okay so I know I've been bugging you guys lately about different figures with white shoulders with either standard or BAF-style connections. Since Mattel aint doing it, here's my work-in-progress refree: Used latest Finn Balor forearms for the interchangeable hands, 10 count, pin-count, maybe even a 2-count (using Aiden English or upcoming Orton hands). Ricardo BAF body/legs, Shane's sleeves, and Bobby Heenan's shoulders since that's the only white-based BAF shoulder in existence. Actually Jimmy Hart also has white build a figure shoulders.

What other figures have the sting laceless boot mold? Basic or elite. I think an elite alberto del rio had a dull yellow boot years ago. Any others? The actual same mold the only one I know of is a couple of Heath Slaters. Del Rio's is slightly different as is Lawlers and Drew McIntyres. NXT Roman Reigns & The first elite Zack Ryder in the 1 legged tights.

I need to get me some of these. But this killed me xD lol. Those bastards at Mattel really decided to undership Race in a BAF Set. If you're not specifically wanting the Harley Race figure, I believe you could use Teddy Long baf arms with a hand swap.

Nasty Boyz have the best upper legs. But Calves need a swap Thought about them, but their trunks piece is for a fatter torso and would protrude. Can't remember if they have the boil & pop hips, because it would be cool to experiment with those legs on regular size trunks. It might not be worth it in the long run to collect all those parts for a make-shift doom tag team. How about Dolph Ziggler? He has thick thighs.

Experimented with something for the personal collection!! Dremeled down the hair, then resculpted it shorter and with side burns. Let me know what you guys think! The work looks really good but not sure if the hair and chops work with that big grin. It's the lack of ears that bothers me most.

I think Flair is supposed to be taller than JJ in real life but in figure form it ends up being the other way around.

Has there been an elite in black denim jeans? Or is the cheapest thing to do just get a Dean Ambrose and paint it black? R-Truth had some baggy black jeans. You might try The first DM John Cena with some different lower legs like from Jeff Hardy or something.

ineyeseekay could we have a side pic of the original head with the bigger body? That head looks like a bobblehead. Sure I can do that in a little bit when I get home. It litterally does kind of bobble like I have to keep adjusting it so he's not shoe gazing. I mean staring at the floor. The Mattel JJ head just flat out sucks in my personal opinion.

I just think the Mattel JJ Dillon head is oversized and frankly it looks more like Mae Young than JJ Dillon.

I also thought the JJ Dillon BAF body was too thin. I had an extra Paul Heyman baf body and I used the neck tie from Battle Pack Paul Heyman. I also think the head is massive, I think it's probably more in scale with Jakks instead of Mattel. Before JJ Dillon was announced I made a custom JJ Dillon with a Mattel IRS head with the hair painted. I think I still prefer that, but with the BAF JJ glasses added. Here are a couple pictures. 1 with the BAF JJ head and the other with the custom JJ head. Let me know what you think.

Try the Retro Brock head can you just heat and pop retro heads like you can with basics and elites? I believe so, yes.

So it was the RSC Hall arms? Because I updated my Razor and e51 Hall with the BaF Hitman arms and Triple H arms because the only other figure I could think of that used the RSC Hall arms was the Battle Pack Hall. But with the pads I was joking around and meant the plain black pad was on his other arm in the two pics you posted of the attire. Basic Razor Ramon, The Basic DX Triple H from the Road Dogg battle pack, Basic Billy Gunn from the battle pack with Road Dogg, and Elite 30 Hawk also have the old man BOPPV BAF Bret arms. JBL and Wade Barrett also have them but they are lighter in skin tone. I think Barron Corbin might too.

The elbow pads look wrong on Hall compared to the two photos you posted of them in the attires! But seriously did you give Hall larger shoulders and arms? They look larger than the small ones Mattel game him to me. Yeah, I used RSC Scott Hall which came with larger arms and shoulders. Basic Razor Ramon also has larger arms and shoulders. DM Razor Ramon and Elite 51 Scott Hall have scrawny arms and shoulders by comparison to RSC Exclusive Scott Hall and basic Razor Ramon. I am also not sure why Mattel gave Razor Ramon and both Scott Hall's the Ric Flair and Alberto Del Rio torso. At least the larger arms and shoulders with the vest give the illusion that he had a bigger upper body than Flair, Del Rio, and Sheamus. I think they should have used the Wade Barret/JBL torso for Hall. I didn't end up altering the torso because lack of availability in the skin tone and it would be to harder to nail the chest hair as well as Mattel did. In regards to the elbow pads the photos I provided probably aren't the best examples but if you Google just about any Scott Hall or Razor Ramon photo a majority of the time he has the slightly longer plain black elbow pads on his right arm and the smaller elbow pad with graphic or some design on left arm.
