Teddy looks really good but I don't really like the big Wippleman who is my favourite manager figure. It doesn't matter if you don't care about Wippleman though I know you're goal was to make a good Teddy, I used Rey legs for my Teddy Long custom and it looks pretty good. If more Wippleman bodies are made in other colours I hope to do alot of similar fixups one day, I can't believe that Styles reverted to the HUGE suit body because I was going to get a pile of those and a pile of Wipplemans and make some perfectly scaled suited characters. He does as i really think teddy needs this body. Its not i dont care about wippleman cause i do as i wanted his fig from the time i saw the proto. Sure he needs the skinny body but i had to prioritise because jakks have not provided us with enough skinny bodies yet to buy multiples (as i know you do very well ). The wippleman body is great as its quite generic in the colours it has, hopefully there are more bodies released like it so i can have a proper wippleman again. It does suck about the styles although in fairness it only had skinny arms, the torso was still the normal one i believe. Jakks needs to get some of these full skinny bodies out soon though so there dont have to be anymore sacrificial lambs. I know it doesn't matter now but the Styles proto did have the whole Wipplemold in black and red: The huge feet are the best way to tell but I'm sure it is the whole thing. As I said, there's no point thinking about old RA protos now but I am particularly bitter about that change as it was the answer to my last remaining scale problems, albeit a rather expensive answer once I'd bought a load of Wipples for the shirts. But money's not an issue for me anymore where scales concerned, I think that making the small characters small adds so much to the look of a collection that considering how much I've already spent on figures then I may aswell buy whatever figures I need to make it all look right. When I saw that Styles proto I actually emailed Jeremy to say how happy I would be if it was released like that and how it was the solution to the only big problem in CS/RA, but it still got changed The Wipplemold may give figures a bobble headed look but I think it looks alot worse having a small head on a gigantic body. Teddy Long has quite a small body compared to his head anyway and his RA was the opposite way round. BTW Pic credit: fig-images

The Wipplemold may give figures a bobble headed look but I think it looks alot worse having a small head on a gigantic body. . Agreed. Awesome work ۩ kaneisdaman™۩ . I only have the Teddy with the pink jacket, & I agree he looks freakin aweful scale wise. That Harvey body works much better. I hate how my Teddy Long, Brian Kendrick & Funaki figures tower over my Undertaker figures. I don't see why Jakks could not have made a couple of smaller molds years ago for cruiserweights & smaller managers etc.

In my opinion, you should switch the CS9? Godfather hands with the Teddy hands.

BTW Pic credit: fig-images My apologies, it was a long time since i saw that proto which is unfortunately now irrelevant. It would have made the total skinny body count go up to 2 and would have been useful for fixups like these. The only other parts thats been released in Jimmy Lennon in the rocky line has the skinnny arms. It truly sucks the styles got changed because i was hoping on that at first but it got changed so i had to revert back to wippleman. Plus Teddys head is bigger than the rest of his body and he barely has neck showing due to the shirt he wears. One thing about my pics though is it distorts it when taken from an upper angle (AKA the first pic). Im very hapy to have fixed up teddy, just wish we had more of these bodies coming out.

My came out fine anyway, just the flash screws the pics version of the tone.
