Awesome-Now we can have dusty and dick murdoch as a tag team! Is the chris candido head for sale in your head shop yet? Warsman your doing for wrestling figures what Dr.mego and "notdolls" did for mego customizers-creating endless possibilities. If you've looked around my site, you have probably seen the Mego customs I've posted. They were the inspiration (or better yet--they provided the know-how) to do this. Candido's head isn't close to being ready yet, sorry. If you've seen the list of heads I have "Coming Soon," it's very lengthy, and I couldn't possibly roll them out all at once (and still fill orders) Wars |

Love Dickie Murdoch's fig, you are a messiah in our little world! I too have done a Murdoch figure...I always wanted to put skinny, Buddy Roberts legs on a Regal body for Murdoch, as he had chicken legs. I can't torso split to save my life though, it was an epic fail...

I too have done a Murdoch figure...I always wanted to put skinny, Buddy Roberts legs on a Regal body for Murdoch, as he had chicken legs. I can't torso split to save my life though, it was an epic fail... I agree about Murdoch's chicken legs! This one is going to an order, I might remake mine with skinny legs. You might try this for leg swapping: boil and pop! I submerge a figure in boiled (not boiling!) water for 30-40 seconds. Then I rotate the leg up towards the torso, pulling it away from the body (make sure and do this so as to not marr or cut the softened leg rubber with the hard pelvic plastic!) Once you rotate it once around, It pops out on its own! Then carefully trim some of the excess ruber away from the leg swivel and reheat it in the water for 20-30 seconds and then push it like HECK into the hole of the pelvis you want it in! Works like a charm! Wars |
