hello once again!!! first I just wanna say that you may see my old thread about this and thats because I tried to delete it but didnt realize everybody's comments on it stays which I guess kinda keeps the thread alive,but I did write on it "MODS PLEASE LOCK AND REMOVE" so hopefully they can take care of it. as you can see I have a mild obsession with the undertaker from 1994. we never got an accurate figure from that era. the closest we got was the one from the 3 pack and that sorry for an excuse classic series 1 'taker. so I just wanna show off both versions of what I feel should have been made. hope you like them and enjoy!!   and you can see in this pic that the figure I used has somekind of markings on his thighs and chest. this is how I got the figure unfortunately.  gotta work with only what I have!lol  and here are both that I had made  loose pic of it  if anybody has any comments or suggestions on how to make him look better please dont hesitate. thanks for looking!!  |

Damn I'm in love with these! See these are EXACTLY how Jakks should have done his figures, I love the kickpads, and you actually painted them right too. The attention to detail on the tie is great too.
You have completly captured two perfect looks for Taker here. And I am incredibly jealous. ;D

They're beautiful. ABSOLUTELY perfect. It's simple, well executed, and an excellent choice of parts.

Looks a little awkward with the Sara tattoo, although I'm not certain if he had it back in '94

That's an exceptional custom. I've always said that the best customs are the ones that can stand alongside the retail line and blend in just like a factory job. That open shirt mold and kickers combo looks great on The Undertaker; it's hard to believe Jakks never did it.
As others have said, just get rid of that Sara tattoo and it will be perfect.
One suggestion I have that you might want to take a look at: have you thought of using the CS Matt Hardy hair? I have seen that used on a different Undertaker figure elsewhere, and it looks great. It works really well for the look around '94 where 'Taker had the wet hair over his face.
