Jay's Orton is one of the most magnificent customs I've ever seen, and that's coming from someone who was around with the likes of Baity.

I am absolutely blown away by both of Jay's customs. Both figures totally capture the emotion of their personas.

Gatecitysinner vs. Jay (Any-era Stan Hansen):
Both customs are phenomenal, and represent diverse periods in Hansen’s career.
GCS- Having one photo posted is a detriment to your custom. I didn’t realize the depth of effort on your behalf, until I viewed the extra photos. The molded chaps, vest, and pads are remarkable. I am unfamiliar with the attire (as I’m not the biggest Hansen follower), but nonetheless, it is clean, crisp, and extremely well done.
Jay- Your custom is also astonishing. When I think of Hansen, this is what I picture; a cowboy hat, a cowbell, and an irate facial expression. I love that you completely modded the head. The cowbell was an essential accessory (I couldn’t locate that cowbell for my Rhodes, hence the smaller version). Last point; I love the rustic looking boots. The abrasions and wear marks make this custom more realistic. Very well done.
TheAxeHennig vs. Titantrap (Pre-WWF Dustin Rhodes):
Mine- This figure was fun to make. I bought the straight-faced Goldust on Ebay, and the seller sent me the “kissing face” Goldust. I had to modify the head, as I was running out of time. The top of the head is Goldust, and the bottom portion is a heavily modded Joey Styles. The vest was Razor Ramon’s vest, which I painted white/red, and added the red leather fringes. The boots are from Barry Windham, and the body is a Best of RA Ric Flair (with the hands switched out).
Titantrap: Nice figure. I’m confused about the era. On pg. 20, you unveiled the match, and described it as being “pre-WWF” Dustin Rhodes. Nonetheless, the figure is nice. I remember Dustin’s “religious conversion” period where he wore the handlebar mustache. Very nice.
Battle Royal:
I’m not going to give a full review for the “Over the Top.” All participants brought their “A” game. It’s nice to see a successful show.
Without further delay, I vote #1, Man Up’s Hogan off. The custom is sloppy at points, and the skintone is corpse-like.

For the battle royal.
Eliminating Guster.
I like the body and all the accessories but the head kills the figure for me. The head is a little bit too cartoony looking. The upper face doesn't match well with the mouth. The paint is smooth but the head is the downfall.

i'm going to give my battle royal vote for Man Up Customs, the skintone is very gray looking and there are multiple places where the white undercoat is showing through.

Guess I'll get round two started. I was torn with this one. I had to scrutinize the most minute details.
This round, I vote Titantrap's Rob Terry off. Out of the remaining few, this one was the least "stand-out" to me.
