The winners for the WrestlingFigs Custom Countdown have been chosen!
Here is a Figure Insider video showcasing their work and bringing a whole new spotlight to the world of wrestling figure customization!
Enjoy and thank you for entering. Great, wonderful work from all who entered and I really enjoyed seeing your customizations as I'm sure everyone else did.
There will be minor rule ammendments for the next edition of the contest, but for the most part it worked out extremely well and I'm glad to have been able to be a small part of setting this up.
Be on the lookout for the next edition!

Yeah that's my fault. Really sorry about that. Thought I had seen it listed as Beyond somewhere. Knew deep down it was Beyondo! I'm sure he'll enter and place in future contests... |

Sweet! Thank you Tom! Thank you Tom! Congrats to all the winners! I feel bad for Beyondo though..First he gets his named botched and he's in second place  |

Haha oh come on now it's not that big of a deal. Things will be fine for Beyondo and everyone knows it's him around here. Just correct people who mention differently, that's all!

Quit complainin Warhead, I'm sure it's an honor just to be nominated. --- Loved the first half, Tom... superb acting haha. And nice choices for a Top 5, although I feel like these are selections from the past year. Maybe you should tone it back and say they have to be recent customs (although that would be harder to verify). |

If I were complaining.. it would sound a little like this..: "Wah wah Tom! You should have said my name with more enthusiasm!" Wah! Why was I number 5!? I should have been number 3! Wah!" And it truly is an honor to have my name mentioned. Have any idea what it's like to have your hard work acknowledged? Please cut me some slack Smurfy. |

I thought Curry Man and Glacier were the 2 best on the custom countdown.
The jacket on Warrior was extremely detailed and amazing looking. But the custom itself was slightly less spectacular than Curry or Glacier.

Pretty neat! Fun to see the customs people make! Wish I had the patience to make these, would love to use them on my animated show! Can't wait to see future episodes of this! Thanks for sharing! |

Hey, that was pretty neat, didn't think a video was going to be made for this.
It'd be cool if in the future, rather than participants posting their older customs, they post new ones instead. Maybe that would spark some life into this board, and inspire people to make new customs.

Good job on the countdown. The intro was really good and added a nice touch to the countdown. What kind of rule amendments are in the works? Even though I was one of the ones that submitted previous work, I wouldn't mind a rule making the figures be more recent. Might give some of us that haven't made a whole lot lately some encouragement to make something.

They were all very cool figures. Can't go wrong with the Warrior (Zombie or with a sweet duster), Curry Man was hot, and Kane looked very cool, from a movie that I was totally surprised that I enjoyed.
But I thought Glacier was the coolest. If we could get him, Mortis, and Wraith as legends figs? Sweet. Great job all around, guys.

Wow, guess that will be the last custom countdown. Weird that your "custom experts" don't know my name and aren't smart enough to just read it and then spell it. That is a slap in the face to me, but putting a deepfreeze custom at #1 is a slap in the face to all of us. If you had any idea about customizing, you'd know why. I can't imagine any respectable customizer participating in these jokes again and getting judged by "experts"

You have a high opinion of yourself if you think all board members should know who you are. Lighten up, Tom was trying to do somthing fun, and I enjoyed it. |

I know a lot of you guys take plastic figurines very seriously, but it's reeeaaalllyyy not that big of a deal. Just really uncalled for comment, imo. |
