We have listened to your feedback and taken the first contest into account. With that having been said, the Custom Countdown has new rules! There are TWO AMENDMENTS to the original set of rules, and an entirely new stipulation to part of the contest. WFigs Members are still allowed to make submissions for the original top 5. However, there will also be a CHALLENGE SUBMISSION! We will name a custom figure for members to compete on. This figure will be in ADDITION TO the Top 5 action figures. The contest's timeframe has been extended to allow a window for development. BOTH the first place winner of the top 5 countdown and the individual winner of the challenge figure will receive prizes!Please be sure to read the new rules below and refresh your memory of the old ones before entering. Hope to see your submissions soon! CHALLENGE FIGURE:Sheamus!Let's see who can develop the best Sheamus figure! Previously made figures are welcome. Both Mattel and Jakks figures are welcome. Newly created submissions are welcome, as long as they are complete. Please, no progress photos. ------------------------------------------ Customs Countdown Rules: 1. RULES AND REGULATIONS 1. All entries must be submitted with a HIGH QUALITY photograph. This means not blurry, out of focus, or difficult to see. Resizing for acceptable viewing on WrestlingFigs is not a requirement, but a plus. 2. A thread will be opened with two dates (Example: April 6th – April 13th). During this time period, submissions can be posted. Feel free to judge, compliment and critique the work of others in this thread. At the end of the time period, the thread will be LOCKED temporarily so submissions can be reviewed. Submissions will not be accepted after the end date listed. 3. When posting a submission, mark at the top of your post SUBMISSION FOR ENTRY in bold. Do NOT mark posts without an entry figure with this label. Any posts with this mark that do not contain a submission will be deleted. 4. All entries must be COMPLETED works. Incomplete entries (entries that are works in progress or unfinished) will be DISQUALIFIED. 5. Only one submission per contest period per entrant. 6. It is ok to submit figures that you have previously worked on for the competition. It is not a requirement to work on a NEW figure for each competition. 7. IF YOU SUBMIT THE CUSTOM WORK OF SOMEONE ELSE, YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED AND BANNED FROM PARTICIPATING IN THE FUTURE. Do NOT try to pass off a custom figure as your own if you did not make it. 8. All types of figures (Mattel, Jakks, LJN, McFarlane etc.) are accepted in the competition. Keep in mind, however, that the competition is for WRESTLING ONLY. Other properties will not be eligible for entry (figures such as a 12 Rounds Danny Fisher or a Highlander: Endgame Road Bandit would be exceptions.) 9. The winners will receive recognition for their customs work. Winners will be ranked from 1st place to 5th place to round out a top 5. 10. Any overtly negative or demeaning comments about another’s work will result in DISQUALIFICATION AND A BAN FROM PARTICIPATION. This is a competition purely for fun and mistreatment of others will not be tolerated. Amendment 1: All submissions are now required to have a SHORT DESCRIPTION of the work done. Please explain in moderate detail exactly what work you did on your figure including additions, painting/sculpting, or decal application. Detail, however brief, is important.Amendment 2: All submissions (as long as they are not previously chosen) can be entered up to 3 times in the Custom Countdown. After the third submission, if your entry has not been chosen, it is no longer valid in its entry.Enjoy the competition, the custom work of others and thanks for participating!

Just so we don't walk that fine line of what's fair and isn't, I'm going to have to say no. That also goes for any figures "enhanced" by Ralph's clothing, etc. We'll have to stick to self-made clothes, so of course we will need everyones' help in calling that out as well. i have a question also, can we submit a custom AND sheamus, or must it be both? I am pretty sure you can do either or both. Showstopper is right, you can do either or both. You can enter in the challenge figure AND in the Top 5.

Ok, thanks, wanted to make sure before I entered my DDP with a shirt I got from Emming

Sheamus is a really good figure for a thing like this, what with his unique look

Why should somebody go out of their way and take time to answer a bunch of questions that are already answered. If you want the answers, YOU take the time and read the rules and the rest of the thread. Quit being lazy.

SUBMISSION FOR ENTRYFigured I'd throw my hat in the mix...why not? This is a Vladimir Kozlov custom I did to match his current look. Brief description...I swapped a Vladimir figure's head & torso onto a DH Smith waist & thigh part. Then I added Heidenreich boots. The white paint was done by me as well. Added the red DA kneepads & red elbow pads to complete.
