The Lethal Weapon w/shredded physique and accurate arms That is SO much better than the Blackman figures we got. Great work!

I wish the skin tones matched better so I probably won't be keeping it this way, but here is D-Lo with Fully Loaded series 1 Rock arms (removed tattoo) and purple wrist tape. I see what you mean about the color difference, but like therealworldchampion said, it's still better than D'Lo having Vader arms. Love that you added purple wrist tape in that shade. That's exactly what I would want for that figure. The Lethal Weapon w/shredded physique and accurate arms This is excellent. As good as DTA Tour 2 Blackman is, it pales in comparison to this usage of parts. HHH torso and Billy Gunn arms go great together. Also gives Blackman a neck

Also gives Blackman a neck Thanks for the kind words, folks As for the neck, I had to put a bit of cotton up in the peg hole then wrap a small rubber band around the peg to tighten it up. It's not the torso that was causing the no neck issue, it's that the peg hole in Blackman's head is super deep.

I swapped out Blackman's BCA sculpt with the TTL scan for, imo, the ultimate Blackman figure. I planned to do this from the beginning but I didn't know how the size and skintones would match up. I'm happy that it worked out so well. Vince fix-up with a TTL head; Brian Pillman with the STOMP torso and HHH Series 6 arms. The arms sit a bit high and are probably too big for Pillman, but Jarrett figures have the same arms and he and Pillman were comparable in size irl Back of Pillman; Patriot updated with the Breakdown Austin torso to give him a more size and height

BCA just can't compare to Real Scan likenesses, which open up so many more possibilities. Are those heads easy to remove? It's gotta be tough to find arms with wrist bands/tape that fit with the small S.T.O.M.P. torso. DOA? Headbangers, maybe? I like that Austin torso. Between that and Rocky's pants, Jakks got A LOT of usage out of parts that originated from the Off The Mat set.

Just a little heat or boiling water and they pop right off. Yeah I'm not real happy with how those arms look on Pillman. Headbangers arms would look alot better ( therealworldchampion mentioned this in one of his youtube videos as well) but I don't have any extra headbanger figures unfortunately . The OTM set overtook the Sid body as go-to parts for the BCA line. There was so much hit and miss, especially considering other parts Jakks had at their disposal.

And headbanger arms on my crash

Wanted to share of some of my latest customs. I mainly post on the facebook group of BCA custom figures and then post here later on when I remember. So first up is something im sure we all wanted growing up, a real ring attire Big Show! I pretty much used a rotary tool to get the shirt and legs grinded down to use some modeling clay on to fix up afterwards. Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley - another figure we never got in the BCA line. I used the TTL torso and head on a Chainz legs and arms. Pat Patterson & Gerald Brisco - another set of figures we all wanted but never got. The Corporation is now more complete more interesting customs coming soon!

zappa2510 those all look great. I especially like Big Show, Brisco and Patterson. All four were definitely huge omissions from the BCA line.

That Big Show is awesome. Sure would've saved me buying a few Big Show's had that come out. In hindsight I don't know why I just didn't buy the shelf warming Smash & Slam Giant or those other WCW figures

please make mean street posse! A friend of mine on the facebook group made some about a year back. As you can see with the photos they are random heads as they never made any of the mean street posse in figure form. another set of figures lost to us. Also to note I am considering making Big Shows ring attire for those who want it. All I need is a Big Show figure. Most of the work was grinding down the figure, adding clay then painting. Was also thinking of doing an Andre at some point.

I wonder if that's actually the E61 Shane head, or a repainted E50. It seems far less offensive than all the photos I've seen of the E61. Maybe the person did some retooling as well? I'm just curious because it looks better than I thought that arrangement would.
