Hi peeps. Now that I've had some time, I have managed to get some more customs done. Here's a re-paint of a custom I posted. Roddy Piper with the correct coloured boots, and The Undertaker with Urn.   More to come...... |

Hasbros rule, and I'm loving your customs. Some of the skin tones are a little off, but that may just be due to the camera flash or the lighting conditions (they may look fine in person -I run into that problem myself). And the Paul Orndorff isn't quite working for me - it looks too much like Lex Luger just wearing different colored trunks. Despite that, I'm really enjoying seeing these "blasts from the past", and can't wait to see more!

Love the One Man Gang, although he was a bit early for the Hasbro era I always love seeing customs of him and this is a good one.

The hardest bit was making the waistcoat. And the Paul Orndorff isn't quite working for me - it looks too much like Lex Luger just wearing different colored trunks. Despite that, I'm really enjoying seeing these "blasts from the past", and can't wait to see more! I have a couple of figures I'm not too happy about, Orndorff is one of them, the other is Tully Blanchard. I can't seem to find heads that are in the hasbro style and that look a bit like the wrestler(s). |

AAAhhh great to see Hasbro customs.
Great work. I wish you had a better camera though.
What kind of paint are you using?
Highlights for me are the R&B's Hammer, Powers of Pain, Power & Glory and the awesome Steiner repaints.
Great job!

AAAhhh great to see Hasbro customs. Great work. I wish you had a better camera though. Thanks The camera was new when I took the 1st lot of pictures hence the crappy focus. I will be taking some more at some point.What kind of paint are you using? I use Humbrol enamel paints. I find it gives me good coverage and they do quite a lot of standard colours so I don't need to do too much mixing myselfHighlights for me are the R&B's Hammer, Powers of Pain, Power & Glory and the awesome Steiner repaints. Greg took me quite a while to get right so I'm really happy it came out looking the way it did. I love doing tag teams so I'm pretty proud of the way some of them come out.Great job! I'm glad you are enjoying them |

Here's a couple of customs for those of you who like to see figures of Wrestlers who were about during the Hasbro era. The Genius and Mr Perfect (as per picture below)    |

Fantastic work. The paint is smooth and also the style is similar to the original Hasbro style which is key. Awesome work and I love the use of original heads that are modified heavily.

Since you are so good at making Hasbro tag teams, I would love to see a Killer Bees set.
I think they would look great in the Hasbro style

My problem with customs is finding the right head. As you can see from my other customs just sticking a Lex Luger head, with repainted hair, on a body doesn't make the figure look like Paul Orndorff. |
