That's really cool, the pic looks very glossy and how did you make that Benoit dude?

yeah AdamBomb and I use light tents (I think his is home made, I took the easy way out heh). The gloss effect is a little photographer-trick - just a ceramic white tile from Home Depot, bounces off the light too. As for my Benoit fix-up, I used his screaming head scan that came with a number of different RA versions (this one with the yellow rabid wolverine tights). But I think why the head doesn't look too big is because I used a Terry Funk torso, it's a tad larger than Pillman's torso, at least in the traps. And yeah, it's a Matt Hardy purple tights. I am going for this look:

Those all look really good. My only complaint is that your WWF Next Generation pic is very inaccurate. None of those guys were really involved in that era (and if they were, their gear is from a different 'era".)

None of those guys were really involved in that era (and if they were, their gear is from a different 'era".) You're right, Wikipedia has "Next Generation" from 1994-1998 and most of these attires are circa '90-'93 - Jake and Snuka wore those exact attires at the '92 Rumble, and Savage/Warrior was WM7 in '91, Undertaker debuted at Survivor Series '90. But I'm not sure if fans consider 1990 - 1993 part of the Golden era (to me that means the 80s). 1990-1993 is probably the "Hasbro Years" and maybe that's what I'll refer to it as in the future. But those figures were grouped by their attire more than anything else.

Cool setup Bandy! What did you do to fix the height on Duggan and Perfect?

I should probably know this, but what base did you use for Flair? I MUST do this one myself!

Funk's torso was part of my Benoit, another Funk gave my Bob Orton some height and bulk, and great supply of old-school black knee pads. Cool setup Bandy! What did you do to fix the height on Duggan and Perfect? Duggan's height was fixed with a pair of Jack Swagger calves (same skin-tone). Didn't bother to change Curt Henning since I don't mind his height as much.

Wow no Terry Funk..for shame. lol as much as I appreciate 70s Funk and Dory Jr. winning the NWA world title, the Funker to me will always be in his iconic striped tights. L2 Funk is great for customs though.
