Thanks but I didn't do anything to the hair. I just repainted the face to match the Mattel body.

It's cool that you can display your stuff. I'm single again, and let's be honest... openly displaying action figures can freak out a pretty girl, haha. I've had girlfriends run the spectrum from flat out laughing at me about collecting to one who encouraged me to collect to another one who would put them in really inappropriate positions when I left the room. Poor Evan Bourne. He'll never recover from what Mark Henry did to him. :-(

Ahh...what happened to the old days when I needed to pick up 2 of every DC female hero because she always wanted Daddy's toys? sniff...sniff...sniff. Man the time flies.

AMAZING!!! Any chance of a better pic of the road warriors with those belts? Are those NWA or AWA belts? Where'd you pick those up?

Great collection man! Just curious after seeing the link...do you still have the Jakks figures displayed as well? This is great. was wanting to make a classic Benoit if I found an extra Pillman for cheap. [/quote] This looks amazing!! After seeing this I knew I was gonna have to make one for my collection. Just ordered a R3 HHH on ebay and picked up a WM Heritage HHH @ WMart today. How much painting did you have to do? What kind of paint did you use to match the Mattel skintone? Did you have to do any extra modding to the head like dremeling out the inside or anything?

Thanks. Yes...As a matter of fact if you look in the pic of the 3 Basic shelves together you'll see some of the Jakks CS below them.
Benoit - I think I did hollow out the head a little to get it to fit on the neck better. Other than that I did nothing to him.
Triple H - all I did was print out a pic of the logo I found online and repaint the skin tone of the face. I just mixed some Apple Barrel bright red, Apple Barrel Cotton Candy and Anita's All-Purpuse Acrylic blush until I got the shade I liked.

That elite HHH with R3 head is amazing! If only thats what the HHH figure had looked like instead of that awful headscan of Mattels.

I just added a custom Magnificent Muraco to the original post. That elite HHH with R3 head is amazing! If only thats what the HHH figure had looked like instead of that awful headscan of Mattels. Thanks. Personally I like all 3 of Mattel's scans. Awesome collection PJ, Which one is your favorite? I have quite a few - EG/Legends/DM -tied between EG Piper/L1 Hawk/L4 Orndorff/L6 MDW Von Erich& DM3 Trips. Basics - B5 Hurricane, RRH Orton, B10 Triple H Elites - E8 Regal/WM26 HHH/E9 Orton But if I count fixups then it's my Legends 2-Pack Piper with EG head & attire

PJ, Magnificent Muraco looks great. The extra little shoulder width makes a huge difference.

I mixed some for a custom Unmatched Fury HBK and it looked really good at the time.....then it dried and didn't match at all, was too bright

Thanks. Muraco is someone I've wanted since Mattel announced the plans for a Legends line. I still hope we get a real Mattel Muraco, but this'll do for now.
