Hey Guys, I was wondering, has anyone tried doing Mattel Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch customs yet? I really wanna add to my Tag Team Division and I liked the team while it lasted. I think a Jim Duggan body would be a good base for Murdoch, but I would have to change the Legs because he's too tall. How about Cade though, I'd like to do them both Elite so if I could get some suggestions that'd be great! Thanks guys . Dallas. PS. Is there anyone with the same Jim Duggan body but with black trunks? That'd make it a bit easier for me too. So let me know haha. Thanks again.

Your Murdoch idea is great. Lance Cade could be made out of a Cody Rhodes figure.

Oh snap! That's right huh? I was thinking the same for Cade but I don't like the Red. Almost all the Tag-team wrestlers I have are in red and it bugs me for some reason haha. Anyone have the same body as Funk but in any different color? If it comes down to it, I'll probably just use Funk .

Thinking of going bold for my first real custom, and making Misawa. Thinking of using an Iron Sheik body (2pack) and maybe a Samoa Joe or Don Muraco head as a base. Any suggestions for a head?
Thanks.

I don't know how easy it'd be but, the first (and only?) DA Booker had some killer looking dreads .

DA Booker has the best dreads, the RA Version are too much behind the head you cant see them from a front on view, the DA version kinda spills out onto the shoulders a little bit

So, no luck on finding parts for the Cade and Murdoch yet but I have a new Idea flowing . I'm buying Senshi off of a friend and I like it and everything but I'd like it better if it were a Mattel figure. I got a picture from my bud a while back compared with and Elite Rey Mysterio and the skin tones match pretty well. I was wondering, do you guys think the TNA Senshi head would look good on one of those "Evolution of Rey" (or whatever it's called) figures in tights? I think it'd look alright. I mean, there both around the same height and the body works pretty well for a Kaval. Let me know your thoughts on this . Feel free to take the Idea for yourselves too!

Heads needs hollowed out. I try this already and it doesn't fit. Yeah but that's no big deal. I used an exacto blade on my Jeff Hardy and it fits pretty well, it moves too.

Giving my first go at sculpting. Decided on Darkness Muta instead of Misawa. Almost tempted to just buy one of those NJPW/AJPW figures and throw the head on a Mattel.

Thanks NickJ! I accidentally bought the sculpey that glows in the dark haha. It's been working out okay though. Working in a 3D space is so much harder than drawing, but it's going to be a fun medium.

Anyone know what happened to the Mattel Fix-up thread? I was gone for 2 days and now it's gone! Any info is appreciated, that was one of my favorite threads.

Anyone with experience in swapping heads with NJPW/AJPW stiff figures to Mattel?
Any help is appreciated, not sure if it's worth spending the dough. Don't want it to be too small, or hollow...

Working on a Kaval Custom . I'm using a Chavo Elite and Jericho Lower legs and boots. It's turning out pretty good so far, just hollowing out the head now. Then the hard part, painting! . What color should I use? I'm thinking Green.

I found his white attire from Survivor Series 2010 to be the best, in my opinion. Here's a vid:
