probably spending way too much time and effort on this guy than i should. pretty much a work in progress, still have to touch up the face, sculpt some wrist tape and do the tights. as you can see it was a pillman body but the perfectionist in me wanted to ensure he was the correct scale. lopped off some height from the shins and reattached it  |

another simple austin fix up. felt that the original figure was too skinny and sought to fix that. swapped out the arms from a jakks figure and replaced the upper legs from a demolition ax. gotta add the wrist tape on as well  |

Has anybody purchased Ralph's "Funk U" gear for Mattel Terry Funk?
I've been thinking about getting it but then I'd have to get some black knee pads and black boots since that is what he wore.

what i'm working on, big Dave is my 2nd favorite out of the original Nexus, and i hated that they gave him the big Zeke treatment and made him tiny. thus this is my fix up.  a shot for size comparison.  |

 ;D I like that Rock, great job. I wonder if the Rock figure in the 2-pack will be exactly like this one? |

Hulkamania 4 LIFE, is that pants from Ralph, right? I'd like to make one like yours using the EG Rock figure with its pants and the RTWM shirt. |

I think they'd fit in perfectly with mattel's regular lineup. it's the small things like repainting shango's bone necklace that really make the figures pop |
