Some accessory fixup I'm not gonna lie... That is just beautiful! Add a beer can and call it a day. I found really nice detailed mini Budweiser beer cans at AC Moore. They're made for dollhouses, but they work great with Mattel figures. The pack I found had Bud, but this gives you a general idea.

muccguy88, it's a Bushwhacker torso. Cool. I think I'm going to try for the Bret torso though since it already has pink outlines and a logo on it.

A few WIPs I've been working on Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka, Hercules, post-match GAB Sting, Iraqi Slaughter, Missing Link, and Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake. All of these have work to be done on them, but I wanted to show a few photos. Big thanks to Gate for the shrunken Sting head. (Sorry for the low-quality iPad photos)

Anyone have any ideas for some good Kevin and Kerry Von Erich Basic fix-ups?
I just got the Legends today, so I have their heads, arms, boots/feet, and jackets. I just need to find fitting Basic bodies.
I'm trying to avoid having to do any painting or logo removing. Any suggestions?

Not sure why anyone would want to turn an elite into a basic but whatever floats your boat ;D Like teamRatedCDS mentioned, basic Trips for Kerry, and I'd say basic Cody for Kevin if the skin tones match

Axe is a f*ckin beast. It's always great when we reach the typical school vacation times of the year, since that's when he seems to update the most. LOVE the head choice on Beefcake.

Thanks, Mase. Actually, all of the figures are completely repainted. I made specific skintones for all the figures. Snuka is a complete repaint. Also, on a side note, I just noticed that every figure has unique torso molds. Thank you, Mattel.
Thanks, Apocalypse. The Beefcake head is actually a DH Smith Mattel head.
Thanks Pride. Nope, no school vacation yet. I seem to have more time from the 4th graders this year though.
