has anyone tried to put this hair on a bray whatt or undertaker for that hair on your face look? I haven't figured out how to get hair off properly without tearing it to shreds. lol. I probably wouldn't mind doing it but it looks more like dreds than anything else. I swear if they ever put out a decent scan of Bret Hart I will buy one to keep moc, one loose, and one to cover every other figure of his I have.

Debut Model, Will post accessory pics soon, waiting on a cashemere sweater I seen someone use the hair from the WM31 Elite Undertaker with the mullet painted black for a Strike Force Rick Martel, I think it might could work for the early Model gimmick too.

Well I got around to finishing my Jeff Hardy custom. It's kind of a mix-and-match between a few attires. I mimicked a concept a former member posted last year. The head is just a place holder. I have a TTL Jeff coming next week and I'll be re-painting that one once it arrives. I guess I'm happy with it though. The shirt looks very white but in person it's not so bright. I used Apoc's tip about mixing some gray paint in with the white. Worked out well I think.

I saw E35 Harper on a Target shelf today. First time I saw it up close. All I could think of was...."If it weren't for the height difference and the lack of an appropriate head that would make a great base for A SKINNER CUSTOM!!!" Now the wheels in my brain are turning... I think Skinner wore khaki colored cargo pants tucked into boots. So maybe a repaint of Shield member with with Elite 35 Harper shirt, I guess.

Here is a Blackjack Mulligan I put together. Used a Crush body, Barry Windham boots, Trent Barreta head with trimmed locks and painted thick stache, Kane hands and painted a Bob Orton hat black.

You don't like my hair? I think it looks pretty accurate

I did intend to do it based on that as I always loved that figure as a child but in the end I decided on the blue kneepads to resemble what he wore at Chi-Town Rumble against Barry Windham. can you at least picture him in that same pose and angle? that could be epic

Bandalero-Parts have been ordered. Thanks for your help! Any ideas for a Freebirds set? I did a Michael PS Hayes once: Elite Christina head with Macho Man shades modified (has that lip smirk Hayes had, with painted-on beard). I know he was thin very early in his career, but the George Steele body is the most appropriate in my opinion for the hairy chest, arms, and belly. For the tights it was an easy Jerry Lawler lower-half - the look was to duplicate his thinner legs. Black tights is a good base if you want to add designs. Tall white boots finished it off. I lucked into an auction for a proto DM Macho Man that had that pleather jacket with no designs: I've always thought about a jimmy Jam garvin too - would be easy because it's the same body all the way, but not sure about the face - however I really thing Hillbilly Jim's hair is the perfect hair for Garvin. I've seen great Terry Gordy customs on eBay - Use his jakks head on any of the demolition bodies, with black knee sleeves that Mattel passes off as knee pads, and tall black boots and you're done.

Yes, it's a Trent Baretta head that I trimmed the hair off the back and painted a thick stache on. Closest to Mulligan I could come up with.

I keep thinking a Sandow would work ok for him especially if you used the HBJ hair?

I don't have a wyatt so i don't know the size of his crotch piece.. i only know shango share same crotch with slaughter, duggan,volkoff, steele, sheik ect, And lesnar style body can go on them as well. if that helps..
