Dean great Million dollar man.
That head looks like a nice start for Owen the hair line is off really bad though. I also understand that it was photoshopped but looks promising.

I remember people were using The Jakks Deluxe Kenny Dykstra head for Owen Hart Customs at one point that you may want to look into. The head may not be in scale with Mattel though; I'm not sure. From my experience with Jakks and Mattel fix-ups(which is very little), I found that Jakks heads are to be too big for the Mattel basic bodies, but they don't look too bad on the elite scale figures.   I dig it! |

Repaint of Kane's mask, also repainted his eye makeup red.  Believe it or not I actually spent about 2/3 hours trying to repaint Taker's mask. I I repainted it about 2 different times. I'll probably end up stripping the paint and redoing it tomorrow.  I also removed the elbow pads, glossed the boots.  |

The Lashley looks awesome, I'm in the process of painting mine right now. Citadel's mournfang brown matches the skin tone perfectly.

As we just tried painting a hardy head and it looks TERRIBLE. I can't paint eyes or eyebrows, or lips. I also don't have the paint to really do it and horrible at mixing colors for other stuff. Just been sticking to standard single colors like black/white/red/brown etc.. |

The head doesnt seem to be too far off on yours from the pictures at least, on mine in person it was terrible. |

I remember when people got ripped on the customs board for using decals back in the day, haha. Everybody loves it nowadays. Same here, and I never could understand why. Decals look more like factory-produced figures. But, then again, the way some people used to do them here was to print them off on computer paper and glue them on, and that never looks good. |

Honestly making a Samoa Joe basic is very difficult task especially with the lack of parts for guys his size. All the heavy guys except Tensai has singlets so the only choice would be him. However if you decide to go elite you will have more choices available such as: Elite 4 Big Show has removable singlet perfect torso Dusty Rhodes I've seen a couple people use this and it turned out great Legends 3 Hacksaw Jim Duggan Legends Nikolai from 2 Pack with Sheik Demolition bodies are great from Legends 4 Anyways, I hope this post helps you narrow down your choices for making a Mattel version of Samoa Joe. |

Someone in the old thread made an AE Jericho out of e20 Christian, can someone post it? I posted this one last month. Its an attire Jericho wore in WCW but could work for Attitude Era as well. The head is a Jakks R3 head and the boots are some random non-Mattel kickpad boots I did some modding on so he is the same height as a Mattel Jericho.   |

@ SGguy The new head looks great on nWo Macho! I wonder if softening up the bandana will help it fit more. |

Well here is everyone's favorite Kassius Ohno! All that is left, is to mod the "No's" into "KO's" and remove a bit more from him and add his signature arm cover. But other than that he is done, and now I can finally reunite the Kings Of Wrestling. |
