This is probably the stupidest question about customizing, but to put a cracked torso back together you glue it, right? Sometimes if you are able to crack it without damaging it, you can put it back together without glue, as the pegs will go back into the holes. It may not stay perfectly together if you play with the figures, but for display, it's perfectly fine. |

So this is a fix-up I've done half-heartedly a few times, even sold a headless version at one point for a tidy sum. But I figured I'd bite the bullet and make one of my own with a Jakks head and thanks to some of you guys, switched out the calves for SCSA ones. The recipe is nothing new, Dean's done this fix-up years ago. If you look now on eBay there's at least 5 of these Goldberg fix-ups for sale, and I wanted to add this one too but I ended up liking it too much now:   Jakks Goldberg Head. elbow pads HBJ torso/trunks/thighs Brock Lesnar arms SCSA knee joints/calves/boots |

Just joined the forum... Wanted to say that I am in complete awe of the customizing skills some of you guys have. So many awesome custom and fixed-up figures in this thread... Wish I had the money and skills to get into it myself.

A quick Shane McMahon I threw together... Nothing special and not accurate to any specific attire!  Still adjusting my Radicalz set - Saturn is a constant work in progress as I can't decide on a body, he also needs different calves to add height! Benoit just needs logos painting and the wrist tape painted over to remove Cena's logos. Malenko is just about done unless I decide to paint an accurate attire, and Guerrero is just about done - I'm considering painting the tape black!  |

Bandy - I have the same Goldberg and I think its his best look, even though in photos the skintone of the head looks a little off
Apoc - Nice Diesel fix up
"Deadman"13tazz13 - Shane looks good. What head is on malenko?

He no longer has those cocker spaniel ears hanging down beside his head. Makes the head look much better Oh, and Saturn looks so good, love him and Guerrero most, Benoit and male ok look good too, I'm not a fan of that Benoit scan but that's just my personal preference. That saturns almost perfect tho |

Apocalypse, that Diesel looks great. It really takes it from a "pretty good" figure to a much better likeness.

Thanks man, it's something I wanted to do for a while. I think it makes a huge difference. I was tempted to give him the mullet and some shades but didn't want to take the risk of it looking bad now that you can't get diesel for less than 40-50
