Does sandow match with Guerrero skin tone wise? I'm looking for some smaller arms on Eddie but he's the only one I can think of that looks similar Or what about rock? Rock and Sandow don't match. Your best bet for smaller arms would be either Sin Cara or Chavo Arms.

Chavo Guerrero is a good one for smaller arms on Eddie but then Eddie won't have his tattoo, which I think looks great on his figures.

I don't understand why people have such trouble with skin tones... Maybe it's just cause I have basically one of every character.
Eddie shares a skin tone with Primo & Epico (NOT Primo & Carlito), Matadores, Rey, Sin Cara, Chavo, Del Rio, and Usos. Their skin tone is pretty different from the tan one(s) used on Orton, HHH, Sandow, Santino or the one used on Rock, Rikishi, and Reigns.

Didn't want to have 3 replies in a row so I deleted that other one... but I whipped this up cause I had an extra Miz body laying around... Just for fun. In case you don't understand the two sunglasses, he for some reason put Miz's sunglasses on over his sunglasses on Smackdown the other night:

Nice work perfectlyrudeI have the same Hogan shirt on my custom. I cut the neck line a bit so it swoops down a bit lower and looks more accurate. Great choice for the headscan PS love the username

Great choice for the headscan PS love the username Thanks brother my username actually dates back to 2003 on the old honkytonkman.com boards I resurrected it again when I joined these boards :-) My hulk shirt is literally from the last order that Ralphie himself made. Hulk's Head & shirt are going to Carry over to his matty fig when it comes out. This mega powers set is essentially for my son, Randy is already his I just threw some savage parts on a cleaned up Del Rio body, then he gets this Hulk when the official comes out :-)

I am new here so I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post this
I currently have several Jakks R3 heads that I would like to convert to Mattel. Ideally I would like Elites, but Basics would do. I am only displaying them
Would really appreciate any recipes, suggestions or info
I want to use the following Jakks heads
Spike Dudley Kurt Angle Test Tajiri Benoit Jericho (with goatee from Royal Rumble '01 I think) Ryno
Any help would be appreciated, Wlite, Basic or combos of both
Thanks

Or you could sculpt overalls. WWE Dudleyz: Daniel Bryan upperhalf and arms, bushwhacker lower half Kurt Angle - British Bulldog body with TTL singlet, or WM 2? Jack Swagger Test - The basic kane that just came out painted, with an elite barrett torso Tajiri - Daniel Bryan torso, painted arms, and Referee HBK pants Chris Benoit - Brian Pillman with acetoned and repainted cena arms. Jericho - Any HBK or Edge with acetoned tights and jericho arms. Rhyno - Either Bruno Sammartino with kneepads and thinner arms (I'd say RVD or basic austin arms with RVD fists) with a cloth singlet, or a completely repainted Big E Langston figure. Pretty much none of these come easy except Benoit, Tajiri, and Spike

Oh, Thank you, perfectlyrude! Mattel's Savage figures, especially the ones in trunks, look RIDICULOUS from a size perspective. Your fix-up looks perfect. Good job, man!

Watch Survivor Series 89 when randy is in the ring with bret. They are virtually the same height and body mass.

Watch Survivor Series 89 when randy is in the ring with bret. They are virtually the same height and body mass. I was actually watching their match from SNME in 1987 earlier today, and realized the very same thing. It's always bugged me, but seeing how much better you've tackled the figure, it just makes it all the more worse. Not to get too off-topic, though; did you use the Sandow body, or Billy Gunn's? Not sure which one of those is closer to Savage's skintone, since I believe there is a subtle difference between the two.

L.O.D. I haven't followed the LOD figures much but I believe you put the vests from the Legends figures on the Elite 30 this creating the figures on the left? Correct me if I'm wrong.
