What do you guys use to remove paint? I have been using nail polish remover with acetone, but it takes forever and I can't get a completely clean surface. use goof off, i've been using it and i know other members use it here. works nicely and doesn't harm the figure. Good tip! What do you use to apply it?

What did you use to do the tatts? Any pics closer? Theyre just the marvel raven arms, fit perfectly and stay on great

Man, I love this! Where did the bitten apple come from? That's such a nice touch.

Dean,
I believe that RA 15 is the Carltio that came with the apple.

Here are a couple of my latest fix ups Here we have an E13 Cody fix up The chest is from E8 Drew McIntyre, the head & upper legs are from an E3 Cody & the bottom legs are from E13 variation. This is how Mattel should have done him, the legs look "buff" with the two styles fused together & the chest fits the codster very well. Next is Andre the Giant, Andre has been given a painted on singlet & a set of DM Undertaker boots to achieve a greater height.

Labeled101 A+++ on that Cody. I might have to do that... I have a spare drew torso. Very clean work on Andre as well.

The Andre is phenomenal! The paint work is flawless! I wish Mattel would've done that! I might steal the idea to swap his boots,too... Thanks for posting these!

That Rhodes is top notch man! I wasn't a fan of the bulky legs, I felt this was a better fit, glad to see you agree!

Thanks for posting these! Thanks C! Andre in my opinion lacked these 2 fixes. With them he is that much better. Now he truly is a GIANT! Glad you enjoyed my contributions to the thread.
