dean was right , its a basic leg from the knee down. i have done a few basic to elite boot switches.. and they are a pain. hard to make them look really nice .. so i think a small loss of articulation is ok for the better look..

may be a pain in the arse but would be great if you could show a picture of the basic leg from the knee down attached to the elite leg......
do you lose height at all?

This was was pretty easy just an RA A-Train head on a legends Hillbilly Jim body, added knee pads. Okay this was orgnially supposed to be a sin cara negro, but after realizing that I had no means to make the mask, I decided to take an orginal approach, the head is an ra Ultimo Dragon that I used for an older RA custom so this back more of a transfer custom. i used a tyson kidd body and painted over, this was one of my first full body paint jobs hence the sloppiness. Standard Ric Flair custom used a Legend Pipers body painted the boots, acetoned the socks off aswell as the wrist tapes. This is one of my faveriot customs. I was lucky enough to find a CS 2 Pack of Flar and Windham at TRU a few months back and even more lucky to get it for the sweet price of 6$ With that my Flair and Barry Windham customs were born. I used All Stars Steven Austin body, black electric tape for the gloves, I used Nikali Volkof claves and boots which gave him a nice boost in height so he's in scale. I thought of using the Dusty Rhodes boots but they were just too big. So I used electric tape around the boots to give it the cowboy boots look and painted over it. Lastly is my Great Muta. i actually ordered this off of a member on here for 10 bucks, however there was lot of details missing and the facepaint was poorly done. From what I saw the parts used was DM shawn micheals and DM steamboat head. I repainted the face added the proper details to it, sanded off HBK's tattoo, added the black wrist tape and the finger tape as well as painting over chipped paint on the paints. Hope to hear sme pf your thoughts and if you guys could give me advice painiting smoother I would greatly apperciate it.

Basic Mr. Perfect WWF debut figure.
Mattel Legends Mr. Perfect head, boots & towel.
Mattel Entrance Greats Million Dollar Man body.
Smaller knee pads.
Since the Elite version was WAY too tall this one is closer to proper scale. I guess he was billed at 6'3" which was bull crap. This figure is about the same height as Ricky Steamboat.
*See signature for pic(s)*

Here's my latest fixup, I picked up an RA Curt Hawkins from ebay for about $10 and used the ever so popular for customs Terry Funk body, with basic John Morrison arms to make it. I know this is not accurate, boot wise, and wrist tape wise, and he's a bit tall due to the size of the head, but it looks good to me and does the job for me until we get a Mattel Hawkins. Also I tried to put plain black kickpad boots on him from a basic figure, but there was a space between them and the leg, basic boots don't fit on elite figures I guess.

A fixup I did over the weekend, nothing spectacular, just a headswap on an Elite Triple H, Whilst browsing the pages here I've seen several CM Punk figures with his missing tattoos added with decals. Does anyone here sell them as a friend has just managed to get me an Elite series 11 Punk and I'd like to upgrade it.

I would also like to do the torso swap with Legends Bulldog but I'm going to wait until I've had a bit of practice with splitting Mattel torsos as I've not done any yet and I want the end product to be as "clean" as possible. Thanks also for the info regarding the decals
