i am very impressed by the work, i could NEVER do it myself in a million years but i persoanlly dont dig the "tan" painted skin. i undertsand it s realistic and it is so well done but i feel if you are going to do it like that you have to do EVERYONE that way. so many guys on the roster now are orange/brown...rhodes,orton,miz,jericho. anyway bottom line=looks great buy where does it end IMO...juice heenan looks awesome, cant believe you got that huge head to look normal on a mattel bodyThanks. I thought it looked pretty good too. I wasn't planning on using the blue shoes/boots, but I kinda dig it. I think the head looks ok because Heenan had a somewhat fat face in real life.. so it works. This figure is cool to me cause it's the same attire as the Bobby The Brain LJN figure.  |

Two of my favorite midcarders that should have gotten pushed more. The accesories I gave them kind of show how I thought their careers should have been at least.. Chris Masters and Carlito!   I know the cape isn't the most accurate but it works for me. love this fix up & I 100% agree on you, they should've gotten a push, specially Carlito He screwed up though or WWE did. Idk either way He is still one of my favorite Wrestlers. As for Chris Masters..He is American Adonis now at Ring Ka King (Impact Wrestling's Indy Promotion) he is a great heel there, he is doing his Masterlock AdonisLock Challenge there. may I ask the recipe for both of these fix-ups? |

Thanks Matness! Masters is a Paul Orndorf body (acetoned the logos on the back) with a Survivor Series Heritage Masters head, arms, and from his knees down is Masters too, and a Vader cape. Carlito is an elite Dibiase with a Carlito head, MVP upper legs, and Orndorf boots and kneepads. Thanks again

Carlito is an elite Dibiase with a Carlito head, MVP upper legs, and Orndorf boots and kneepads. Thanks again wow that's some pretty complicated part switches  i only know the basics swaps. If i only i have those parts I would try to do the same :/ thanks for sharing bro. keep it up. Looking forward for more fix ups from you. Awesome Rhodes fix up as well  |

Hey Yo....     ...one more for the good guys. I am very pleased with the result. Took a long time to gather the parts and get it all painted/put together. I would consider selling for the right price, although I think Ebay would probably be the way to go with it. |

Great stuff as always FamousJ I always Love your work.
Goldust: That Scot Hall looks Epic! The paint work looks great
Ignatius: Carlito and Masters look awesome though I think Carlito's Second scan would have looked beter.

That Steiner is just ridiculous! I like Heenan as well. The lighting on his face makes him look angelic haha.  McMahon's jacket can come off. If anyone was wondering. They painted the suit colour on the torso shoulder areas? Nice job mattel, small details like that make the final product so much better. |

I know the cape isn't the most accurate but it works for me. Whats the formula for Carlito? Im considering doing that! |

Thanks for the feedback guys! Once again Carlito is an elite Dibiase with a Carlito head, MVP upper legs, and Orndorf boots and kneepads. And NickJ I agree with you on the Carlito scan, I will try and get a hold of that one. And Goldust, that is my favorite Scott Hall yet!

you can get fingers to pose like that also with hot water, then when they are flexible , insert a small pin to keep them the way you want them  |

Does anyone have or have seen any custom Tazz mattels? I recently found one of my old Tazz figures from the Jakks TTL era, and I heard that TTL heads are usually a perfect fit on mattel figures as they are scaled nicely. I might want to attempt to make one of him.
Also I have a Jakks TTL era Rikishi and he looks GREAT with mattels, scale looks good too. But if I wanted to go and make him into a mattel figure, which parts would be best for use?
