I can't take credit for the boots on Sam Houston, those came off of a Barry Windham fig.

I'm a little disappointed because I don't consider most of those guys to be jobbers. I guess they were to an extant, but not really as much as what I was thinking of. The look good either way though.

Here is my latest batch of customs, this time I decided to go with a babyface midcarder theme. Up first is a custom that I'm very excited about based on his LJN figure Mr. 702 himself: Ted Arcidi Next up is a man with hands of stone: "Rugged" Ronnie Garvin This man needs no introduction, and his custom is based on his LJN figure: "Haksaw" Jim Duggan All the way from Portland Oregon comes a man whose lost a few things in his life, and that trend continues in figure form, as his hat is missing and I have a sneaking suspicion that my daughter is the culprit. Based on his LJN figure: Here is another custom that I'm very excited about. It's based on his Hasbro figure: Virgil Here is a figure that I debuted last year, but I decided to give him a karate jacket that goes better with the attire I selected which us based in his LJN figure: Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat It's time for a group shot, included in this pic is another great midcarder that a fellow board member requested I place in a group shot, The Texas Tornado, I painted the WWE logo on the new Mattel IC Title, which I'm in love with. Thanks for looking, and be on the lookout for some midcard heels to go with this batch soon.

Virgil's head looks like the "OK" meme.

Virgil's head looks like the "OK" meme. That is the original size of the figures head. All I did to it was remove the hair by sanding it off, and painting it. I did not intentionally give him a cone head, I did not want to alter it any further, and it does not bother me.

The newest batch look real good, june! I'd love to see your whole collection sometime, customs included! Wars I wish I had room to display it. I gave away my massive expedit from ikea and the two smaller 3 tier display units. All together I had 30 shelves, and that was 2 years ago without customs.

The 1980s figures are simply amazing. Even the ones of "jobbers" are awesome in any collection. It would have been great to get some of them in the LJN line, though they may have been shelf warmers, they enhance a line as they enhanced the talent.

Here is a figure I finished a while ago, but never got around to posting. It's a repaint capturing Iron Sheik in his more Iconic attire from the Rock n Wrestling Era. Here is a Tag Team that was on pace to win the WWF Tag Titles, until Zenk left the company. The Can Am Connection. Here is the Blue Blazer in his WM5 attire. And here is a Dino Bravo figure I completed recently.

Garvin is one of the Spirit Squad guys. I remember you had sent me a msg requesting pics of Garvin, and Bravo. I totally forgot, but hope this makes up for it, as they are both here.

Yes, thanks for posting these....all of them look fantastic. Big fan of that Garvin especially. He is one that I really want to make for my collection. I was always a big fan of his and hate it that we never got a CS figure of him.
