I always thought that Benoit head was too big on Mattel's whenever I tried it but it looks perfect on yours. Both he and Shawn look fantastic. I'll need to so those now as well. Also is it possible to print those Benoit decals with the black being either in yellow or blue so I can finish this - I dont want to get into too many custom orders, but I can change the inside black part to red pretty easily. Ive had a few other requests for blue and purple also....I will try to offer those soon as well. Benoit looks so good with thicker legs, the steamboat legs make the figure look top heavy, but cara's legs balance out the austin torso That's what always bothered me about my previous Benoit fix up. I never was motivated to add logos on the tights because I didn't think it looked good until I tried the funk/ Sin Cara combo.... I'm pretty pleased with it...I wouldn't mind finding a better head scan that is a bit smaller, but I can live with this one.

have you tried this head? it uses the same body as the them jakks hulk hogans whose head you used to make your hogans with, so i presume its similar in size?

That head would need hollowing out. But there is a Jakks backlash figure (bca w/ real scan head) that would work like and RA head. I used it on my horseman attired Benoit.
And thanks Dean

Actually scratch what I said about the Backlash head. The figure you posted was an R3...I was thinking of the TTL head. But that is a series 1 R3 and they didn't have ball jointed heads yet so he'd still have to hollow it out. Here's the Backlash head on a Mattel And the R3 hollowed out -

Thanks PJ! I think I'm gonna pick one of those up. I think I like the R3 quite a bit. Seems like the skin-tone is very close to a bulldog/HHH color.

Busy day today. I've finally got some free time at work so I knocked some stuff out today I've been needing and wanting to do.Made decals for Bret Hart, Booker T, Daniel Bryan and Kane music stands. Here's the Hitmans ready to go. Heres my latest Chris Benoit, Used the red Sin Cara legs with some Funk tights, I never was a fan of the skinny Steamboat legs. Added Decals to complete the tights. E19 HBK Shawn Michaels is complete now with shiny silver vinyl decals for his once missing kneepads. Chest Hair decal was also added. I have both of those available for HBK if anyone is interested. I'm only making them for a short time and only offering them on here to my Wfig family. PM me if interested. Here's a group shot, CM Punk got a nice Head-swap and I think it fits the Macho Punk look better than the previous head-scan. Dig it! Dang they look so good!! Hey dean what upper torso did you use on your Benoit could you pm your recipe for him if possible??

Unless I've already missed one, do you plan on doing a Corporate Mankind with brown tights, Dean?
You're the guy to do it justice.

Hey Dean do you think those bret hart sunglasses decals could work for the RSC Bret or they can just be used for DM5 Bret?

If you look at the picture of mine on the entrance great stand I've used the pink reflective vinyl decal on the RSC exclusive pink glasses. I actually like them better on the pink frames...
