I have a question wish to ask before i start to do the custom work on my figures. Hope someone can help. If this question have been ask my other people, I apology for asking a repeated question. Recently i just got the WWE Jakks TTL style New Age Outlaw (both road dogg & BA billy gunn) from my friend who have give up his collection. So i was thinking of shifting the head of the new age outlaws to a RA style body as i have a RA style billy gunn in short hair. So my question is that does TTL head fix well onto RA style body? If they don't, what should i do to make the figure look presentable? Please help and thanks in advance to those kind souls who contribute.

Yeah, I use my Dremel to do so. I made some Outlaws a couple of years ago. The picture will kinda give you an idea of how the heads will fit after hollowing them out.

looks like an RA fig with baggy pants n a tshirt, maybe a Rico fig, but the thing is Road Dogg never wore shirts with sleeves, he always went sleeveless. You could use a Rey Misterio, look for one where hes got a sleeveless shirt on n repaint, acetone off his tats

Good call on the sleeves Ronin, but I absolutely suck at cracking RA torsos so I just left it as is instead of trying to switch out the arms and risk completely ruining the torso. Its weird I normally can crack a BCA or TTL torso fairly easy with little to no damage....but every RA I try to crack ends up horribly messed up, except for one Superheavyweight torso.

It was the karate Bischoff that warmed shelves for a while.

you can hollow it out which takes ages or as I do, cut the neck down on a jakks figure and glue the head on. looks better imo the hollowing is a very precise job.
