Hey guys, decided to try my hand at figure customization. The first one wasn't too tough, just had to make some adjustments to the head, do a repaint, change out the boots and WHOOOOOOO...my Matty Slick Ric. Enjoy!!

This is actually a fine Ric Flair custom you have there, the paintjob on the tights was really nicely done along with the head scan that looks like it fits firmly with on him. He definitely seems a bit taller then usual, but I personally like it alot.

Thanks /X Metal Sorenges x "Mac Oh J~...that's quite the name. Appreciate the encouragement. Here are a couple more... I'm not a huge fan of the early Jakks TTL figures, but I wanted a Syxx for my WCW/nWo figs, so I made this guy with a TTL X-pac and a random (maybe r3) Keving Nash that was really sad looking. I do like how the smaller torso and arms make Syxx look different from the uber jakked Hogan, Hall, Nash and Steiner around him. Touched up the paint a little, considered making a Savage out of it, but he's a little too ugly for Mach so I kept him as Waltman (no offense Kid) The next isn't much of a custom, just a head swap, but one that I am a pretty big fan of. Jakks sells this really ghetto Hulkamania Ring that comes with a weird little Hogan and Sting figure. I have no idea what possessed them to use the bodies that they do since they are not in scale with ANY other figures they have ever made, but the head scans were pretty nice, so I swapped out the original head on this Hogan for the newer one, and really like how it looks now.

To be honest I don't know nearly enough about Jakks TTL figure in order to leave legitimate and accurate response in regards to your custom Waltman figure. Not really much to say about the Hulkamania figure besides the fact that I absolutely like Hogan's attire and the headswap was a really nice touch up, it looks much better from the head Jakks used from what I remember.

Syxxs tights could use a repaint, I rmember his tights being mostly black, with either green or red n gold piping, but thats just me
