Great idea turning Duggan's 2x4 into a breakaway accessory.

Great idea turning Duggan's 2x4 into a breakaway accessory. Thanks June and I have many other authentic ideas on breakaway props for the classic era but I have a few questions for you ready ? Most tag team ropes of that era had a loop on it (see photos above )and a red and blue stripe too BUT I dont like the look so Ill scrap it though I will add a second tag team rope to my posts as I will have many 3 man tags . Im kinda disappointed you didnt catch when Volkoff sang that something happened so go back and look to see if your expert eye for detail can catch it ? More Match photos coming soon .... |

I second the opinion on the mic wire, very 80s esque. Love the arena as a whole, very "busy" and stimulating to the eyes. Can't wait for the remainder of the match, I want to see someone get humbled!

Man my last set had some blurred Sheik hitting Jumpin Jim with Blassie's cane photos so I might do a redo and Yep Volkoff got hit in the head ! good eye and Im also gonna have the mic come down from above like WM2 in Hogan/Bundy match and thanks for your kind comments . More photos up in a bit but I have to finish a Heenan and Bundy mod first ! |

Dugan is an animal ... Hitting Iron Sheik for no reason. I see that Sheiky Baby gets his revenge though! I want to see the rest of the match!

Might be a camel clutch coming soon but Didnt you see the Gene Mean promo on page 27 where he warned Volkoff what Hacksaw Jim Duggan would do if he sang the Russian National Anthem ? Maybe you can find a replay on WWF.com  More of the match coming tonight as all these mods are taking time ! |

Honestly I am not a fan of Jakks Bundy figures. He is too fat. Looks more like the blob than King Kong Bundy. But of the two the released I like the 3-Pack one more. Yours makes him look better, but he's still to fat.

The Bundy figure is frustrating to me. Really the best representation of Bundy was the Legends of Professional Wrestling figure of him from years back.

Ill post more Match photos in a bit as I been watching some old Bees matches but on leg mod with no taz leg mod I remove foot , grind down leg past ankle pin hole , re drill new hole for foot and redrill a pilot hole for ankle and foot and insert a wooden dowel and paint each end of peg. I did it on over 20 figures Referees included . |

I did it on over 20 figures Referees included . Wow what a great idea! I have never modded figures, Jakks or Mattels and have no idea how to take them apart. Next time you do a leg adjustment, how should take pictures of the steps involved. You're the man! |

Let me know when you wanna do it and Ill PM you everything step by step and if you dont have a grinding wheel you can always heat and cut or saw them off but you gotta be more accurate that way . Oh and I dremel the new ankle hole out with a cone shaped bit and finally have the process down to around 10 minutes per figure . |

Yours makes him look better, but he's still to fat. I Totally understand and agree on scale and legs but something about that Bundy figure just fits in nicely with my Heenan Mod and the giant John Studd ! Oh PJ when did Jakks start mailing in figures( got lazy) ? I mean like they did Bulldogs with no socks and then later added then to new series ? did they ever even listen to customers on flaws as I know scale was never gonna be a issue for them as it wasnt a priority . |
