Yeah I know and I dont mind switching parts but I hate cutting up figures even the Heenan shortening leg mod as I like keeping the integrity of the pieces you know what I mean ? but I will have to do Fuji head for Yoko too . Did you like the reddish brown like herc had ? I think I'll dremel it and then sculpt and maybe even take beefcakes hair height down too for early Dream team .

It's all coming together for you. I would like that Roberts set, but not for the 60 it's going for. You have the right body n boots and accessories and base head for Herc, but you have to cut the hair off and give sculpting a try to make it 100% Hercules. Herc had longer hair when he first came to WWF, so it could work fine. What throws me off is the hair color is a little light, plus the big grin on his face seems a little un-Hercish. |

Yeah I went for his reddish brown look and I can remove it easy with Rubbing alcohol and I found these great paint pens by elmers just amazing ,but the smile  as I said I really like to keep the integrity of the pieces so I wont even put a H on his boots and I even gave Brutus back his crazy eyes . Now on the managers thats a straight cut mod so I dont think Im doing much to it other then making them the proper height . When seeing Bobby as tall as Studd then I'll take all the Managers and start cutting as its a pretty simple mod now that I know what Im doing ![]() |

Thanks CM I should have the Crowd wall graphic and The Snake pit in next week and then Im gonna contact Nathan at ringskirts for bunting above the crowd in a classic WWF color and I may also add some hanging banner for different themes as I have 4 WM ringskirts I got with deluxe beefcake , so lots of options . ? did you like the guardrail pathway to the ring ? everything else including the center pathway seemed crowded and no good path to the steps as they are pretty long |

As far as everything else I could have went huge and set it up in its own room but I think less is more in this case and I might even put in a real crowd and yellow jacket security behind the announcers but I wanna keep the focus on the important stuff and I found some cool add ons for the snake pit , vines and a campfire stone thing instead of the cheap cut out . When I get everything in I think I will do a assembly line of shortening the managers legs and I just gotta remember to countersink the pin hole |

I had a broken foot on one of my favs The Warrior , I mean it was just hanging and swinging so I took a tad of scotch tape folded it like a tube and pushed it up with a screw driver and wow a great fix for loose limbs .

I have that chain too, but it's too thin for my liking. I think it would be cool if you made one using the loose links available in the same isle.

I'm digging these pics! Great collection man!
p.s. You can shrink your managers/announcers down by using the legs that came with the Classic Fuji or Ruthless Aggression Tazz. I shrunk a Jim Ross, Paul Heyman, and a few others using those legs.

My first chain seemed too thick and though these are a tad off you still get a lot of bang for your buck IMO

Great to know ! thanks but classic Fuji is going for $28 if you can find um but I did see tazz , so your saying you can pop um at the knee pin and its shorter ? |

as I said I really like to keep the integrity of the pieces so I wont even put a H on his boots and I even gave Brutus back his crazy eyes . Now on the managers thats a straight cut mod so I dont think Im doing much to it other then making them the proper height .
