 Upgraded my Wolfpac Hogan. Gave him a UE Hollywood Hogan torso and head, swapped the Kneepads, and gave him taped fists. Was there pattern/design underneath the kneepads, or was it just black? |

I'm curious, has anyone tried heating up the Ultimate Edition torsos and popping them apart in the middle like you would other ball joints?

However, UE Flair doesn’t (not sure which others are like Flair). With Flair, a peg from the top portion of the torso goes through a latch on the bottom half so you can’t simply boil and pop it. |

Interesting. I wonder they went against the traditional diaphragm joint design of a ball joint |

Curious about this myself. would love to buy extra 14 jeff hardy to swap the torso with his amazon. Still think his Amazon torso was the worst decision, part wise, I've seen mattel make |

Bought a few spare E92 Ric Flairs (found cheap at Ollie's) for the Horsemen shirts.... decided to play around with a few spare parts I had... since there are no new Ric Flair figures on the horizon, I need my fix..... Must say, I'm amazed at how many Flair robes we DIDN'T get.... purple, yellow, green..... his late-career black/blue..... I'm sure the robes are a PAIN to manufacture, but I sure would have liked a few more..... Going for that early-1994 Ric Flair here....  |

I checked and the knees have the pattern on them but the lower legs do not. It stops at the lower knee cap. |

Anyone know of a figure with the muscular arms and black wrist tape whose skintone matches Legends 15 Luger?

Also, Ralphs figure clothing still sells a lot of ric flair robes with different colors. The quality is good. The price though is 17.99 each. Just a thought if you wanted to get more. His black/blue one is there and looks really good in the pics |

Quick question... are the arms on the Ultimate Edition 80's Hogan, the Survivor Series Hogan and the E96 Hogan all the same (in style and colour)?
Thanks.

Im not surprised it doesn’t work on Amazon Hogan as he came out after the change was made. With UE Hollywood Hogan, let him sit in hot water for about 3-4 minutes then the torso should pop off with little resistance. |

If so, I wonder if it'll work on the rerelease |

Anyone have the best recipe (and instructions for a noob) on how to make the Hall of Fame Hogan into an accurate post match Hogan with the black eye head? All I’ve ever done for fix ups is head swaps and the occasional boot swap so legs, arms, and torsos I’ve never done. I would just throw the black eye head on the HOF figure but the skin tone doesn’t match.
Suggestions?
