So I finally decided to pull the trigger on the Ultimate Goldberg but I'm not a fan of the thighs used, did anyone manage to find better looking ones?

That Berg looks superb. Just needs a nice gloss on the boots. Wish we got glossy boots more often. Not sure if it's a cost thing or if the finish will wear off easily or something else entirely.

I know two of my Kane's that had glossed became tacky over time. I'm assuming it's a cost issue. What I used to do was use glossy acrylic and it would work perfectly.

The ones you glossed got tacky or some from the factory (and which)? Mattel's got tacky. Specifically, my RSE unmasked Kane. It got so bad, it started to attract dust. My other Kane (can't remember the series) with the modern welder attire started to get tacky too. The ones I've painted have held up. I think every couple of years, they need a recoat. However, they look fantastic.

Does anyone know if the Paul Heyman body in basic 63 is the same as the Jim Ross BAF? Has anyone put his head on that figure/have pics?
I recently bought CM Punk so I'm looking for another way to avoid buying the rest of the figures to build JR.

Can anyone help with a good customizer that does good torso swaps with elite and ultimates, I am capable of doing a average-good job but really looking for someone who has mastered it to take this on, happy to pay, thanks!

Anyone have any good solutions to keep build-a-figure arms from falling off? I just got around to finishing Dok Hendrix and Rick Rude and the left arm for both refuse to stay in place. Only thing I can think of is put the entire figure in hot water and the arms should pop in as it should. I haven't tried this but I don't think that's a permanent fix. I've heard other people say Mattel got the peg the wrong way round (the peg going into the bicep should be the one that goes into the torso), but that doesn't look right to me. Anyone else got a more permanent fix for it?

Simple bron breakker custom I made until an elite is released. Hopefully they don't use the ryback, warrior, angle torso as I don't think it would really suit him

My fix-up Scott “Flash” Norton figure, using Mattel body parts but the FTC head and accessories.

I got a question. I want to upgrade my Alberto Del Rio to double jointed arms but I don’t know which arms to use. Anybody have any ideas?
