Has anyone swapped torsos on any Ultimate Editions to regular Elite torsos?

Will EG Goldberg head on Main Event Ring Oldberg work for 1st WWE run Goldberg? I remember a half and half biker shorts. Can’t recall if he wore black with white trim and logo on back. Barely was watching then.

Fighter Hayabusa yes, it would. He wore the same biker shorts during that period with the white trim. The eg greats head doesn’t work for the WCW era imo though, looks too old and nothing like Goldberg from side views.

Did a BMF custom vest since I know Mattel ill never do it, figure itself is also a fixup. Windham body with a scan that I think was only used once on a basic. He had a more slender toned look in 96-97 and I think this torso best represents that.

That Austin looks great. I forgot about that basic signature series head. I have mine on a custom elite as well.

That Austin head looks like painted a goatee on a baby. It’s weird and squished compared to the other 2. I really want to see that series 100 sculpt painted.

Stone Cold- Gave him thicker legs, will swap head when I get the chance to Untitled by matt grey, on Flickr Undertaker-WIP- Legends hair, DM hand swap, Warlord boot swap. I have an issue where the left boot does not want to fit in the peg. Any suggestions?? Untitled by matt grey, on Flickr Untitled by matt grey, on Flickr Goldberg- Swapped his elbow pads and kneepads the ones that I felt were his iconic look. Also, added some paint to the goatee and glossed his boots. Mattel needs to give us an actual younger Goldberg facescan Untitled by matt grey, on Flickr Sting- I constantly complain about Mattel's Stings not being accurate or even consistent. Sting is my favorite wrestler of ALL TIME and I still to this day feel like we've not gotten a perfect Sting. Mattel has a good selection of parts, but for whatever reason they're not used. My fixup uses Hawk's arms since Sting had big arms, but they were not chiseled during the late 90's, wrist cuffs, repainted hair, swapped boots, flesh painted on the sides of the face and a more accurate bat. Untitled by matt grey, on Flickr Untitled by matt grey, on Flickr I'm really hoping Mattel gives us a proper '98 Sting. This shows the inconsistency for the torsos and imo neither work for Sting or the pair of legs they suited them with. The Hall of Champions Eddie torso is wider and would work wonders. The boots are another issue, Mattel molded them shorter than what they were... Untitled by matt grey, on Flickr Untitled by matt grey, on Flickr

SteveHulk thanks brother. I’m hoping mattel has some crow Stings for this year’s SDCC or at least in the near future with the Eddie torso.

My Austin I wanted him bigger, but didn’t want to crack the torso and trunks to give him the thicker thighs so I just gave him Ziggler arms and am happy with it. Crow Sting I did two different versions one with the DM Steamboat/Ziggler arms - And the other with Triple H shoulders and arms - Personally I like the DM Steamboat/Ziggler better because it makes him bigger yet still smaller than Lex. Wolfpac Sting I too gave him the boPPV Hitman/e30 Hawk arms - And the Starrcade ‘97 I had given him the L1 LOD boots -

What's an easy, no paint, Jon Moxley Fix-up? DM Jericho + Austin legs and boots - tight designs & TX tattoo? Do the legs fit well on the DM Jericho? Like they fit right on? And should it be a normal in trunks Austin Elite or Epic Moments in shorts Austin?

No torso cracking necessary: Yes, I have done that before but I did this Austin prior to trying that method. And no longer had spare thicker thighs in that skin tone.
