Cyber Sunday 2006 Piper. I need to convert that Flair to an elite. Love stuff like this. You don't see it often. Creative use of the Patterson parts.

Much more simple, just swap with the BAF heyman legs. Same color, just different color shoes and you can swap those Vince Torso isnt a BAF torso though. You can just swap the heyman legs below the thigh.. heat it up and pop them off.

I picked this up today and was none to pleased with the new torso style so… I have not been on the boards enough so I am not 100% sure if anyone has done this yet. The legs and arms are compatible. The torso was not hard to crack either.

The torso was not hard to crack either. I did this with mine also and was very happy with the result. Much better than the overlap in the chest.

Labeled101 dude that looks ing beautiful!!! Looks way better than the triple h torso. Do you have any tricks to cutting a seamless torso? They’re an absolute pain.

Labeled101 your Warrior is a major upgrade! That UE torso is such a bad eye sore and it’s a shame because that warrior is pretty cool. Great job man.

Labeled101 awesome job my friend! For Warrior i’m always debated between this Tatanka torso or the Vince McMahon one.

Black trunks Duggan fix up using Pat Patterson torso and trunks. Boots, legs, arms, 2x4, and shirt are from RF Duggan. Preferred the Legends head for this era. Can’t recall knee pads (Bo maybe). Legs have the ratchet joints so had to swap at the thigh. Not an exact fit but I can live with it. Brilliant really nice do you think Mattel will ever do this figure or is it worth doing one myself

Anyone fixed up elite 13 edge with the boots he wore in the WrestleMania 2 pack with Jeff to give him his 02/03 look?

What’s the best way to fix loose ankles on the 2010-2012 elites? Specifically Cena and Triple H

The newer torsos use less adhesive/glue so they are easier to deal with. The older torsos are unfortunately more difficult and stubborn. The hardest torso hands down that I have come across for whatever reason has to be Elite 27 Road Dogg. The thought alone is making break out in stress hives.

If I have an elite that was released without interchangeable hands (let's just say an earlier series elite), can I do hand swaps, or are the sockets and pegs shaped differently?
I'm fairly sure I know this answer as I just ranked on Rhyno's hand and it's now loose as a goose, but thought I'd get input from the experts.

Sorry if this isn't the right place to ask stuff like this, but is there any kind of guide to wrestlers by skintone, and how to tell which figure hands will fit in wrist holes? I'm going to a flea market on Saturday with at least one vendor who sells lots of custom fodder type figures for super cheap, and I'm hoping to do a few part swaps to touch up some of my favorite-but-imperfect figures.
Any help would be SUPER appreciated!!!

Does anyone know if the TNA Toybiz Alex Shelley head needs any modification to fit on a Mattel body?
The AJ Styles that came with a Samoa Joe back in the day did not need that type of work and I was hoping the Shelley would be the same.
