So is that the whole reason why most Jeff figures still get the same tanktop torso? E1 was so long ago the tooling is outdated and they haven't updated it.

Not really, i had to modify the inside peg a little bit to let the "normal" small torso onto the Jeff's legs. Here's a pic of comparison between Jeff's legs and Shield's legs, for example: As you can see there's a difference, therefore that's what i had to do to make the torso fit: Result: I was more meaning about the elite 57 Jeff as it has a different crotch piece.

The skinny torso that Tarver used was in the same series as the cancelled E1 Hardy figure. I think it's the spreadsheet running wild.

I think that Austin torso may be the clear best torso for Sting. Sting was always big and jacked but I don't recall him ever being ripped like the one they give him. In an ironic twist, I never liked the torso for Austin. Mattel IMO has yet to give us the perfect Sting, each one has something wrong part wise. When you line them up besides each other, there’s no consistency at all. The surfer imo needs the Austin torso and thicker Dolph legs to compliment the torso.

Also, has anyone swapped the Elite 71 Jeff Hardy 09 head onto his Entrance Greats? I thought about that too. I think it would be a nice fix up.

So.. I tried to fix my Ricochet loose head, and instead I ruined it more with stains and the super-glue. How can I clean it? tried hot water and it does not help. apparent to be that I'm not good at fix-ups Thanks! I have used hot glue to tighten up the neck peg on a few figures .It worked and i didnt have to worry about glue over run.

I'm not really sure that the upper part could match with the Jeff lower torso.

Has anyone tried putting the Storm Collectibles Hogan head onto his Defining Moments body? Do the skintones match/does the head fit?

I finally had the time to finished my Ciampa fix. I had corrected his height the day I received my preorder from RSC with a pair of HOF Flair thighs, but I had wanted to give him the ripped cruiserweight arms (original Orton arms) well, I finally had the time yesterday to remove the grey paint from an extra “U can’t C Knee” T-shirt Rollins figure and pop them on Ciampa.
