The secret to Black's height is in his thighs I'd say. Swapping the calves does nothing unless you use parts that'll not really fit. Also, it's crazy to me that people seem to think Aleister Black is 6'3" or some crap. The guy is 5'11, 6'0 tops. Is everyone trying to go by billed or shoot height? WWE has Black listed at 5'11 and mine is on par with other figures that tall. If you're trying to go for a shoot height, then I don't know how you justify giving one guy his shoot height and not the rest. Just seems crazy the lengths people are going to to fix people's height by making them very tall. Adam Cole is barely out of scale to me, for instance. I agree on Cole. To me he’s fine. Dude is SMALL. As for Black, I think he needs just a minor bump in height. I added the E44 Sin Cara calves and they took him up just a bit

Him and Gargano are practically the same size and I put Johnny at around 5'10 irl. Ciampa I'd put at 5'11. WWE loves giving people an extra inch or two on paper. Has been happening since the 80s.

So, I spent the last month upgrading my Nikita Koloff to the red attire. I think it pops much more than the black singlet. First time actually painting and sealing and it wasn’t so bad. I got the Russian sickle decal from Curb Stomp City on IG. I like the intense eyes on this head but I’m thinking about doing a different head but not sure who has his likeness. What boots are those?

Not sure how I feel about how Brisco turned out. Used E66 Owens instead of Epic Moments that I used for Patterson. It was easier because of the ball joints but not liking the gap. It’ll do for now. I have an extra EM Owens but I hate popping off the ratchet legs.

Is there anyone to make using the Brisco body? Was thinking Backlund but don’t need one in alternate gear unless it was suspenders attire.

Sorry for the double post.
To those who have swapped Elite torsos onto the UE figures, is it hard? I'm really digging the new UE Nakamura but that torso is hideous. Also, would the UE neck peg work on the elite torso with no issues, to keep the interchangeable head aspect?

Granted, you'd need the head and that's not a cheap Jakks fig, but I think it looks great. Here's a custom stoptheclocks made a while ago: I had that in mind the second they showed Gerry's body under the soft goods. Head's a tad oversized, but I think it still works (Jack had a big noggin) and you know Mattel will never make him. Now I just need to luck out and get a cheap Jack Looks even better with that jacket from Ralph's:
