For anyone who has made a custom Hogan using a JAKKS head, is there any modding required? I have zero skill in that area but if it's good to go as a boil and pop, I've got a line on a cheap head in good condition. Thanks in advance, especially if anyone can provide pictures! Depends on the head. I’d say the majority of Jakks Hogan heads are perfect for Mattel as they are, but there’s a couple that are huge.

Does anyone know if the WM32 Elite Undertaker has the exact same shoes as elite29 or elite48 Rowan?

Has anyone tried putting the old basic Hurricane head on the new Elite body? Wondering if it needs any modding. It is damned near perfect .Def recommend doing it.Make sure you heat the heads well before swapping.

Does Elite 72 Batista actually not have ball joints at the hips but rather ratchet joints instead?
Edit: Just picked it up at Walmart and yep, it's Mattel's usual garbage ratchet joint set up. These things are ALWAYS a floppy mess that leaves the figure either leaning to the right or barely able to stand, which defeats the entire point of it being a ratchet joint. At least a ball joint I can fix by popping the legs off and wrapping tape around the ball peg. If you're going to do a ratchet joint, ffs at least learn how to do it properly. /Rant
Anyone know how to fix these things?

HOLLYWOOD HULK HOGAN Thanks for sharing! Are the skin tones closer to matching in person (just looking off because of camera flash or w/e) or is this pretty much how they look to the naked eye?

They do match a bit better in person, but I'm not too worried about it - this is only a placeholder until Mattel can do one!

Now all you need is a Terri Runnels figure and you can recreate some WCW match-ups ;'

OK my ability of a fixup is head-swaps, so w/that said, the Jakks RA Scott Steiner, in red, what figure could I put that on to have a Mattel Big Poppa Pump. Matching skin tone, gear, and his juiced up build? Will that Vince figure that came with the sweatshirt and Attitude Era World title work? I saw a Jack Swagger basic that would fit the bill great, but idk if it's a skintone match...will that work, and if not, what do you think would? Also I'm up for attires other than a singlet too. If only his and Big E's skin tones matched. Here's the one I was talking about

I would personally use either a Rusev, or the TRU 2002 Cena figure in red. The tone is going to be off either way.

I know the attire isn't right, but the trunks are white and the torso is ripped to shreds, and when I put them side by side for a couple seconds it didn't look that bad. I post a pic when I do it. Thanks for the reply!
