Has anyone tried a jacket on NOD Faarooq? I can't even remember who Mattel has released with one. EG Piper?

Posted over in the Custom thread but this gets more traffic. What's the best solution for an Elite Taz? I can apoxie his singlet but would rather use someone with a singlet. Both Pete Dunne and Shorty G are too thin. I was thinking Papa Shango or Retrofest Duggan for the torso. Too long?
The arms, legs, etc. can be fixed as can paintwork. Just trying to find the right torso.

Is there a good way to remove hands from Elites before they came with removable hands? I want to add the hands from Elite 56 AJ Styles to the Elite 2-Pack Styles. Is hot water a good method because I don't own a hairdryer.

I think it works well.

All of the women fit perfect and the really small arms on people like Styles and Bryan fit well too but beyond those not many work

Has anyone put the Elite 66 Kevin Owens arms on any of his older elites?
If so, do the shoulders stand out on them?
I was thinking of picking up an older Kevin Owens elite.

marino13I love seeing your fix ups. Something so small makes some figures look great. I would love to see some collection pics!

Quick story.
Last night when posing my new UE HBK, his left leg snapped off. The ball snapped off and was stuck inside the leg joint.
I had to crack the crotch piece, replace the ball joints and replace the connector bit on the leg with the ball still stuck inside.
First time having a ball joint break. And on a figure so new to boot. Also noticed the paint apps on the chaps are wrong. One is on the side of he chaps and the other is basically in the front. Really wish you could inspect figures from RSC. I can't complain either because last time I did about a factory error they were quite short and curt with me and only reluctantly offered an explicit "one time" fix after some correspondence. Bad QA from Mattel has slowly been starting to effect my collection. I doubt I'll be back ordering from them again anytime soon.

Picked up a UE bret and he’s got paint app issues on his trucks and down his legs. Most UE warriors have paint app issues on the front of the trunks. They gotta tighten up UE figures if they’re gonna charge $30 at retail. Not impressed by the line so far
