Just found this thread, and these are impressive customs. I like seeing different subjects than the same ones pretty much everyone else has done. That Wild Bull Curry is practically perfect. The likeness is amazing.

I've got to send out a big thanks to joes7164, he's traded me for a lot of good fodder that's gone into my customs. And I am glad you like the work, GoldenHulk. I enjoy trying to bring out some of the more obscure or forgotten faces of wrestling's past. My next figure's taking it even further back. This one's Maurice Tillet, the French Angel!

Incredible work as always mate, I’ve got a large amount of jakks fodder in a box, although I’m located in the UK, shoot me a message if you’re interested in a trade or something 👍

Seeing these almost makes me want to do customs again, I think your part choices are fantastic. You have really nailed the likeness of every single figure you have made!

Thank you Jables! I do love me some Jakks fodder, but shipping between the US and UK seems like you have to take out a second mortgage on your house! We're mailing action figures, not actual wrestlers, people! Thank you for the compliments as well Old Man Jones! I do spend a lot of time considering the right parts for the job. Dare I say, the concept stage is sometimes more fun than the actual work part! For my next work, this goes all the way back to my first custom post here on wfigs. My very first custom was a Jakks Shockmaster I converted into a Tugboat: Several years and many customs later, I began to rethink my first work. He was not just fat, he was DAYUM! on the Fluffy scale. Thanks Jakks. So, I've reimagined my first WWF custom that started it all:

My new year's resolution is to get back into customizing again. As such, I started the year with this new addition, the Revolting Blob from Billy Madison!

I hope the admins will forgive me for back to back posting in my own thread. I will edit if needed. I finally got my facelift for George where I wanted it. This is a Snitsky head that required quite a bit of reshaping to get to the likeness I wanted.

Today I finished work on a new Mighty Igor. I wanted to try a new head as a base, and made a new kielbasa for him, too.
