Brooklyn Brawler. I might ditch the shirt and paint one instead as it’s a bit too big.  There was a Brawler head and shirt on Ebay last month. Were you the guy that bought it? I was thinking about it. Awesome job, brother! |

Awesome job, brother! Thanks. No, I got a complete Brawler figure to use it’s parts for this! I’ve been buying up a fair few Jakks classics guys lately; not particularly cheap either - my mrs won’t be too happy if she finds out where I e been spending all my/our money! |

Here are my newest beginnings of customs (I say that as I seem to start a lot but never finish when it comes to painting them!). Action shot! Ready for his patented Side Suplex.  |

Not sure this one is going to work, but thought I’d put it together to see.  |

Hello all, Here are a few of my own fix ups Randy Orton with his viper hoodie A back view Kevin Owens with his KO Mania shirt Great idea! I'd say measure the length that you need and lightly mark the line with a pencil, then dip each vest in hot water for 20 seconds to soften then and use a small pair of scissors to shorten the length. That's money though! |

 Maybe somebody here may have and idea. I have a spare AJ styles body for a custom and figured who better than one of my all time favorites from the late nineties Gangrel. The problem I’ve run into is finding a good way to do his shirt. I’m not the greatest at sculpting and probably don’t have the right tools for it. And I figure trying to bastardize the torso to try and fit the Mattel retro legs wouldn’t work out well. If I can figure something out that would be a great addition to my collection |

Found an AJ Styles Elite 56 for 10 at Smyths in the sale section. Upgrading the Retros with Elites is such a fun. This is how I would envision a Retro line.  |

Hope you like them.
