Hi all, have been plotting out a Zack Sabre Jr. elite custom, but his body type is just so non-traditional. Tall, but lanky and thin. Was thinking of using an Elite Ellsworth's arms... but his dadbod torso and thick thighs would look kind of funny. Does anybody have any suggestion for legs/body or a better suggestion for arms for a ZSJ? Thanks.

Maybe you could try DC Universe Classics figures like Mercury or Creeper, they have long lanky arms and legs.

Oh thanks for the tip! Hadn't considered looking outside of Mattel elites...

therick I’m using the Elite Bo Dallas body with Bryan shins and boots. I think it looks great for his physique. Here’s a pic:

Chargrove, that’s a great idea, and those look awesome. I had initially intended to use a Bo Dallas simply for his white trunks, but he seemed way too tall. Bryan’s kickpads would totally work. Which headsculpt are you using? The closest I’ve found has been a basic Cody.

I’ve seen a Sabre custom using the Elite Ellsworth body and it just didn’t look right, man.
