I don’t know why there hasn’t been any Hercules Hernandez figures since LJN - well, not that I know of at least. He passed away quite a while ago & I’m not aware of any bad feeling between him & WWE.
So I’m thinking a retro style Hercules custom is in order; but I’m wondering what head people think would work best?

Elias? Luke Harper? Dr Death Steve Williams? Steve Blackman?

Elias? Luke Harper? Dr Death Steve Williams? Steve Blackman? Cheers for the reply - some good suggestions. I’d even been wondering whether Seth Rollins with a hair swap would work. I read somewhere else that someone recommended a Charlie Haas; and after looking at it I think I’m gonna go with that!

I'm kind of wondering how a modified Rusev might look.

Yeah I was surprised how good the Haas head looked. I’ve got a Haas on the way now off eBay , so should have a custom put together by the weekend. And then I’ll get some pics posted!
I’d definitely be interested to see other people’s versions - like using Elias and Rusev.

Ive had that pic saved on my computer probably for a year now wanting to recreate that but I dont have those skills.

It's not too hard. Wow...that’s great work. Which head is that? Is that Eugene hair on the gladiator version? Thanks. Its the firs Elite Rusev head on both. The Gladiator version uses Hillbilly Jim hair.

So here is my Hercules. Just need to paint the tape & boots white. I’d always imagined a Herc hasbro to have the press slam; but I feel this action works well. It does a Herc staple, clothesline. It can do his part of the Power & Glory finisher, superplex. And finally, the torturerack back breaker! The clothesline movement actually works pretty well simulating this move.

classicdas, your Hercules' are amazing! I wish that WWF had kept the brown leather outfit. It amazes me that the company would have such great work put into an outfit only for it to be dropped a few months into the run.
