Legends Ricky Steamboat is perfect for Benoit. The base from the height to the ripped torso down to the red tights makes it your best bet. Your right it is.... a very good base for a Benoit Figure... hmmm the only trouble is doesn’t steamboats boots have a dragon logo painted on it?... would have been perfect if it was plain black boots. |

I made one just a few days ago: -DA 7 Benoit Head -E60 John Cena upper body -DM Surfer Sting Legs (repainted using Citadel paint - Mephisto Red & Abaddon Black) -E46 Rusev boots  That’s great dude... do you just soak the figure in hot water to pull the joints and figure apart and remove each piece after the plastic becomes soft? |

I used a hairdryer on all of these parts. Newer torsos tend not to have as much glue holding them together as older ones, so they're a lot easier to crack. With the boots, they're removable. The reason being is that I had to modify the pegs on both legs to get them to fit, but that was just a case of heating up the pegs and cutting them down to size with an Xacto Knife. |

They are easy to paint over since you just have to use black paint, or if you have an extra pair of elite boots, you can swap them out too |

Here's mine:  DA head E55 Neville torso E72 standard Buddy Murphy arms AJ Styles legs E16 Slater knees and calves This torso makes him shorter than the Austin torso, but it also makes the DA head look much bigger. I'm starting to think the Roode/Appollo torso could be best for him. |

so I was not happy with the height and there really is no short yellow calves I could use from any Sin Caras or Lucha House Party members, so I went the next route and added Bruno Sammartino boots. It requires some significant modding to the calf stem, but in the end it works great for dropping Benoit's height! I added Gene for comparison even though Gene is too tall himself.   |
