Not sure if this belongs in this section, but as I’m fed up with this series currently, all I want left is TH2 figures. If I can get a custom TH2 to go along with Kenny I would be a happy boy for Christmas. Anyone got the skills to make the most elite tag team in all of professional wrestling today? I would need entrance jackets too.

Ask around the Mattel fix-up thread. There were a lot of AEW customs at various points. With how scarce the AEW figures are, most customizers couldn't get their hands on parts to make customs at this point.

I wonder who would make a good Angelico, and who would make a good Jack Evans. I will investigate.

You get what you pay for. How much are you willing to spend?

You get what you pay for. How much are you willing to spend? Up to 50$ a figure if it actually looks good and has the entrance jackets. Is it possible my friend? What’s the ballpark I need to be at in $$

What’s the ballpark I need to be at in $$ $150-350 each. Seriously. Top of the line customizers put so much effort into their work. Jackets take time to sew, 3D sculpts take time to draw and print and paint. Bodies take time to paint.
You can find cheaper, but again, you get what you pay for.

I mean, you spent $200 on a cody with a different shirt, that much for a well done Jack Evans or Angelico custom made seems pretty fair. Most good customs come out better than factory figures. I've seen far better customs of everyone in the first two unrivalled series compared to what was released.

I see a few in the jakks section looked cool. Wonder how a TH2 would turn out Also I got Cody cause I needed the whole series 1, as there is only 1 TH2

I rarely even post my work on here anymore and I've been here forever.

I will never understand why people think customs should be in the $50 range. A figure cost $20 brand new. Most customs require parts from various figures, multiple hours of a customizers time and talent to paint/sew/mold. Try to do the work yourself and you will see why you get what you pay for, if not keep saving or wait for a mass produced figure.

LOL "$50"
My brother was pulling more than that selling off custom Mini-Mates he made for himself back in the day. Doesn't even come close to what you'd be looking at for someone to take a commission order, especially when the base material isn't exactly plentiful to begin with.

It makes sense what your saying though. Your getting a 1 of 1. Maybe if I get another PS5 and sell it, I can afford a credible TH2 custom.

If you have the means to procure a second PS5, you probably have the means to commission a credible custom.
