Anyone have the best recipe (and instructions for a noob) on how to make the Hall of Fame Hogan into an accurate post match Hogan with the black eye head? All I’ve ever done for fix ups is head swaps and the occasional boot swap so legs, arms, and torsos I’ve never done. I would just throw the black eye head on the HOF figure but the skin tone doesn’t match.
Suggestions?

I made one a while back. Just get a thin paint brush and some black acrylic paint and just carefully paint around the eye.

I would get a very, very little bit of purple paint and brush it very lightly around the eye. You could also kind of rub it with a paper towel to blend it into the skin tone so it doesn't look like he's wearing face paint.
You could even get a little bit of extremely watered down pink/red in that eye, so the eye looks bloodshot.

Never understood why the ultimate comes with multiple heads but only one has the black eye 🤷🏻♂️

Off topic, mine is now supposed to arrive on September 1st. Should I hold my breath?

Here’s how mines turned out. I also took some medical tape and cut a few thin strips to put over the eye.  |

Is there anyway to do it without painting? If I have to paint I know I will mess it up

If you're not going to swap the head, you're going to need to mark it up somehow. I don't know how you'd get around that.

Thoughts on using a Sharpie? I've never done any painting in my life but I've always wanted to do this as well

I’m looking more for ideas on how to get the HOF legs and boots on a super tan upper half. I’m ok if the upper half is 80’s Hogan jacked too. I just want all skin tones to match 😂 |

Best bet is to wait for the Coliseum Hogan with red trunks, dip both figs in near boiling hot water, and swap out the legs. Then pop the black eye head on. |

Yeah, torso crack if not painting. Personally, I suck at painting, but find torso cracks aren't difficult as long as you take your time so you may want to consider that instead.

No but he did wrestle in that gear in the tag with Brutus. Doubling up as a KOTR 1993 isn’t a bad shout, I hadn’t thought of that but the black eye is a unique look, they should have gone all in on it I thought, added the stitches. |

I know abut the tag, but then he should't have the Winged Eagle with him. I think they ere trying to balance it out by making it work as either Mania 9 or his overall Spring 93 title run (where I believe his only televised match or even appearance in gear with the title is KOTR 93.) |

I still hate that this won the poll. Having 2 WCW attires resulted in those votes being split and a moment that had no business being an ultimate winning.

Curious what you guys think about this I was talking to another friend about this same fixup. The idea is making the amazon u.e hogan into this attire. What trunks / legs do you guys feel would work best with the amazon upper torso? Its a wider body so it wouldnt look good on the smaller trunks the hof have. Think this would work? Hogan upper body u.e , kane lower. Hof boots? Makeshift pic in link below pasteboard.co/aXN8cQqkO7Yc.jpg |
