Hey gang,
I’m thinking of making an ultimate style Hulk Still Ruies custom, and I have a couple of questions.
1. First, what do you guys think is the best recipe to use for this figure? Should I use the upcoming lower half from the Hulk Still Rules triple pack? How about the lower half of the Elite 91 Hogan? And, which shirt seems best?
2. Does anyone have an appropriate Undisputed Heavyweight Championship belt for sake or trade?
3. If I can’t find a Mattel belt, will Jakks belts work? How’s the Jakks compared to the Mattel?
4. Finally, I have a couple variant Chase Mr. Americas on card for sake or trade. Message me if interested.
Thanks all!

I would go for the new Hulk Hogan three pack lower, Amazon Hogan UE top with a repainted beard. Then use the Undisputed belt from either Eddie Guerrero or Brock Lesnar. You can also add a Austin knee brace. Thinking about it, I still don't think we have the definitive Hogan head from that era. The Jakks weightbelt would be the icing on the cake.

Sounds like a good recipe. Unfortunately, we don't have the definitive shirt from this era either (red with bold/yellow Hulkamania). If you can hold off a while, I'm pretty certain we'll get a HSR Ultimate Edition sooner or later...

Hopefully so, sweet hotdog tan, three new heads and I don't care what else and I'll be a happy camper.

Make that three heads and we got a tag team match with The Undertaker playa. I still want a UE Hollywood Hogan with terminator styled boots. I think they could be done if the skull is slightly altered. Half of the time Mattel gets things done wrong either way lol.

Those belts are way too big, Hogan held the original small Undisputed belt

Thanks for all the replies. Too sweet. I may hold off. I’ll see what I think when the three pack comes out. Customizing is fun, but at this point I’d prefer to just get an official Ultimate edition Hulk Still Rules Champion figure done right. Otherwise, it’s having to spend a lot of money to buy a figure for a championship belt, buying another figure for a knee brace and sunglasses, buying a Fan Takeover for the torso and head, having someone paint the beard on the head, potentially slicing my fingers while cracking the torsos… And I didn’t even know about that Jakks weight belt, so that would be maybe yet another search and more money. That’s a bit too much effort and money for me at this point.

I think it's better to wait for a UE version of this Hulk at this point. Although, the idea is cool.

I think I made it certain that we are getting an Ultimate Hulk Still Rules figure. I finally caved and bought an elite 91 Hogan figure, as well as a first version (smaller) shiny Undisputed Championship belt. I’ll be making two versions. One’ll have the 40th Anniversary lower half and accessories, and the other the stuff from Elite 91. I plan to use the upcoming “fell asleep in the tanning bed” Hollywood Hogan Ultimate release for the torsos. I was originally planning to just make one, but those red Elite boots with the smiling Hogan are too hilariously irresistible. Any tips or suggestions are most welcome! So, odds are I set the wheel of destiny in motion by caving and buying this stuff, and we’ll be seeing an Ultimate HSR either at Mania or SDCC.

Big Evil came with the smaller VAC Undisputed belt Came to say this I caved and picked up a shiny 1st edition (small) Undisputed belt and made my 40th Anniversary 2002 HSR into an Undisputed Champion, along with making an Ultimate version of 2005 HSR.

Thanks for that! I didn’t even notice, since that’s how it came in the package.
