I am looking to do a custom Chris Candido...
Anyone know any figures that are build but a little shorter than the others? I know Rey is 5' 6" and Candido is 5' 8" but I dont think a Rey body would do the trick.
Thanks for any suggestions.

The best torso would be Apollo Crews elite, or the generic Buff Torso from Triple H, Lex Luger, Batista etc. you’ll want to find shorter legs though. You can heat up the figures in super hot water and pop the leg off the ball joint, then switch the legs. I’ve done that to get tons of custom combos of wrestlers of various heights. Depending on how much you want to paint, I’d just get a legends Luger elite off Mercari, then find shorter muscular legs to do a leg swap.

Appreciate the information. I will head in that route and search for some shorter legs.

I have been trying to figure out which figures actually have shorter legs (thighs) but its hard to tell from pictures.
DO you know any good examples of smaller thighs that arent covered in pants (Like Rey) on some figures?
Maybe a Daniel Bryan would do the trick?

A Bobby Roode elite would work in my opinion. Swap out the legs if you're not sold on the height.

Those could possibly work, they’re just a little thin and they won’t convert to lace boots
