Hey all! I am not a huge fan of AEW so I don't collect the line. I do have Shida and noticed her head and body are huge compared to my mattel collection.
I am a big fan of Kip Sabian and Penelope Ford and would like to do Mattel style customs of them using the AEW heads since they have decent likeness. Will their heads fit in the mattel line or are they oversized like Shida?

I just ordered Hikaru Shida figure off RSC. How is she huge compared to Mattel WWE figures?

I do believe Jazwares scale is a smidge bigger than your Elite and basics. Not a perfect 1:1 match.
I'll say the Penelope is a bit more egregious. It is taller than Mattel's Doudrop and dwarfs Becky Lynch and Rhea Ripley, even other Jazzys like Thunder Rosa.

It would probably be slightly bigger than ideal but not overly so, and is still your best bet if you want to make a custom Mattel figure of her

Unfortunately, I can't help you with that. I was unable to buy them. I never saw them at retail & I waited too long to buy them online. Now they are expensive in the aftermarket. Heartbreak & disappointment.

the penelope figure is way too oversized. im not sure i think someone had their finger on the scale button during her design. penelope ford is listed at being 5'4" and Anna Jay is listed at 5'8" and penelope's figure towers over.

I would say, in general, you aren't going to be able to use AEW heads on WWE bodies. AEW figures, at least 8/10 times, are noticeably out of scale with WWE figures. Some of them can work though, however due to the completely bonkers skintones that AEW Jazwares uses, good luck making any AEW head you put on a Mattel body look good.
