Jakks and Mattel use the same company for scanning - Gentle Giant Studios and also use many of the same sculptors. Jakks may have given some better paint applications, but the scans are all about the same quality. They use the same company, but looks like the started to suck at their jobs, mattel has some horrendous scans, and their paint apps for them Blow too, and the hair is abysmal.

St. Patrick what kind of display case do you use is it the Deltof? Right now I'm using basic book shelves, was using the Kingsbo from IKEA but it does not have enough height.

Yeah, you might have to crack a torso for angle though, his legends of the ring fig would be a good choice with a wonderful torso.

The Imternet exclusive Bash at the beach hogan would be a good choice since he has red tights, just pop a different head on him a shirt and you're set for a paint free fix

Good idea on the guitar, but you're gonna have to do a hogan in red spandex pants to go with it.

The buckwheat is an iconic look though. I have an idea for Jesse, hope to get working on him soon.

It's really thin, which makes it in scale with all the other Mattels which is what makes it great, never mind that cactus was a 300 plus pounder, thinner is better.

That looks awesome! Custom made? Thanks dude, it's a new NBA Heroes playset, pretty cool looking, wish it was not cardboard.

Barry and Big Daddy Cool were too short, IRS was too thin, Steiner too fat, Hogan could've been taller, so the two best figures to me are 123 Kid and Shamrock, but the lack of a colorful outfit for Kidd gives Shamrock the edge here.

Excellent work guys, and just like Wars I'm getting the itch to start working on figs myself.

I would go with the regular suited body rather than the tazz legs on a ref, I prefer those for managers.

Love all the Andre's. Like the suit, and while it's an improvement, I think a belt would really healp the overall look, still kinda baggy though.
