Probably not the right thread so sorry in advance,but I have a question about customising a figure using Basic 44? Kane (the one with elite articulation).are the legs/pelvis attached the same as normal basics or can they be pulled off the torso like the Build A Figures? I want to swap the legs on to an old basic undertaker and I just wanted to know how much work it's going to require Not 100% sure, but I think it's made like a regular figure so that it could stay on the basic torso. The build a figures have special torsos as well so the pieces can be clipped together. I thought that might be the case but I heard the reason he had the elite articulation was because they reused the Build A Figures legs so they didn't have to make a new mold for 1 figure but I don't fully believe that to be the case as Kane should be taller than all the Build A Figures and every basic release of that Kane after b44 has basic legs.I don't want to try pulling the legs off in case it's the normal type of connection

I saw this custom for sale on evilbay for the whopping price of $50, and I thought It was really cool, but way too much money. I'd like to make my own, so can somebody help me identify what head was used? I know it's an Elite 25 Ambrose body, so I'm just wondering what head was used so I can make one.

That's a David Hart Smith head from one of his figures

J&J Security was actually the first time I've seen suited pants not have Elite articulation.

That was actually a custom of mine that I wound up selling in the lot when I got rid of my collection. Ambrose will work, but I actually used TRU HBK with Ambrose legs. Had extras of them lying around. It is a Basic SMith head and arms though. THe issue you will have with AMbrose is the tones will not match.

It'll be hard to notice with the shirt on anyways.

And he has full pant legs instead of tucked into the boots.

Plus, I already have a spare E25 Ambrose, and I can just buy a head cheap. Also, RSC sells ref shirts so I can get one from there.

Honestly, it'd work if you'd just get a JOB squad shirt to hide the top.
