At Survivor Series 1992, The Ultimate Warrior and Randy Savage were scheduled to take on Ric Flair and Razor Ramon. Shortly before, the Warrior left for controversial reasons and Mr. Perfect took his place. A member from another forum won a drawing in 1994 for the kneepads and singlet the Warrior was supposed to have worn in that match. I just gave it my best shot for the makeup scheme. I plan to replace the orange boot fringe with yellow, but I live in the boonies and it's going to be a few days. Rate/bash/ignore as you please. Reference pics from a promo for Survivor Series 1992      **Update** I added black and red tassels to the arms, and red/yellow/black fringe to the boats, and yellow fringe to the forearms for a more complete look.  |

Very nice man. Judging from the picture you probably should have used his other head where his hair is more wild..but this is nice. The decals or printouts look very nicely applied.
I wonder why he left.

I would have liked to see the more wild hair scan, but otherwise looks great. I remember when this happened and he left... it was kind of weird at the time.

Ha, I've been wanting to make this exact same obscure custom, and it would have turned out the same way, because I was planning on using decals based on those singlet/kneepad pictures.
Yours turned out so well that I can see it's definitely worth doing. That Warrior head sculpt works well for the era, but I just wish his hair wasn't so flat.

I wonder why he left. He and Vince were at odds over the control of his likeness/name after his 2nd run. This is probably what led to his legal name change in '03. |

Excellent paint work,I happen to think you used the right figure for the era-I happen to be a fan of this head sculpt-Someone should make a renegade figure with the same body.

I kind of liked the orange fringe over the yellow.

excellent job on the warrior. Are those logos printouts, transfers, or painted? Love the kneepads.
