looks good! only thing i'd suggest is cleaning up whatever's happening at the hairline.

Thanks for the comments so far guys Do you happen to have the robe the Jakks Dr Death came with? Nah I don't have the robe or the figure - I am curious to know if the jakks head scan is in scale with this body though. But Not sure if it was one of their better head scans.

The Jakks head would look too large even on Brock

Dr Death looks excellent, and though late to the party, so do the Smackdown Six. It's really neat to see your group from that era. Almost makes me want an all red Spiderman-like Rey.
Also, I found a Havoc Unleashed 1 Angle and the head looks a bit different than the one on yours. Did you have to do any work to it to make it fit?

Bandy I have the jakks head and its huge, far too big even for the lesnar body.

okay so I still wasn't completely satisfied with this fix-up. I hear you guys loud and clear about the beefy Lesnar torso - it's very cut but it's the widest and probably most appropriate torso available for Dr. Death's unique physique. So I thought maybe I could reduce the biceps and maybe it will give a better "illusion". Turns out it beefed up my Road Warrior Hawk who really needed bigger guns: I also did some cleaning up here and there, I saw there was acetone residue still on the chest, and GDM pointed out that I should clean up the hairline a bit more. So here's Dr. Death v 1.1 BEFORE: AFTER: What do you think?

Thanks dude and no, no work on the Angle head - he was in series 2 as well and it's a slightly different head - was the body in a light blue singlet/red boots?

Nope, it was dark blue shorts/tights with red boots. It was the old TTL series body. Could Jakks have made 2 different Havok Unleashed Angles? From the pics I've seen of series 2 they looked like the BCA style.

Bandy, the pictures you posted of Doc next to others sold me on the torso. I thought others would like way undersized but I was wrong. I like it. The updates are nice, but I'm on the fence again. I think you could go either way on the biceps. While the smaller ones put him in scale better, the larger ones look better with the torso.
I think ultimately what we've got here is a case where he is right in between both torso options and bot harms options. There are going to be lovers and non-lovers of each. I like both, and I think you got him really well captured, especially for an in-his-prime Doc.

I think the smaller arms help the illusion but all in all I yhink it works and am happy to see it done. I really want to see the robe everyones talking about on your dr death
It looks like there's still old brock tattoo paint in the creases of muscle on front and back, spine, under the pec... grab a q tip and squish the cotton out passed the tip so u have a softer and smaller tool to use then acetone. Hope it helps. Brocks a hard torso to get zestfully clean

Here is the one I found that says series 1. You don't have a picture of the blue singlet version do you?
