has anyone successfully put UE HHH arms on an older elite without shoulder swapping? -WMD If you mean swapping at the bicep, then unfortunately no. Plus the UE arms from the biceps down are the same as any double jointed larger arms (eg Cena, Triple H, Warrior....) so they don't need to be UE. What I've found is the peg length of the shoulder balls for single jointed HHH style arms, is too long for the socket part of these new double jointed HHH arms. Meaning you'll have a gap between the older shoulders and newer double jointed biceps. Even if you cut down the mushroom caps of the older elite HHH shoulders, it'll still be too long. This is because the length of the stem part of the peg between the shoulder and the mushroom cap/peg tip, is too long. You'd need to drill into the socket to make it deeper, which will then need the fit tightening with sculpt or something or there'll be a risk of it coming loose again. But for info - the smaller double jointed arms can be swapped onto smaller elite shoulders for single jointed arms, all that is needed usually is to cut the mushroom cap/peg tip down to a narrow tip. I bit the bullet and swapped the shoulders, thankfully it worked out well! -WMD |

I wanted to say Sabu, but there was a recent figure released to another company. Taz may be too on the nose too. I’m going to go with Lance Storm. |

I got kind of hopeful Mattel would make him when he made that brief return as an agent a few years back. |

Has anyone cracked the MNW Ultimate Edition Bret Hart? If so, is it the new style peg or old style?

I did some more Bret modding with the MNW hairpiece. I dremelled the cranium down and his ears off to fit the piece better.  On the royal rumble '93 ultimate and rsc exclusive   On the defining moments with different glasses  I also did this but did not like it.  It looked better with the glasses but a little Michael Jacksony  |

I found the new Piper Basic at Target. The They Live head with the blonde hair works a lot better for 92 Piper imo.  |

Posts that make me go look up KOTR 2001 and realize that Shane's kicks from that year had the swooshes after all, I just never realized it because his pants were usually too long to tell.
Time to go update a figure or two
