We have so many Heel Legends figs for 85/86 era, but not enough Face figures.
Would love a remake of Hillbilly and the new Steamboat will help.
Who else do you think we need to fill the void ?
USA Express of course.
Pedro Morales
Tito Santana in purple Ariba shirt.
Haku
We won't get another Snuka that's for sure.
Who am I missing >
S.D Jones

85/86...
Killer Bees
Rougeaus
Tonga Kid
Corporal Kirschner
Big & Strong machines
Billy Jack, Dynamite Kid & Snuka too of course but those arent likely to happen.

Orndorff was a face for a chunk of that time, he counts right lol?
In all seriousness, Hogan, JYD, and Andre are the core 3 that I use when taking pics of my figs. We need a Tito from this era really bad though, he was a pillar.

85/86 was all about Hogan/Mr. T and Andre.
I would buy Cyndi Lauper
Big Machine and Stong Machine
Uncle Elmer
A new Hillbilly Jim with molded overalls
Dynamite kid
Maybe a new Tito but not a need.

Some absolutely incredible work, a joy to look at. SD Jones is a sentimental favorite, but I think I'm most impressed by that Ted Arcidi figure. He was a big bulky dude, and you nailed his proportions. |

Sometimes you just have to make your own babyfaces. Excuse the pic quality, took them super fast without regards to lighting. [7.jpg"] [/url] [/quote] Mind if I ask what parts you used for the Bulldogs and Arcidi [/quote] I made them awhile back and have a bad memory lol. Arcidi was a supreme fighting machine kama singlet, I believe big show arms, the legs were possibly the bigger Kurt angle ones. Davey boy was an Austin body with Dusty Rhodes arms Dynamite was a Neville torso, but can’t remember the rest |

Im trying to make Ivan and Nikita Koloff and I'm struggling to find torsos with red singlets |
