Hey all, finally did some new customs and fix ups..got a few old ones and a bunch of new ones to show so i hope you all enjoy:)
first Lou Ferrigno as the incredable hulk...this was a birthday present to my dad last year:)
one of my favs for the way he turned out...the mighty hurkulease
(brooklyn brawler head)
The rock and roll exspress
Terry Funk
Col.Robert parker
Texas Tornado
Iron Sheik version 1
Legion of doom
Iron Sheik version 2
Mr Fuji ( totally inspired by another members fantastic custom of him...thank good ness i had a meeyagi head in my parts box)
Missing link
This next one i am peticularly proud of...My Abdulla the butcher...
i watched him for years and even though i thought the yoko chest was a good choice for him,the yoko bottem made him way to big...
abby was heavy but kind of short and his lower half was smaller then yokos by far so i got creative... ill exsplain as we go...
abby is half is original figure from the waist up and a spare bam bam bottem from the waist down...with his pointed boot feet swapped in place of the regular feet ...
of course the is major a major dip from gut to crotch pice but with abby having cloth pants i glued a strip of foamy around his waist and crotch to even it out a bit and once the cloth pants are pulled up to under his man boobs it to me looks much closer to real life abby:)
Baron Von Rashki
i admit my jim cornette leaves much to be desired but her is my spiffy midnight exspress(who are now endorsing skittles!) LOL
I know this has most likely been done a million times already but mine has a spare lanny poffo bottem and knee pads insted of being painted;)
Sid Justice
Strike force
"If anyone intterupts volkoffs singing of the russian national anthem... i will break them!" LOL
come on sing along you know the words...bad street atlanta ga.....
i admit a very basic Big boss man
Macho man randy savage(sabu head because i love the intense look with titos hair inplace of sabus
"Evolution who? out with the new in with the old man!"...lol
The killer bees might not have enough sting to beat these to...
"Everybody has a price,in the awesome classic superstars tag team division!" (insert dibiasie laugh here)...lol
" oh by the way, this is my body gaurd ace"
These guys have been waiting a long time for the british bulldogs to get made...now the epic rematch...is almost here:)
LOL, well theres my group thus far... i will say jakks has its good points and uits bad but at the end of the day as a fan of mostly 80s wrestling, they have really done great filling in much needed holes in the classic collection.
Thanks Jeremy and Jakks for fianlly making alot of the guys who had been long overdue...
the era of hulk a mania & the four horsemen along with all the larger then life personas will never go away:)
take care all:)
