    Wolverine body

    Wondering what body you guys use for any Wolverine customs as he is shorter yet stockier than the other characters in the comics. Also interested what you guys use for characters like Sabertooth?

    Shorter, stockier men appeal to me. Shorter, stalkier ones...not so much.

    At any rate, I've seen some Wolverine customs use a Wee Win Samson body. It's teen titan-sized but buff.
    WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

        Yup, that is what I used for my custom with CAT swivel biceps. Looks great.

        I always liked this outfit for Logan and looked forward to having it Mego style when DST/EMCE announced it. Being a fan of the Brown suit I was ecstatic for this release, but when it came out I was not too happy on the color accuracy of the yellowish tone, orange in this case. Not complaining as I did like the orange and brown

              A good recommendation. Been trying to score one for some time after they sold out only to find these are fetching for quite a bit. Hoping to find some on close out or some random store on the low end so I can take apart and make a Mego Arnold.

                    I'd use a remco wrestler body and MEGO arms & legs. The result is short and muscler.
                    Check out my picture library of Mego-ish compatible vehicles with ID data.
