    Wicked Witch of the East as She-Hulk

    I was just checking things on the ol' ebay and I happened onto the Oz wicked witch. I dont know if this has been discussed before but wouldn't the wicked witch of the east make a good she-hulk?

    Go for it.

      I think the body would but for the face, she's sorta of horrid looking.

        I agree. Get a DM head, pull out the blonde hair, dye the sucker green with some Rit dye, reroot her with black hair, or get a wig from Polyester, put her in one of the She-Hulk's many outfits, and you're done!

          The body's a no-brainer, but I agree with Anthony and JediJaida on the head

            I usually make customs for my daughter and I. We like to pick out characters and design them. There are some characters that we (my daughter and I) notice that need to be on the 'bigger scale'.
            We have our own version of the Hulk and She-Hulk we made from non Mego items to set up with our Megos.
            For She-Hulk, I found this really nice looking 9" Star Trek Insurrection female figure that I painted and designed her boots. I made the costume from scratch.
            To me, I never liked the dinky Hulk Mego put out. I love Mego but I think that was a major flaw with the company.
            That Wicked Witch body to me is waaaaaaayyy to small for She-Hulk but if you are going for that Mego-like look, then go for it.

            Just my two cents.

              They were trying to keep him in the same height scale as the other figures.

              I figure, if you're going to do a Hulk or She-Hulk properly, they'd have to be at least two or three inches taller than a Mego doll, with the proper muscular proportions.

              For the Lady's sake, don't use a Babs!

              Try a CyGirl or one of the CoolGirls. Or one of the females from Triad. They have a brunette who has the kind of p***** off expression you expect from She-Hulk.

              Dying her green wouldn't be a huge problem, although I'd write to the manufacturers to see if she could be dyed.

              If not, then maybe vinyl spray paint or craft acrylic might be the way to go.
