    Are Lion Rock hands the same size as mego hands?

    I'm doing a 1966 Robin figure and I'm useing a Lion Rock body so that it's a inch smaller than a regular mego body.I want to replace the regular hands with gloved hands from Cast-A-Way Toys and I'm not sure they're the same size.If anybody knows if they're the same or not let me know.If they're not the same size where can I get glove hands to fit?Thanks for everybpodys help.

    I believe the Lion Rock hands are smaller.

      They are indeed smaller. You could paint or maybe dye the Lion Rock hands. Or just have great big hands that look like they have gloves on. So too big and green actually works for gloved hands better, I just realized. So maybe you should just use the bigger hands...

        Hmmmm....

        Yeah, the Lionrock ones are smaller, but not by much. You could probably get away with using regualr sized ones. Or CTVT ones; which are a teensy bit smaller than original Mego ones.

            Would plastidip work, I wonder?

              Side note: Lion rock hands are just a Teeeeensy bit larger at the wrist socket than Our Gang hands. They still work on the wrist pins though. Fun Fact.

                can't wait to see this custom. I'm thinking of trying one myself at some point, and I'd love to see a well-done version before I start my attempt.

                I think Doc does Teen Titan style gloves in green, but I might be mistaken.

                  Try this: The Classic Plastick Toy Company - Home You have to register, and I don't think he makes actual hands, but he does sell green gloves.

                    Plasti-Dip works to color parts, but on hands it doesn't always lay flat. I've gotten decent results, but there's usually a bubble or two.
