                  The Adventure Team pieces have me drooling! Awesome work! Wish I could land my hands on one of those! And your Peter Cushing figures are spot on. Excellent pieces.

                        I think the first pic needs some elaboration. The rest are cool. Especially the Penguin shot. Looks like a candid shot from a Legion of Doom cocktail party.

                          Sad thing is the first pic wasnt "set up" to be funny.( I was swapping heads )
                          I was really sitting there and thats what my custom needs were that morning.
                          That picture alone is my life as a customizer.

                            I figured you were softening thing up for a Head swap. Although your pic composition was open to much comedy " Waiter there' a Mego in my Coffee!?!" My method is tupperware and microwaved hot water. The sidewalls of the tupperware are high enough that I hook the figures legs over the edge and let 'em dangle. My method would look like a torture pic.

                              PS forgot to ask. Who is the figure in the coffe cup? Not familiar with any Mego scaled that have a cigerette in hand.
