    Need suggestions on parts for this custom ghoul

    First off - I'm not an 8" Mego guy. I collect Micronauts so I'm not familiar with WGSH, POTA, WOZ, or XYZ, etc. But I want to make a custom of this guy. He's a local celebrity who used to introduce scary movies on Friday nights - when I was a kid. I figured I could use any T1 or T2 body. I wanted to try and make a custom head (which I've never done) but was wondering if there is any existing figure whose head I might be able to use instead. Most of the head is covered by the cape and he's painted so it might be easier to use another head from a similar figure. I'll make the cape myself and can probably find black shoes but where can I find yellow gloves, black pants, and a black shirt?

    If I'm able to make a decent one then I'm going to try a second one but pimped up a little and armed. I'll take any suggestions.
    Trying to upload a photo from my computer but getting "invalid file" error so I'll keep trying.

    Boss hog head would work...
    "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn"

    In the Southeast Pacific, lies the sunken city of R'Leyh. There lies C'thulhu waits to return to our world with the other Great Old Ones. A hideous creature of enormous size and alien power, it waits for it's time to return patiently. For it has all the time in the world while it waits for the stars.

      This might be a decent, cheap, accessible head...


      Head


      Only other one that comes to mind would be a CTVT Fred Mertz "I love Lucy" head, but you're going to have find someone in the Marketplace with that. Ain't easy to come by anymore.

        Head
        I didn't know this sight existed. I see a couple things on here I can use. Are there other sights like this that sell Mego-sized items?
        Thanks a lot!
