Wonder twins custom questions

[filmation batman fan]

Being a Super Friends fan, I have to ask this question since I rarely make it to the customs pages. Has anybody ever customized or attempted custom Megos of Zan and Jayna? I have always wanted to have or make customs of the Wonder Twins to complete my Super Friends sets. I know that Dr. Mego has purple bodysuits I can use and the bodies. Plus, I know there are purple oven mitt gloves and plastic purple boots.

My questions are:

1: Is there anyone who can cast heads for Zan and Jayna?

2: Is there a way to make Mego like emblems for the Twins costumes?

3: Is it possible to reshape the boots and add the yellow outlining?

4: What fabric would be needed for the purple belts with the yellow circle?

5: What fabric would be needed for the purple collars and v shaped back end designs?

Any input would be appreciated. If there are pics of Wonder Twins customs. I'd like to see them. You can either answer me here or PM me.

It is my goal to someday have Megos of the Wonder Twins. Somehow. Someway.

Try Black Knight for the head...
Paul lasermego Wasson for the Emblems... Hope that helps for a start.

Personally, I would use purple vinyl from a 3-ring binder for the collars & belts. You can get purple resin gloves & boots from Dr. Mego. Lavender bodysuits can likely be obtained from member bleit, and he can perhaps help with the collars/belts, too. I believe BK has the WT heads.

I'm still hopeful that I'll someday see Wonder Twins professionally made by FTC.

A suggestion making the Wonder Twins, use a Spock head or retro Black Adam head. They both have pointy ears and the same hairdo as Zan. Both heads are available fairly cheap and would look OK.

Just get BK to make the complete figures. He does a super job and you won't be disappointed.

Black Adam doesn't even have the same hairdo as Spock, let alone Zan.

That's a great way to go. BK is amazing.

I would have Austin enlarge the Wonder Twins DCUC heads. Those sculpts are pretty good.

That's a good idea. Austin is the king of re-size. I've always had good results with his enlargements.

zan.jpgspock.jpg Thunderbolt I admit that Spock is not an Exact lookalike of Zan but you do have to admit that they look similar and it would be much cheaper to pick up a common beat up Spock, than have a full on custom made. A Brian Leitner outfit on Spock actually may look pretty good. In my opinion if a custom Mego can be made by recycling, why not. Again just my opinion. Everyone is free to make there customs how they want.

go back and look at my post skippy, I questioned the Black Adam head having the same hairdo.

Thunderbolt, you are correct that the Megos I suggested are not 100% accurate for Zan. They do however have enough similarities that they could pass for Zan. This hobby is about fun. If a figure can be made on the cheap I am all for it. For me personaly, I would rather have a Wonder Twin Zan made out of a Spock for 40 dollars than a full on 200 dollar or more custom. Maybe if I win the Powerball lottery I can be more picky, but for now I am having great fun doing this hobby on a shoe string and coming up with new inventive ideas to create more figures. Isn't that what this hobby is about?

well, it sounds to me that the original poster wants to do it right instead of settling for a Spock head like you would.
