    Bionic Woman custom?

    Since there has been little news of getting one from BBP, I have been thinking of making my own Bionic Woman Jamie Summers custom.

    Any tips for the head and outfit?

    Thank you.

    Great idea!
    If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

      Very nice. Is that a 12" Bionic Woman head shrunk down? Or maybe a Brady Bunch girl?

        BBP should just make a generic "Steve's Girlfriend" That looks like it could be a blonde we know, and dress her in jaime's style clothes.

          Always thought this was a line Mego could have done well with. It's really just a cross between Dinah-Mite and Super-heros. Always thought Alter Ego clothes would have made great accessory sets too. At least the girls. Could have had Joanna Cameron in her archeology clothes just like the Saturday Shazam Isis Power Hour.
          It's not a doll it's an action figure.

            I agree, I wish we could've had more outfit/accessory packs. But maybe Mego felt burned by AJ.

              How can you shrink an existing 1/6 scale head without the acetone ruining the paint job?

              Mefiboschet had a foreign solvent that worked for this, but it was pulled off-market I think...

                Also keeping the hair in tact since re rooting it would be pain.

                I want a Marsha Brady now but can't find one for sale. I think she is close enough.

                  But aren't the Brady heads bigger?

                        I don't think you can keep the original paint job intact. The chemicals that shrink also remove the paint. I think that head had to be re-painted. Where's Lou? He should be here to shed some light.
