    Custom of the Week - 1/28/2013 - TV Wonder Woman

    It's never hard to find something good to put in the header, but this week it was especially easy. The spotlight falls on Mr. Leitner's spot-on rendition of Cathy Lee Crosby as Wonder Woman. Lynda who? Somebody please sell me an Invisible Woman head.







    See the original thread here:

    Cathy Lee Crosby! I was asked to make her suit so I added some boots and borrowed a head from the Invisble Girl to make a temporary custom.



    I think someone should fix her up with this guy

    Good pick for COTW, that is one perfect custom - even though I still prefer Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman.

            Awesome!!!

            This one was really a nice surprise Brian!!!
            I had forgotten about Cathy Lee Crosby. She was a fox, as we said in those days!
            You nailed it with the Invisible Woman head! It looks just like her!!!

              Putting that head with that costume works so well and is so simple. No one thought of it before but Brian; that is just sooo right!

                    The movie may have sucked, but the figure is great!

                      Thanks, everyone. For a pretty straight forward custom she's getting a lot of attention.

                      I can't take full credit for the head choice. There was a thread here with a lot of speculation on who I.G. looked like. I thought CLC was a good bet. When I popped the head on with the suit it was, "oh yeah". That works.

                      She can date TV Cap but Austin has to chaperone.

                              While it's still COTW, Brian is one of the best! When I shouldn't do an outfit or head, he is "The Man" I go to. Custom Megos Forever (CMF)!
                              This site, is 'The Bomb'. Brian makes it mushroom cloud.
