    Yvonne Supergirl

    Hello Fellow Mego People,

    Not much of a custom, simply Yvonne body & head, CTV outfit & Doc Mego boots:

    That head kinda has a bit of Helen Slater ('84 Supergirl) going on IMO.

    Just for fun, hope you enjoy.

          I like it. Only thing I might consider is maybe just a bit of tailoring on the leggings to better show off the Zica body.

                  I was thinking the same thing...The flesh "pantyhose" looks kinda off. Better to remove it and show some "skin" as it where...but otherwise I like it!

                      Looks great, does have a good Slater resemblance.

                        Can't say I disagree, in fact I'll go I step further-her shorts (um, in the crotch) hang down too low. This actually bugs me more than the leggings.

                        But alas I can't sew, so she is what she is. I'm OK with this, otherwise I wouldn't have a 'Mego' Supergirl.

                        As for the Helen Slater thing I never planned that, I noticed it after the fact. That said I hope someone out there (who can sew!) uses Yvonne to make a screen accurate Supergirl-I look forward to seeing that!

                        And to all that looked & especially those that have commented, thank you. Like I said upfront, not much of a custom but hopefully it inspires someone to do something better.

                            Looks great! I agree with the others about the flesh color leggings. Where did you get the Yvoone head and body?
                            was it Zica? just curious since it might work for a custom I'm thinking of doing.

                              Yup, from Zica's E-Bay store. You have to buy the 'old stock' blonde head separate though, as the figure comes with the black hair head. Note that their description of the of the blonde head clearly states it has a lighter flesh tone than the new body, and it does. Can't really notice this on Supergirl because all you can see is her hands & part of her neck & chest.
