    Super Friends El Dorado

    Someone I'm surprised I didn't do long ago from the Super Friends: El Dorado. Modern Mego Cornelius body for the skin tone with regular hands under the gloves and a Lancelot repro head with slightly re-sculpted hair and painted face.

    He looks great.

    BTW, do you mean you used a modern day Caesar figure for the skin tone, because the Cornelius I own is much darker? I ask about the Caesar/Cornelius thing because if there were Cornelius figures released in the lighter tone, I'd be on the lookout for a carded one...

      Fantastic. I was wondering about Lance also, to upgrade the FTC version. Did you sand/dremel down the sides of his hair a bit?

        That sounds like the Cornelius with the brown hands and body they released with the orange Zaius. The Ceasar I had was far more like the original Corny tan body in color. Now I'm pretty sure it was Ceasar, but he already had the costume removed long ago, and I don't recall off hand if any of the new Cornys were made with a tan body.

        No, actually the only sculpting I did was add a little to the top of each side to round out the head a little and re-do the front to make the bangs. Everything else is as it was before.
