    don't have one either, I am going to work with CTVT parts and see what I can do

      Mego did two sizes of Fat male torsos. A short one used on Mxyz and Penguin, and a taller one used on the Wizard of Oz. Original India production fat male torsos are the shorter scale. New China productions are the taller ones. I discovered this when I made my custom Doc Ock. I didn't like how short he was with the CTVT/India fat torso body. Purchased original Mego Wizard body.

        Speaking of alterations,..I altered the Jokers jacket to stay opened, rearrange his buttons to make him more screen accurate (wish buttons were sold a lot smaller), Painted Riddlers shoes green and repainted his lips to make him look more like Gorshin:

          I checked Riddler's shoes and altered some robin shoes to get the look of the slippers he wore:


          And made a 66 style Two Face.

              its a Matty head repainted with my own custom made suit. Modeled after this cover:

                Nice kit bash on the Two-Face and the Riddler shoes. I still think Two-Face on that cover looks like Lyle Waggoner. He doesn't inside, but...

                    Here's another tip on the new Shame figure! I blow dryed the hat for a better fit and I took out his belt and bandana to look more TV accurate,..what do you think?

                      get him some real guns, and he carried one on the show, not two.

                        all you have to do is removed the one holster ....but he does look cool with 2 guns

                                so that means a 66 Batman Two-face is eventually coming?
