So i had this slash figure with sewer samurai leo's leg and i was wondering what to do with it, then it dawned on me i could use my bootleg raph to make a custom :D any tips/suggestions?
Here's slash:

Personally I'd keep the bootleg raph and use an original figure... the vintage bootlegs are becoming increasingly harder to find these days.

As far as tips.. it depends on what you want to do... if you want to replicate the slash figures leg adding some texture would be a good start.... otherwise the smooth and rough skin might look awkward together.... could be wrong.

Or if you wanted the Slash to have the bootlegs body, you will need to drill a news hole in the figures chest and cut the old neck off then sculpt a new neck and over the old neck hole..... otherwise slash will be looking straight up at all times.... thats all i can offer

Also what toyline is that cardback slash is standing on from? I have this robot guy that has metal pieces of bike armour that connect to him in a similar fashion and I haven't been able to identify it. All I can make out is samurai

I really just wanted to replicate slash's legs pretty much, or maybe make my own based on them :embarass: i'll probably have to redo the surface and paint it over..i only have clay to work with at the moment but it may be a start until i can get some sculpey or craft porcelain.
I had no idea about that :tconfuse: in that case i guess i'll just keep the thing and build a new one from scratch?
The card is from ronin warriors, or samurai warriors as it was known here, but i don't think there was ever a bike armor so it may not be much help.

There's you go, track down a Movie 3 Turtle to "borrow" from and make a Samuari Slash. Stupendous!
