![]() Just some pictures of what I am using on the jacket. I'm going to have to paint it brown and do some simple blue paint and paint the boots brown too. I have NO idea what I will use for a head. I want to try and use something with little to no sculpting to it. Tips, tricks and ideas for his head is more than welcome, actually, I really need help! The jacket is from a Mutt from Indy movie line. It was one hell of a tight squeeze on him, but I think it looks great. ![]() ![]() ![]()

That is what I need help with, I honestly have no idea. I am very limited on what I have. I was thinking of using a movie Thor figure head and just have short hair for Thunderstrike.

Might be a costly ordeal but a Steve Rogers headsculpt with a sculpted beard would look cool, add the ponytail on the back. But honestly not much comes to mind in MU, Joe heads may be the option.

Wow, man, great idea with the jacket. Rock N' Roll's face looks a little timid to me. Here's some ideas that may sound a bit crazy at first and would depend on how much work you actually want to do. I don't know how you are at sculpting/painting but the Piledriver head would look pretty good. His hair is already slicked back which would simulate it getting pulled back by the ponytail. You can add a goatee. On Eric Masterson's face, it's separated from his sideburns, where as on Rock N' Roll's, it meets the sideburns. Also, on Steve Roger's and Rock N' Roll's heads (at least from the RNR's I've found online) are short and parted indicating more of a mullet hairstyle where as Masterson's looks like it would flow like Age of Thunder Thor's hair if the band were removed. Also Piledriver's face has more chiseled features and is more aggressive looking by default giving it a lot more personality. The clenched teeth and enraged brow make it an obvious choice for me.

An Arker sent one with some figures I bought from him, I was like OOOOOO, CUSTOM JACKET! It is a VERY tight squeeze on him but it looks great. I got to sand down the 2 saucers on his...lower torso too. I also got to make a mace out of my extra hammer, which I got to have planned out perfectly because I only have a one time chance at getting it right.

I was thinking 25th anniversary rock n roll as well. Looks good so far, you painting the jacket brown? Do you know where it came from other than showing up in your box? Reread on the jacket, Nevermind.

I thought he said it was from the Mutt figure from Indiana Jones: Crystal Skull, Shia Lebouf's character. I just assumed he meant he got that figure in his box free or something

That jacket works well for thunderstrike. I used the same one on a BNB Brett Hart. Tight fit indeed. Maybe I'm missing something but what is the Eric Masterson head? Is that a WWE BNB head? Nothing comes to mind right now but def someone with an open mouth look. The only head I can think of os RAH GI Joe Gristle.

Eric Masterson is Thunderstrike's "real" name.

Ah I feel so silly. All I could think of is Danny Masterson from That 70's Show. lol Should have known that thx. So there might be a WWE BNB or MMA figure that has the right face. My guess is that you will have to sculpt a goatee though. IDK if anyone has casted a head that would work. here's a couple newer ones:
