I've got multiples of these I'm going to try to convert the lower body on to have a swivel waist and tbar or ball joint style hips.

Can anyone thing of a figure with a tbar or ball joint lower torso that's textured anything like the lizard figure? Does this make any sense?

I’m not sure what you could use. Possibly a Green or Hob Goblin, but the texture may be too much.

You might be better off creating your texture.

Everything I can think of has more of a scale mail look, more intense than this would be. Now, if the swivel waist isn't a requirement, you could modify the existing crotch and add a T-bar to accept Joe style legs.

Alternately, maybe the trick is to come up with a reason they wear trunks instead?

some waist/legs with pants would make a great killer croc

Yeah. I've converted hips before. But I've got 4 of these so I was looking for a short cut.

Just wanted to confirm I wasn't over looking an obvious option!

Totally. Dhalsim ARAH waist and you'd be good to go... but these guys don't wear pants... :shifty:

a couple that might get you close from Hasbro on ebay. free shipping on orders $15 or more,

textured thighs
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Marvel-Legends ... j3qeldKvuA

slight texture, but green
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Marvel-Legends ... Sw8XNanuAE

I think the same thighs, not green but less boot
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Marvel-Legends ... SwbgJanuAX

It's really the waist/hip area I need but these are good ideas.

Anyone know what name/line this Spiderman was sold under? Maybe from 2010?

Yeah... those led me to this one. Just might work.
