Road Pig was always one of my favorite figures as a child and is definitely one of my favorite characters as an adult. The one thing that always bothered me with the figure was the height. I definitely needed to fix this as well the smaller less defined arms of the original. I was able to add the height and additional girth to the arms and legs. Critiques are always welcome.

Nice custom. Do you have a WIP picture of the legs?

I did not think to take any WIP pics while I was working on the legs. I did use a dremel to cut the boots of from both set of legs and then attached the longer boots to the calves with the shorter boots. The thickness of the legs was built up using apoxie sculpt. Thanks for looking and the comments.

Nice job on the modifications, the sagat arms are much for fitting for that torso. Love what you've been doing with these custom 'noks.

This is a great update to the classic Road Pig figure... the last figure I bought as a kid on my 11th birthday because of the obvious Mad Max homage.

Nice to see all the RAH love lately!

Thanks for the comments everyone. I hadn't noticed that I never uploaded a comparison shot of Road Pig with my custom Buzzer that is of a normal height, and my Dreadnok called Gristle that is shorter.

More images can be seen here.
