Cool, I am a huge zombie fan. Maybe more then I am a joe fan. I have been thinking of making some zombies but I have never done a custom before. Maybe I will start one.

I would like to address the 80% rule if I may. It's used every time (for figs anyway) & I assume the intent of the rule is that the final result should 'feel' like a 25th/Modern Era fig. I like & agree with that intent. Could this rule be reworded to allow for more creativity? For example, a figure using Indy arms might be breaking that rule. A figure using a Tri-Gate torso definitely is.

How about as long as the scale & articulation match?

Exactly, the final result should 'feel' like a 25th/Modern Era figure. Just keep that in mind and you will be fine.
