I like the new Spirit, but I wanted him to have a blue shirt. I didn't like the head and the legs of the 25th version, even though it was more vintage accurate. However, didn't want to paint movable joints (ie. shoulders) so I did the option that didn't require as much painting. The color match isn't perfect in the pictures but in person, it's actually quite close, especially the neck since Hasbro made his face so shiny.
Here's what I originally did which was even lazier, but like I said, I wanted him to have a blue shirt.

Nice. I have been thinking about using an extra Shipwreck body on mine as well. The paint matches pretty well other than just being really glossy in the pics. Is that the 25th Spirit web gear? I will need to find some extras of those it seems. Good job all around.

Yeah, unfortunately, the lighting isn't too good but it actually matches in person. The arm ones are a little glossy as I matched the paint based on the head and didn't actually have the arms with me and forgot the arms were dull.

OOOH. Looks a whole lot better. I have been debating which head to use for my Spirit. I will be borrowing this recipe.
