I'm looking for some things to complete some customs. I'm looking for Joe size Roller Skates. I Ref Women's Roller Derby and my Fiancee is on the team. I'm making her a Customer figure along with some of her in her ACU while shes Deployed in Afghanistan for a Christmas Gift.
I have a Skateboard (I think its Chap Mai or some dollar store kind) and I figure they must have roller skates out there somewhere. So if anyone knows of any (or has any) let me know. Thanks! |

Other than some Rollerblade-like accessories that came with a Corps! subset years ago i think you best bet would be to get a small scale skateboard (Walmart used to carry very small ones) and modify the trucks & wheels from them.

Great Idea, Good luck finding skates. I seem to remember there being a Polly Pocket set with roller skates from like 1988. You could start there. Not sure of the scale will be right tho.

These should help a lot. I wasn't even thinking to look for doll house type ones. I'm sure I can get one of those to work! |

You should also try a search for Lanard's WOW Girls, as there was a roller skating girl in that line.

You may also want to check Polly Pocket or LiL Bratz line.

I think I have a Jubilee from the X-men line who wore skates. They didn't actually work, though.
