I saw a guy on Reddit that made a nice ML Domino custom using the Shriek arms and legs. I'm still mad about having my order cancelled on the three pack with her, Rictor and Cannonball a long time ago, so I figured I could make my own. I found a cheap enough Shriek, and she arrived Friday. Saturday night I started the boil and pop. Her legs and arms are pinless, and her arms are double elbowed so it gives a lot more ROM to the figure over all. I swapped over the feet from the original Domino figure, and overall I'm happy. I'm waiting on a couple of gauntlet parts, and then she will be complete. Once I have all the parts, I'll take some better pictures.

What really catches my eye is how the white stripes from Shriek's shoulders line up with Domino's white skin. Don't know if that was planned or a happy accident, but it works SO well, and makes me want to copy the idea. I would want to maintain the leg armor, just because it's a unique sculpt that adds character, but not necessarily at the cost of Shriek's pinless knee joints, which clearly you prefer. I wonder where I can scrounge some removable leg armor options should I go this route. Anyway, I love swap customs, and I love your Domino because of that.
 
The original custom (seen here) looks like they painted the shoulders to cover that white. I 1) liked it 2) am too lazy to paint that little bit. I got the gauntlets in yesterday, but haven't taken any new pictures yet. You could, leave the original legs if you want the armor. Pinless isn't a prerequisite for me, I just wanted to do the same custom as him (minus the gun belt). The arms have a MUCH better ROM, and the poses you can get are fantastic. All that being said, the shoulder on the right arm of mine is a bit loose, but it isn't anything I can't deal with. She's gonna be posed and left as is anyway.
