Honestly, I didn't realize how bulky Barbecue is until these pictures. I have no version of him.

Yeah, he's a BRUISER.
 
Two part swap questions:
I've got a spare Law head now and I'm trying to figure out if he'd work as a Wade Collins custom. Greenshirt maybe? Getting the head off the greenshirt neck peg was a fuckin battle though. Maybe Grunt?

Also: Tony Stark (70s style, big hair, mustache) on a generic Marvel suit body for Hector Ramirez? I need to find a microphone that scales though, anyone seen a good one?

Yeah, these guys whose necks are meant to swap out really have a snug head hole! Grunt should be easier though. Would be cool to use someone whose body looks like basic military but not someone you already have on the shelf. For me that would be someone like RAM Breaker or something. Ugly Falcon's body probably isn't easy to come by...

If no one has a suggestion, I'll go looking. I imagine someone on Etsy has a 3D printed one to be painted. Having been on a film crew, it's obviously not necessary but would be incredible if you added the cameraman and soundman. (I can't watch reality tv where someone goes to a participants house to surprise them, but the participant answers the door already with a wireless microphone on their shirt and a cameraman walking behind them, without being that jerk that points it all out.)

To Ru's point about camera men, Jakks did camera gear for the old WWF/WWE lines, but Figures Toy Company has just the camera on sale right now. Wrestling figures from both Jakks and Mattel have come with mics that could work. Here's a lot listing on eBay, but you might be able to find one or 2 for cheaper.
