With the release at the end of 2024 of Jude Law's Star Wars Black Series release of his character Nod Na Nawood from Skeleton Crew, an opportunity was presented for collectors of the Marvel Legends Cinematic line to correct (if they wanted) the 2019 release of Yon-Rogg from Captain Marvel.
The original figure was based on concept art and Yon-Rogg was given a helmet rather than the unmasked Jude Law as he appeared through much of the film.
The Jod figure's head will pop off the neck section by way of some gentle heat (I used hot water). From here, and ideally, while it is still warm and soft, it can drop onto the neck peg of the Yon-Rogg figure.
The neck peg on the Marvel Legends body is slightly larger than the Black Series neck so while the Jude Law head slots into place, it is very tight and the head will distort slightly if the head is turned either way - for a fully articulated fit the neck peg should be shaved down.
If you choose to customise or kit-bash your figures please be careful when handling knives or sharp objects or when using hot water or when heating up the plastics. Customizing figures can cause damage to the donor figures.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
