You're on fire, man! And my eyes are burning in euphoria! Excellent tooling on the astromechs! I got some Kir Kanos figures from Asia and might swap some heads, too. Need to complete a couple of them with softgood first, though.

Thanks for all the inspiration!

Interesting that I am only seeing about half of your images. Could be my computer again. I love those Astromechs! Off to share some of this before the morning leaves me.

Wow, I haven't really tried sewing things. Maybe something to consider... Thanks!

Tried viewing through a browser that was not logged in and they look good. Not sure why you can't see everything. Refresh? Try another browser? Anyone else having issues?

And since I'm here; I'm really trying to get through the back-catalog of customs. This one has got to be at least ten years old, but recently got a new paint job to fix some scuffs. Used the body and arms of Chi Eekway from the 2006 Lucas Collector's Set, and I don't remember which Nemoidian head to make this lady Nemoidian.

I found the problem. Go back and look now!

And how about one more fan-fic human jabba guard today!?

Skiff Lando arms, Nikto Skiff Guard chest and belt/skirt (repainted), Boss Fight Studio head, and I don't remember where the legs came from.

That last guard is a recent update. A previous version of him used Wooof legs, but I noticed on the shelf that I had two black guys wearing the same pants so I changed one. And I think the new pants also corrected a disproportionate leg-to-body size, making him look much better.

Older version with his pants-buddy.

Great head swaps (I'm all about head swaps)! I particularly like the old death star trooper head on the new body - excellent call. I like the Duros rebel officers as well, I hope you don't mind if I borrow that. I agree with you about the pants on this last figure, good choice to change them out. Great updates!

Very nice. Back to the front pages. I like the leg choice for the new guard.

Thanks guys!

Here's a couple RARE figures from me. Rare because they're on-screen characters instead of fan-fic.

First up is Jabba's pal Geezum. It turned out ok, but honestly I'm not sure I love this Agen Kolar body. I may one day revisit this figure.


This guy is inspired by the Aqualish that can be seen in Jabba's Palace, but is probably not all that screen-accurate since there aren't good pictures of that guy.

Oh yeah, you guys have had a glimpse of the shelf dio, and the office workbench (foldout table), but you haven't seen the closet organizers.

Holy mackerel! That is an awesome closet - more a shrine! Would you share a picture of the inside of  one of those clear boxes to organize all the different parts and accessories?
This is such a brilliant concept!
