THANKS

Just revisited two old figures and made some improvements.  One had major modifications and the other just had a simple body swap.

First I switched out the body of the Bothan Jedi I made in August to make him fully articulated and for my other figure was completely revamped her to produce a figure that was much closer to the concept Elias had created for his fan fiction character.  To make this custom action figure I used Apoxie Sculpt by Aves Studios to sculpt her into something much closer to his design.  It was my first time using this medium, and Elias was very happy with the results.  I definitely feel that it was a major improvement over the original.

[Jedi Minstrel]

I think I know how Vixey was done!  Was it one of those line of toys of non-posible animals?

Yep.  He cut off the face and sculpted the rest.  Thanks Dad for bringing one of my drawings to life!!

[Luke Sprywalker]

Great worl Elias and you guys know I love your blog! Now what I want to know is how did you get your hands on that SHIP?

We got the Jedi Turbo Speeder at the Hasbro Toy Shop.  I went to get a 2nd Zam Wesell, but she was sold out.  The speeder was a good consolation prize.
