Well with all the work and time it takes for a new little one, I have very little time to customize, however, I have found a bit of time to throw one new figure together.

Story:

Cade Heth is what most people would call a super-genius. At the standard age of 9 he had completed a engineering degree at the Republic University. By the age of 14 he was fully certified to practice medicine. and by the age of 19 he was serving as a Republic research assistant on a science station near Coruscant. Then came the clone wars. While working at the science station Heth discovered a terrible truth, the group to which he was assigned  was working on biological weapons. In moment of anger, Cade programmed the computer to erase all research on this project. Cade was arrested and sentenced to prison for treason, however, the real architect behind this project, Darth Sidious, felt a more serious punishment was required and had Heth's prison ship attacked. The ship crashed on the junk planet Lotho Minor. Everyone on the ship died except for Heth. The once handsome young genius now had a severely broken body. However, this young genius, trained in medicine and engineering, had the knowledge to rebuild himself. Although he longer retains his youthful good looks, he is still extremely intelligent and very deadly. He now simply calls himself "Heth" and makes his living as a bounty hunter.

*I put this guy together over serveral days. The prosthetics are built out of random pieces of fodder painted to look old. I thought it turned out well. Share your thoughts. I may try to reshoot the pics soon because I am not certain I like the way they turned out. Anyway...enjoy!

The claw is made up of a CW 3-PO type droid leg and a the claw from a Crysis figure. The rest is molded and painted to look trashed.

P.S. I wrote the back story really quick. Hopefully I will have a chance to go back and fill it in with more details soon.

Thanks WB. The cyborg leg has pieces from 4 different characters and the arm has parts from two characters and some molding on my part. And even the non-cyborg left arm is made up from 4 different characters. I don't have a lot of fodder these days so I started piecing things together which is where I came up with this guy!

@ GhostSkull - The boot on the other leg was molded by me. It didn't turn out EXACTLY how I wanted it too, but at a certain point, I just decided to go with it and paint it black.
