    • Star Wars: Customs for the Kid
Hi everybody, I'm Elias and you may know me from my blog Customs for the Kid that I do with my Dad.  

Dad showed me Luke Sprywalker's Kit Bash a Figure Contest and I decided it was time I submitted a custom action figure to the contest and join the Yards. For my submission, I entered a fan fiction custom action figure of a female Kel Dor Jedi that was from Luke's New Jedi Order. To make her, I used the hands of a CW Plo Koon, the head of a Legacy collection Plo Koon, and the body of a Vintage Hoth Princess Leia. If we were allowed to paint, I probably would have painted her clothing a light brown similar to the way the Vintage Luke Skywalker in Bespin fatigues was painted.

KEL DOR JEDI










I'll try and post some more of my custom action figures later today.

The Infamous Frog Octopus

My first custom action figure was the infamous Frogoctopus. Frogoctopus was known to be seen in the Mos Eisley Cantina with her friend monkey sipping passion fruit juice. The two were known for adopting a different name each day when they introduced themselves to strangers, otherwise they were only known as Monkey and Frogoctopus. Monkey and Frogoctopus were former Jedi who had escaped Order 66. Her head was more squid like, but someone called her Frogoctopus and the name stuck.

Rock on!!  I'm jealous of her speeder - those suckers just hit the market, didn't they?  And I didn't know that breath-mask was removable!!  Great - back to the store for the rest of those clearance Plo's for me!!

Where'd the head for that froctopus come from?  I'm assuming the body is from the Gragra fig?

The Frogoctopus is straight out of Jabba's food bowl.

Wow, ok.  My Jabba came with a nicely detailed Oola and a whole lot of loose cushions.  Your Jabba came with a really neat looking snack-alien!!  I'm not sure which of us got the better Jabba.....
