Want to Be a Custom Action Figure???
« on: May 12, 2011, 03:57:40 PM »
I really want to continue my run of ISY member based custom figures so if you'd like to see yourself as a figure let me know! please submit a photo of yourself or a description of what you look like either here or via PM and tell me a bit about your customizer persona. This can be based on your ISY handle, favorite character, etc. and your figure will be featured here in HD photos along with the recipe so you can make one at home!

So who wants to be a custom figure?

So far i have done custom figures of Tamer and Luke Sprywalker. Lets add more to their ranks!



please note i am working with existing Hasbro sculpts and pieces. i should be able to create a good likeness of you but it may not be exact.

I'm already a custom action figure! 2 years ago, Slayer Designs made a sculpt of my likeness and several hundred were sold to customizers around the world :)

Ok to have a custom figure, I'll need a photo of your upper body and face. Or a detailed description (Hair, skin tone, etc.)

Also a bit about how you see yourself as a customizer and as a character in the Star Wars Universe. e.g. Are you a tie fighter pilot? A Crafty smuggler? A Droid builder? A Jedi? Mando? Sith? Etc.

And from there I'll run with it.

Feel free to PM me the details/photos if you'd like your info to remain out of the forums.

@ Ghostskull and Botwt: glad you guys are excited! You shall be my two next projects!

Also for Botwt can you spell out your forum handle? Is it Bot White? Or something else?

@Spectre: that's cool! Any pics?

Check out my Custom Universe thread. Look for the entry that reads "Spectre: Night  Force Sniper" :)

Awesome! I have been mulling over doing one of you for a while... still trying to think of the best way to do it... think I'll loo into getting a G.I. Joe Baroness head from somewhere for it.

Also please specify your preffered race for your custom: Human, alien, droid, etc.

Ya know, I'd like to get a custom of me!  Tell me what you need, what the deal is, and we can get started!

Ok, here are my deets:

I'd like to be an armored Jedi or Sith.  Not really sure which I'd rather be, so surprise me!
I like the colors Blue, Green, Orange, and Yellow
I have hazel colored eyes that change to match what I'm wearing, so to speak
I have reddish-brown hair with greying temples

Cool! I have one up of Spry :)

I have Hans' figure planned out, and I have Ghostskull's too with a back story! Going to shoot on sunday! I am ordering 2 figures specially to create Jenny's custom!

Here is the list for who has requested figures and the order in which they will be posted:

Remember it's first come first serve:

1. Ghostskull (nearly ready)
2. Botwt
3. Phatty
4. Hans Fartknocker (nearly ready)
5.  Beige 4? Not sure if he really wants one, as I am not going to use any paint, glue, clay, etc. That's the challenge I have slated myself with, nothing but original Hasbro pieces.
6. Commander Wolffe?
Wookielover1138 (on back order, as I need to order some special parts/pieces)

Awesome I've got my imagination working overtime and I'm digging through my bins for the necessary bits! Keep the requests coming!
