Looking nice; nice to see different versions and different peoples' takes on the same character.

Thanks.  It is cool to see what else is out there.  I've never played the games but checking out the images online.  There are a couple of ideas of my own I want to try.  We'll see.

Here are my renditions of Galen Marek/Starkiller in his Jedi Adventure Robes and Mandalorian Armor.  These Marek customs have been real fun to do.  Let me know what you think.

These two came out great. I like the Joe articulation on the Jedi version and I like the soft goods you used on the Mando version.

Very cool! My son and I love your Starkiller collection!

Thanks.  My daughter's only 4 months old and I hope she grows to, at least, like Star Wars.

Three friends about 30 years before the Clone Wars, Rafti Oroko, Grookr'sa'vra, and J'han Trevron were one of a few units of Jedi that traveled together.  Normally, Jedi would go on missions in pairs - a Master and a Padawan.  The Council long ago decided to have some very competent Jedi to travel the galaxy in small groups for special assignments.  Both Oroko and Trevron began as Padawans for Grookr'sa'vra.  When Grookr'sa'vra was given the assignment, he was told he could choose his teammates.  He felt his most recent Padawans would make excellent SAJG - Special Assignment Jedi Guardians.  At the onset of the Clone Wars, Rafti Oroko was killed during the battle of Geonosis.  Grookr'sa'vra and Trevron then went separate ways to lead clone troopers in different parts of the galaxy.  Order 66 was issued and immediately Grookr'sa'vra was hunted by his soldiers.  His Jedi training and natural instincts allowed him to escape but was abandoned on a very isolated planet when the new Imperial base was destroyed by CIS (now Rebel) forces, not knowing they were leaving behind a potential aid to the newly formed Alliance.  Trevron escaped his execution and stayed in hiding until after the Rebellion began to make great stride, just before the destruction of the first Death Star.  He then made his way to the Alliance, without exposing his Jedi heritage, and they assigned him as an intelligence agent near the unknown regions.  After the destruction of the second Death Star, he searched out Skywalker and years later helped in the rebuilding of the Jedi Order.  Although he was not an instructor at the Jedi Praxium, he did take on Padawans as he continued to work for the New Republic along the Unknown Regions and Outer Rim.
