I used to have that Chewie!  I bought him and Prince Xizor together along with Leia disguised as Boushh.  I miss that figure.  Have they remade Leia in that disguise?
I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

Thanks guys! Glad you like Snoova

It's really frustrating when you run out of specific inks/paints in the middle of a project!!

I've got a bucket load of customs waiting to go at the moment, and i'm really getting the hang of using the Dremel to "remove" molded armour / details from older figures. It means that I can finally us my old POTF2 figs as donors!

I'm going to make a start on the cutting and building of my third (and final) Centurion/Blanx/SW cross over in thenext couple of days. I'll take plenty of pics as I go along to share the build with you.

Cheers again,

WB out!!

On the Dash can his upper torso move seperately from the lower like most newer figures or is it all one immovable piece?

I love "Ace": looks great...now I've checked in on purchasing some of those Blanx figs too.  Thanks for the awesome example!

SOTE Snoova looks good; can't wait to see him fully done up and painted. 

Nice updates!

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

That jet pack clone looks incredibly cool and I really love the Snoova.  I wish Hasbro would re-release the SOTE figures with updated sculpts.  I'm working on a fully articulated Guri myself, because Elias and I are reading the book together now.

Re: Almost finished SW/Centurions Blanx SA figure!

Hey guys!

Here's my first, almost finished, SW/Centurions crossover...







The 'Centurions' appeared in the days after the fall of the republic. Rumour has it that they were members of the Republic Army who raided a super secret orbital research centre called 'Sky Vault' in the dying days of the Clone Wars. They made off with three sets of experimental armour. This armour contained weapon mounting hardpoints directly on the armour.

The three Centurions work as bounty hunters in the outer rim. Each specialises in a particular environment - 'Bantha' is the code name of their land warfare specialist....

Love it!  It came out great!  So since you chopped the legs and swapped them out, is he the same height as a regular figure?  How bulky is he compared to a regular figure?
I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.
