Looks great! Cool to see them all together. The soft goods are excellent. It's sure nice to have access to third party printers for heads and parts we might not be able to sculpt ourselves, isn't it?

Hey guys! It's been a while. Here's the most recent custom I finished. Tunghori has been restocking Sandstorm Leia over the past few weeks, so I grabbed one (as well as a Bespin Escape Leia from him) to make an updated Slave Leia/Jabba's prisoner/Hutt Slayer figure.

The recipe isn't mine, but I had to copy it.

Head: VC Bespin Escape Leia
Body: VC Sandstorm Leia
Neck chain: Trilogy Collection Slave Leia
I used little metal rings from an old necklace for her earrings, and used a copper colored permanent marker to repaint her hair decorations

Nice! Tunghori may be the only outlet for this Leia figure that doesn't cost more than Jabba.

Absolutely phenomenal work on Leia's head! After the latest interview of Victoria's cantina with the brand team, I gained new hope for an updated version of Hutt Slayer Leia for TVC and TBS!

I'm also a big fan of your Darth Revan custom! Almost looks like Hasbro got inspired by it as well for their upcoming release. Wow!

And I agree with Starchaser.

As a followup, I love the Bespin Escape Leia's head sculpt so much, I'm using it on two more Leia bodies, that I also picked up from Tunghori....

(Random thought...how easy would it be for Hasbro to make one head, and make her hair braids interchangeable? Each of her hair styles could easily just peg in the back of her head)

Incredible! I wasn't really aware of her good likeness before. You did a great job modifying your Leias!  0//

Sweet!

Sweet design, indeed! Love the hybrid of BARC and Death Trooper helmet! Brilliant idea there.

Vintage Collection "Get Off My Lawn" Hermit Luke Skywalker [page 15]
« Reply #220 on: August 01, 2023, 07:48:46 PM »
I'd like to share some of the older customs I did over the past few years while on hiatus. This one is from 2017-ish. I call him "Get Off My Lawn" Luke Skywalker from the Last Jedi.

As much as I dislike the sequels more then the prequels, I really dig the concept of his costume. It kinda has a Lord of the Rings/Hobbit vibe, mixed with pieces of his costumes from Return of the Jedi.

Parts:
Hood, Jacket, Head, Hands, staff: Jedi Exile Luke
Body: Clone Wars Count Dooku
Lower Legs and Lower Arms: VC12 Darth Sidious
Magnet and Metal Lightsaber: Saga Series Hanger Duel Anakin

I like the way he turned out. Really nice combination of parts.

A Skywalker, Solo and Palpatine walk in to a bar.... [page 15]
« Reply #222 on: August 02, 2023, 04:38:04 PM »
Here's another few customs I did back in 2017. I'm not even sure why. I guess I was pretty bored back then! LoL

Rey had 5 point articulation. So I decided to give her more. I used the 3.75 Black Series Jakku Rey's head, arms, waist and upper legs. Lower legs were from Cami Marstrap.

Kylo is from the 3.75 Black Series, minus his cloth skirt, and the plastic skirt underneath trimmed. The cape is from an old Vader.

Re: Vintage Collection (Marauder Inc) Chirrut Imwe [page 16]
« Reply #223 on: August 03, 2023, 04:51:33 PM »
Imagine its 2016, and Rogue One came out. You think Chirrut Imwe is the most interesting and unique character to come out of Star Wars movies in a very long time. He's not quite a Jedi, he's blind, but he can see using the force, sort of a Star Wars version of.... Daredevil.  Hasbro is on it's 5 point articulated figure kick, and you really want to have an articulated version of this cool character. So you make your own, using a Marauder Inc body, and scavenge as much as you can off the 5 point articulated Rogue One figure.... and you come up with this!

I wanted to show a comparison of what Hasbro eventually released as part of their Vintage Collection....which looks terrible. I also wanted to show what a head swap would look like on the Marauder body.

The Marauder custom looks good. The headswap is a great idea. My problem with the Marauder figures is they are just a smidge too tall for some figures.
