The Ultimate Action Figure Build Off!
« on: June 19, 2013, 07:28:37 PM »



Announcing the Ultimate Action Figure Build Off! That is right, our upcoming contest is sure to challenge everyone to go all in. Pick your favorite character from any verse and make the ultimate version of them. Take a look at Sideshow or Hot Toys figures with multiple hands, alternate head sculpts, lots of accessories and so on. We also want to see a small base or mini diorama made to compliment the figure. 3 3/4 inch figures only to maintain a level playing field. This must be an all new creation so no figures that have been seen before on the web even in WIP stage. The contest starts June 20, 2013 and ends July 20, 2013.You are allowed to enter 6 photos in this contest thread. We will create a voting thread when the event ends and you will have to choose 1 photo to upload to the voting thread with your name and the name of the figure, nothing else. So have fun and your imagination is your only limitation!

Do Video Games Figures count too?

I've been having an idea in my mind for quite a long time. ;)

I've got a couple of OT SW characters in mind but might go the Joe route because of diorama fodder I have. Hmmmm decisions, decisions.....

I have an idea I might like to try on this myself. I am so loopy right now though I do not need to be messing with power tools.

Oooh! This would be a great time to try and make an ultimate Tey How. If I made her command chair (that she can actually sit in), would that count as the base/diorama?

Also, when you say figures that haven't been seen before, do you also mean characters that have already been made (ie Nute Gunray), or just customs that have been made or are in the works? Because if I can't do Tey How, I'd like to try and make Nute Gunray with a proper mechno chair.

Ahh, Lott Dod, you perfect example of male Neimoidian masculinity.

Neimoidians are love!

Kweh,

It just means that it has to be a new item of work never been shown anywhere before. I can be a character you have done before as long as it is a new creation.

Anybody make any progress yet? I have my figure done and now I'm working on the accessories. I still have to decide on what to do for the display base.
