Does a mount count as a base/dio background? (A custom Dewback)

WOW! Amazing entries guys! This is just what I wanted to see everyone pulling out all the tricks of the trade. Really great looking ARC Trooper Chad! Really love all the gear and the base you created. William, that is a great collectors piece. Really nice presentation and tons of extras with that set. Rex Smoke, a dewback would be much like a vehicle, witch we are not allowing to be presented for this event. We simply need to see your figure with a base. Have a look at what everyone else has submitted as they are exactly what we asked for in the contest rules.

Ultimate Mandalorian Pin-up Girl

 Here is my entry. The Ultimate Mandalorian Pin-up Girl!

"Why?" you may ask.  bbfet Because, in my Star Wars universe all the ladies are sexy and don't mind showing some leg. And the rules clearly state that the character can be from any universe and mine is as good as any.




The Ultimate Mandalorian Pin-up Girl is, of course, also a Jedi.


Unfortunately all of the Ultimate Mandalorian Pin-up Girl's ultimate vehicles were impounded by the fascistic Imperial Shipyards. But fear not! She still has her trusty Mitrinomon Z-6 Jetpack!


Ultimate features include Articulated Directional Thrusters and Rangefinder!


Ultimate Accessories include: Her loyal Techno Service Droid , a jetpack, a backpack, a cloak and two heads!
Ultimate Weapons include: A lightsaber, a Westar 35 carbine blaster, a custom projectile carbine rifle, and a Bes'bev! 
To read more about the Bes'bev follow this link. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Bes%27bev


Thanks for looking! Good luck to everybody!

Wow, just gorgeous figures.

Hemble, Lucasclones, The Wiloughbian, and Rex Smoke all have entered their info into the voting thread and I have added them to the poll. Please don't forget to do that folks. This is gonna be one hard vote!

Time to get another one of these featured on the front page. Then, I am off to bed. I am beat. You ever chase a seven year old through a crowded water park pool area all day?

^ Love that... and the background too... I think I even like that more than the custom.  They compliment each other perfectly.

So Here is my entry, Embo from the Clone Wars series.

Unfortunately there are not really any additional accessories from the original clone wars figure but the figure does have full articulation including ball jointed hips. PLus Embo is huge standing waaaaaaaaaay taller than the vc CW Anakin.

Embo has a bunch of sculpting involved and this being my first finished piece in which I used Aves sculpt I don't think it's terrible. Altogether he has sculpted legs, feet, torso, arms, and collar. The rest was taken from the Clone Wars figure (Best Hasbro CW figure in my opinion)

Finally is the gun, the gun was a kitbash using the very tip of the gun from some G.I.Joe gun, the bow parts from the cw embo gun, the barrel of the gun from a potf commtech stormtrooper and the base from a scuba rifle (the small one in which came from weapon lockers)

I will be posting embo with his diorama(just some painted up Hasbro bases, sorry got lazy), lin the actual contest entry thread in just a few minutes, let me know your oppinion of him and criticism is welcomed  ;D

These are all SO FREAKING AWESOME!  I had hoped to enter, but wasn't able to upload pics in time.  Oh, well.  It is what it is.  Here is a sampler, the rest of the pics can be seen in my figure thread.

I understand that this will not be considered for the contest.

ULTIMATE SCORPION!
