Great figures! Massuri gitru is fantastic. I like the head, the warrior body is also pretty awesome.

Thanks, JDeck! I was pretty excited with how well the parts combined on her. I got interrupted while posting so I've got a few more for tonight, actually.  :)

Yeah I really jumped the gun. They're all really well done. The what if concepts are smart and imaginative. Has nollo has to be my favorite, really cool looking, i really like the swamp thing head.

I'm really happy with how he turned out. I knew when I saw the Hiya toys Swamp Thing that I could use it for this figure - which I've wanted to do since the comic came out (which is like nine years ago). If I was ever to do a photonovel (which is unlikely) I'd probably use him as a central character. I loved the alien concept for Han and the Dark Horse folks did a good job turning the early version of George's script into a story.

Tellery Hedrakim - a very successful gambler, but also quick with his hold-out blaster or vibro-sword cane if necessary. Known to many simply as "Teller," Tellery is very gregarious and social, with a vast network of friends and acquaintances. Though not technically an information broker, he does have a wealth of valuable information and contacts, which he might be willing to share for a favor in return.



Recipe:
     Head = Marvel universe Mr. Fantastic
     Body = TVC Peasant Anakin
     Jacket/Scarf = Force link Lando (from Solo)
     Cane = Jazwares Assassin's Creed Evie Frye

Very nice. Looks like my kind of scoundrel. Wonder if he owns a hunk of junk?

Thanks, Tamer. Don't know yet about the ship, but I don't think it will fit the "hunk of junk" category. Tellery has to much style for that:)

Thanks, JDeck. I was hoping to do a character that looked a bit "upscale" and have always thought the peasant Anakin body worked well for that. You know, the string tie and fancy vest of the "gambler" trope of the 'Ole West.

Thanks, RC - consort? bodyguard? personal assistant? droid? or maybe he's just a loner...we'll see

Iglean Mud-Runners: so named because of their ability to run across the scalding wet mud flats of their native planet. For three decades Imperial zoologists insisted they were non-sentient so they suffered as "game" to various big game hunters. The hunting was stopped by interference of the Jedi-in-hiding Erris Raek (seen on page 44 of this thread). In fact, they were quite sentient and call themselves the Cha’Qua’Doc. They are not advanced in terms of electronic or military technology, having only developed to steam technology, but they are masters of minerals. They can “smell” different minerals like a bloodhound can follow an animal scent or a pig can smell truffles. They make beautiful jewelry, mineral gardens, and have the most advanced stone architecture in the galaxy. There are four “categories” of Cha, roughly translated (in an attempt to keep the original Cha alliteration): questors, cutters, carvers, and constructors (those who find, those who dress, those who decorate, and those who assemble). All are equal – no class of Cha is more esteemed or less – they are a very cooperative and collectivist culture, not a caste-based one. This particular Cha is called Sansy-dran and belongs to the "quester" discipline. He is the Cha with the closest relationship to Erris, and would like to go off-world with him some day.





Recipe:
Head/Tail = Jurassic World Ramphorhynchus
Body/Arms = Mustafar sentry
Upper legs = movie Alpha 5 arms
Lower legs/Feet = Some purple lizard figure I found at Walmart (I can't remember the line)

Sure does look to me like they could run on some mud. Great body style and most excellent background as well.

Awesome! The parts you used worked out great. I like the reverse kneecap, i forgot to biological term, but you know what I mean. The head is really cool.
