Big Bad Toy Store has George too!
-- Posted by Tamer on Thursday, September 30 2021
"We pay homage to George Lucas and his remarkable accomplishments in film with a likeness of the director himself, clad in the distinctive armor of an Imperial stormtrooper.
Kids and collectors alike can imagine the biggest battles and missions in the Star Wars saga with figures from Star Wars The Black Series! With exquisite features and decoration, this series embodies the quality and realism that Star Wars devotees love. Star Wars The Black Series includes figures, vehicles, and roleplay items from the 40-plus-year legacy of the Star Wars Galaxy, including comics, movies, games, and animated series."
You know you can trust them to ship him minty fresh too. No crazy damaged cards and bubbles from BBTS!

George Lucas back in AF Line Up...
-- Posted by Tamer on Wednesday, September 29 2021
The official site shared yesterday that Hasbro will be offering a 6" Black Series Stormtrooper George Lucas.
I guess it was probably George that picks the Trooper Outfit, but man wouldn't it have been great to get him in his "plaid" outfit with maybe a director chair!
UPDATE! He will be up for order on Amazon at 1PM today. Remember, the link won't work till then.

"When Lady Shadowmark needs discrete, precise surgical work she sends Euleria, but sometimes the mission profile calls for more force than finesse. This is what Skardossk lives for. He never fails to make a statement, whether is it to intimidate or eliminate."
Yepper, he does look like he can get the job done. I really like this one!

Did 2 repaints of 501st troopers using the new 332nd bodies
Still holding out on making a rex with the new body cuz I cant bring myself taking apart my black series Rex figure, and I kinda like the idea of being able to distinguish a difference between a phase 2 and Rex’s hybrid armor - curious what everyone thinks?
Ranting aside, hope you like the pics, stay well!"

Beccan Smarko: Hailing from Fondor, his dream was always to be a starfighter technician. He enlisted in the Imperial Navy hoping to achieve his career goals. Beccan was more than a competent tech, but he had a problem, he was chronically playing pranks."

Darth Daddy amazes us with his latest update...
-- Posted by Tamer on Sunday, September 12 2021
"This 3D print model of Kalani was designed by @bx3dprints. We personally commissioned him to do this design because Kalani was a character we wanted to add to our shelf for many years now.
To make the print durable like a Hasbro figure, here at home we used Siraya Tech Tenascious resin mixed with some ANYCUBIC 3D Printer Resin, 405nm SLA UV-Curing Resin with High Precision and Quick Curing & Excellent Fluidity for LCD 3D Printing - 500ML/Grey in a 70:30 ratio to decrease brittleness in the print.
Then after I laid down the base coats, I did the painstaking application of the paintwork adding all the filigree to the figure. Nerve wracking would be an understatement.
"THE CLONE WARS"
KALANI
created by BX 3D Prints & "Customs for the Kid"
Wow, is all I have to say. You have to click through to see how this was all acheived!

"Braxissenno P'ol Darquinsis, an Elomin Jedi.
Though brought to the Jedi Academy as a young child, Braxissenno (familiarly "Brax") was enculturated enough to have his species' focus on establishing order, which made him adept at finding patterns. He excelled at language acquisition and puzzles. Consequently, when war broke out, Brax became quickly became a respected code breaker."
That is just the start of a most excellent backstory for a most excellent custom.

"Might be a question of when, but I wouldn't want toy companies to varnish...Spector Creative just uploaded his intel on this topic:
When will 3D printing be used to mass produce toys and action figure collectables? Tooling replaced?"
This one will make you think. And if this happens what would we be in for?
Dan reviews the new Sam's Club Chap Mei Set...
-- Posted by Tamer on Saturday, September 4 2021
"Member's Mark "Giant Walking Robot" playset robot review:
This set is a repackaging of previously released Chap Mei "Soldier Force" items in a large gift set for Sam's Club.
The only "new" piece in the set is the "robot" (actually a pilot driven mech) so that is what this review will be focusing on. This is "new" in the sense that it has only had one previous North American release and that was through Toys R Us Canada and never appeared in the United States as TRU had closed down by the time it was released."
That is just a small part of his opening review. Dan always does his reviews with the customizer in mind.
