Bode Akuna Custom

Got inspired yesterday after finishing Jedi Survivor and decided to make Bode Akuna. Can you guess the recipe?

Recipe: Body is an old Nick fury action figure with his hip holster cut off (actually 2 nick furys were used because I took the other Nick furys hip holder too). Dremmeled a line on the chest for his shirt color, painted him up, then glued on the holsters, some fake leather I had laying around, and a 3d printed jetpack I designed for him. The head was tough to find a match for, I ended up stealing the head off a wandering Obi wan figure and dremelling a muddy han figures hair off until it fit.

Nice Clearance Find

Found at my local Northern Utah Walmart for $17. Cheaper than the Lando hanging next to him priced at $19.99 🤷‍♂️. Couldn’t pass him up for seventeen bucks!

I touched up the paint on this lightsaber and sealed the paint with Vallejo matte varnish for the black grip section and Vallejo satin varnish for the emitter, neck, switch, and pommel.

For paints, I used Vallejo Game Color Glorious Gold and Game Color Silver as those are durable paints.

When it comes to varnishes that brush on, it’s best to give them a full day to cure. Varnishes protect the paint from scratching and rub and I often use them on 6” figures, but this time around, it was the first time I used it on a 3.75 accessory in order to prevent rub on the figure.

Maul vs Inquisitors Pic

I finally got my hands on Marrok and The Crow, and couldn't resist getting a shot of them both ready to take on Maul for my Shadow Lord review. And getting The Crow figure has made me appreciate him a lot more, his outfit has really intrigued me and I love the claws he has. It's such an incredible figure, as is Marrok, but he just .... looks like a knight to me. Oopsie! I'd love to know more about who and what these guys are, but for now I'm happy with the mystique. And I hope you all enjoy my photo too 🤞🏻😄

Custom Ships.

I posted my x wing display a few weeks ago and have had some requests to post closer pictures of some of the custom ships that are in my collection. Posted are Red 6, Red 4, LAAT 501 Gunship, and Blue Republic Y wing from the series finale of the Clone wars.

We need more small ground vehicles

I also have the imperial attack tank, its AMAZING, but we need more for the rebels, also more rebel troops like the pathfinders from rogue one, that would be a cool 4 pack army builder, what do you think?

First TVC purchase

Hello this is my first post here because today I purchased my first TVC Kenner figures, I mainly collect Black Series and Hot Toys but recently I’ve gotten a vision to pose different scale figures together in my display

I found this two pack at Walmart and I thought since I already have Obi-Wan and Commander Cody in both 1:6 and 1:12 scale these could pair well with them, my only criticism was the price being a bit steep I think, ($39.97 USD) but other than that they look amazing!

Whatever happened to Yord Fandar?

I was super excited to see his figure be announced and was going to wait for it to go down in price, as the majority of my collection has come from the clearance/reduced sections, and I expected Yord would probably end up as a peg warmer as The Acolyte didn't have the best reception. But I haven't seen him on shelves once, the Hasbro site doesn't even have him listed under TVC, and resellers are charging way too much for him - I saw one that was around £50! Does anybody have any idea what happened to the TVC figure of him?

With SDCC happening this month, what do you think we’re going to see revealed?

I’m wondering if we’re going to see some more Jedi for Battle of Geonosis. Would love to see an updated Yoda and Kit Fisto for sure, along with an updated Mace Windu.
