Awesome guys! Just did the poses from memory/imagination. The Rebels would never forget that it was Ewoks that really turned the tide. In the future the New Republic would use Ewoks as their shock troops. When the yuuzhan vong attacked, it was Ewoks that drove them back. Even when the Sith occasionally rose up, the Ewoks would send them packing... because in the end all you really need is a 3 foot tall fuzzball with a really sharp stick.

Thanks Commander Wolffe! Glad to be "awe" inspiring!

So we've seen a "What if..." with Leia before, in the "What if Leia were the pilot who flew the trench run and destroyed the first Death Star.

Now We have some more "What if..." Leia head-swapping-goodness. A head-swap or "mix-and-match" custom as I call it is one of the most fun, easiest ways to enjoy creating new stories and characters and still be able to have all your figures in their original states at the end of the day.

Here's some more from my "What if... Leia" series:

What if Leia had snuck into the Death Star to Rescue Luke...

"Aren't you a little stuck up to be a Stormtrooper?"

What if Leia had never rebelled from the Empire and went on to become a high ranking officer...

Or what if she had been born/adopted into the Mandalorian culture...

Hope you guys enjoy these! Stay tuned for more ideas!

Mando Leia does rock!

that stormtrooper version looks great

ActionFigEmpire · « **Reply #102 on:** April 29, 2011, 07:10:58 AM »

Thanks guys! Leia's pretty badass but in the movies I think she could have been more badass. She would have made a very dangerous Imperial, and definitely should have been allowed to be a pilot. She would have made an awesome Mando too! Princess of the Mandalorians... And she marries Fett?

FialaFernbrugg · « **Reply #103 on:** April 29, 2011, 07:58:24 AM »

great "what if" figures
the Mando Leia is my favorite

ActionFigEmpire · « **Reply #104 on:** April 29, 2011, 08:29:48 AM »

Thanks Fiala! Anything/anyone Mando is pretty much guaranteed to be awesome!

Here is the photo shoot that started it all. Early this past winter (around December) I ventured out into the backyard, into the thin layer of snow--grass poking its leaves through the ice--and created the very first diorama for AFE. This was a first endeavor in using natural settings and altering them slightly to depict the scene(s) I was going for. I had recently acquired the Defense of Hoth Target Exclusive Ultimate battle pack and was eager to try it out. These and other photos from that day were later used for the very first post on AFE! One of the shots was used by Art deWhill in one of his awesome paintings!

Check them out!
