Title: DSD's Custom Figures
Post by: DeathStarDroid on April 01, 2011, 08:24:22 PM

I have only done a few custom figures in my collecting career. I will share with you all the 2 that turned out decent. lol

First up is my custom R5-D4. I made this figure way before Hasbro did a modern version that looked good.

Second is my Cloud car pilot. Again I made this before they made a modern version. Hope you enjoy!

I like the detail on the R5.  Haven't done a droid yet, but when I do I hope it turns out half this good.  Great job on both.

That yellowed Stormtrooper seems to pop up all over the place.

The Cloud Car Pilot does serve as a nice nod to the vintage one, despite never seeing any real screen time.

...says the icon with no speaking lines...

;D

I never got a vintage/Kenner Cloud Car pilot of my own.  I had to wait until my sister and I were much older (adults) and we were cleaning out mom & dad's house for a move.  She holds her hand out and says, "Here, you still like Star Wars, right?  Want these two?"  Her Vader and Cloud Car Pilot became MINE!!!  MWAHAHAHA!!!  erm, ah, yes.

Nice figures you made, there!
