Here is another custom from a video game I grew up playing. This is my version of Moff Seerdon, the main villain from the video game Star Wars: Rogue Squadron.

Kohl Seerdon was a Human male Grand Moff who served in the Galactic Empire and was aware of the tactics of Rogue Squadron during the Galactic Civil War. During the Galactic Civil War, Seerdon held control over the gas giant Taloraan and its tibanna gas mines. He also had a Weapons Research Facility on the planet Fest. During the war, Seerdon started consolidating forces to take over Rebel Alliance bacta supplies on Thyferra. The Rebel Alliance watched his moves closely. He was one of the most dangerous enemies of the Rebel Alliance flight group Rogue Squadron months after the Battle of Yavin.

While there are no official images of Moff Seerdon, I put together my own version of what I thought he would look like. You could always hear the smugness and overconfidence in his voice, and to me the figure head I chose seems to best match that. I am not sure what line this particular head comes from, but the body I used is a Luke Skywalker/Lt. Jundland figure from The 30th Anniversary Empire #39 comic pack. I trimmed down the neck peg some, and dremled the neck hole a bit bigger so it would fit properly.  Lastly, I repainted the rank badge so it was the correct markings for a Moff - top row of 6 blue squares, bottom row of 3 red squares and 3 yellow squares.

This was my first attempt at making a ball-jointed neck figure from the boil and pop method. I did a practice run on a previous figure. This one came out ok but I would like to try again at some point. I wanted to make my own version of a super articulated Dash Rendar from the Battle of Hoth during Shadows of the Empire. I dremeled out the head which came out ok, then did some dremeling to the neck post as well.

Head: POTF Dash Rendar
Body: The Black Series Wedge Antilles
Helmet: The Black Series Dak Ralter

Thanks guys.

I decided to give him one more try, and I'm glad I did. They always say third time's the charm. I'm much happier with this attempt, I was able to get a much cleaner cut around the neck. I based this figure off a trading card seen here.












I also had a spare Dash figure, so I made a really quick custom from this image. I believe this image was in the Shadows of the Empire players guide. I just dremeled a bit on the chest to fit the chestbox in, and put some tacky material inside where I dremeled so the chestbox would stay in place. Nothing fancy, but I thought it would be a cool figure variation of Dash.
