Great update on the figures mate but I have to say that vampire figure is just amazing.

Ron

Thanks! He was a blast to paint.

Nice! Is that a Boss Fight blind bag head? It looks great.

Thanks! The heads and hands for both figures are indeed BFS blind bags.

Yeah. I had to work pretty hard to get the second round and still missed out on the Vampire set. Now they're listed as "sold out." So I may be out of luck on that particular one. We'll see if they get more back in.

Like everyone has already said, the Vampire/Bat is great.  Really nice job on the paint and I really dig the overall look and color choices for his outfit.  Pulled off a classic monster that still seems to have the Star Wars vibe.

Made a few new custom weapons including a Mandalorian-style disintigrator rifle and a wizard's staff with a GITD jewel atop it :)

Those are some neat accessories there. Really like the detail added to Mando's rifle and gems are always nice to look at - even on staffs. Good job, Dan.

Hobbits WIP

Made from the "Star Wars" "Mission Fleet" scale Kuiil and "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" Bala-tik heads.

They will eventually get some further modifications and accessories to individualize them, but I am happy with how they look so far.

They scale nicely with a standard 4" figure (represented here by a "Fortnite" figure).

After watching the entirety of "Star Wars: Droids" today on Disney+, I was struck by some of the cool, original designs used in the cartoon.

I used some spare Build-A-Droid parts and quickly whipped up these work-in-progress droids (still need painting) based on 2 of the more memorable astromech designs from the 2 part special "The Great Heep".

The spherical astromech with the single leg and antennae is the only one I was able to find a nice clear image of online.

Both droids have swiveling upper domes. The 2 legged droid has additional articulation at the ankles.

I will most likely not be following the colorways used in the cartoon and instead utilizing much more movie styled colors and weathering to make them fit in with the more realistic movie figures.

These look great Dan! Very nice. I need to go back and watch that series again. Man it has been a few years.

You can pause streaming video and use the snipping tool to cut and save pictures off the show if you are on a computer.  I'm going to have to take some time and watch those. I didn't realize they'd uploaded them as part of the vintage collection!  I saw that they'd uploaded the ewoks cartoon and movies.

I watched them on my smart tv, but will have to try that on my laptop eventually, thanks :)
