Ooh, that's real nice, man. I'm not a big fan at all of the concept white supersoldier look of Boba, but this figure on a card like this sure looks might fine!

damn that figure looks good clint.  I realy wish I could add one of those to my collection.  i guess I need to get off my lazy butt and mail in my redemption forms...
I still haven't sent off one for the missile launching fett either!  do you know if they are still available?


I've been racking my braid for an idea for this project that I can whip up easilly and nothing that I've wanted to do will be possible in the short amount of time I've got left...

I had a permenant WIP mando that I thought might be nice to finish for this contest... but per the rules I didn't think that'd be allowed as an entry.  I've never finished the figure but he has been posted in the WIP stage for nearly 8 months!

Sorry, Devin, it's got to be a new custom as per the rules and can't have been posted anywhere prior to this contest.
The rocket firing Fett redemption ended this spring.

as I figured per the rules that'd be a no go.  No biggie.

damn... I figured I'd missed the buck on that one.  Maybe I can find one on e-bay for a horribly inflated price :/  that's what I get for being a slacker and then going to the middle of nowhere for 4 months!

I am really stoked on this contest and all the great entries that are posted! I thought I wound never be able to enter this one as I have very little extra time right now. As luck would have it, it rained a good portion of the afternoon yesterday so I went into my bin of figures I parted out but never finished and grabbed a female Mando I was really stoked on but it involved too many mods and a major helmet mod to produce this character. I spent 2 hours yesterday cutting, dremeling and sanding by hand on this helmet. It looks pretty accurate to the character but is a tad bit too big still. Not much I can do about that at this point because if I trim it any more there won't be much thickness to it and could develope a hole. Today I will move on to painting it and creating the extra bit/gear from scratch. I really hope I can get this done by the deadline!

My interest is primed to see what you come up with, LE. Could you section the helmet to make it smaller?

Bo'Zuckuss! Basically the Rudy of the Mandalorians. Always sitting on the side lines of battle saying "Put me in captain! Put me in!"

"The Empire has a legion of loyal soldiers that are in endless supply."
"Only Imperial stormtroopers are so precise."
"For the Empire!"

I wondered if someone might take one of the new Fetts and modify it.
