A very nice upgrade.  Haven't caught the season 6 episodes yet---waiting until I'm home with the kids for summer break---but this gets me even more primed to catch those episodes. 

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

Man! I've been wanting to do this one too. It looks perfect!

Which head is that, Vintage or Modern?

I have to, but the prices of BG-J38 parts has stymied me.

Excellent job, Team Daddy.

Thanks guys! Elias was really pleased with the warm reception to his latest offering.

I just threw this one together on the fly yesterday.  His clothing isn't exactly accurate to his portrayal in the Dark Times comics, but he changed his outfit a lot so I just went with a mix of armor and traditional Jedi robes.  Anyhow, here is my custom Verpine Jedi.  I may make him more screen accurate down the road, but for now he's worthy enough to be the blog post for the week. lol

Very nice!  I'm honored to see you using the head. Really like 8D8 too--may have to scrounge through and see if I can come up with the parts for this one.

Very nice Brian. I like it a lot! Off to the front page. Man, so bummed Hasbro is not gonna give us any EU characters for awhile. I wonder what our chances of seeing one of these Jedi in the new movie will be?

And thank you very much for catching my Galactic Merchants boo boo. I owe you one!

I picked up another Greedo a couple of months ago for the same purpose.
When are you getting around to entering yours in the Jabba's Entourage Challenge?

Beedo's there.  I think he's on page 2 with Yoxit.

I made a few adjustments to Ziro.  I made his headdress attach magnetically, and I also repainted his tattoos with phosphorescent paint so they glowed under the black light like his appearance in the theatrical release of the Clone Wars movie.

Brian, looks fantastic under that blacklight. Oh what a shame Hasbro isn't planning on doing this one anytime soon! Back to the front page.
