Stan, AjuntaPall, mr.Jedi1977 and Tamer, thank you all very much.
I dabble in the Star Wars Universe of Toys... I rip apart little plastic people and turn them into other plastic people. Sometimes I take pictures of them and post them.

Sculpted the little bags to hang on the back and attached a pouch I cut off of a Pilot Padme that was in my fodder box.

This "hammerhead" (I still call him that too.) figure turned out great. The articulation points are nicely hidden and the soft goods work well.

Gosh, thanks Tamer! Rumors are circulating that we'll see a new one from Hasbro. If it does come it might not be any more articulated than the previous version.



Labria was not on my "to-do" list, but when I asked my friends on Facebook and Instagram he came out at the top of a short list of makeovers people wanted to see. This is another "do the best you can with what you've got" custom. He'll be comprised of parts that are already in the fodder box. I'm using the POTF2 Cantina Aliens 3 pack version for the torso and head, Jedi Luke arms and Bom Vimdin legs. I had to sculpt a new neck peg to ball joint the head (which will get a full repaint).

Thanks for sharing that, Tamer.

I hope everyone likes him!



I always liked Hasbro's take on the costume (even though it's not accurate) so I kept that as the basis. The head was completely repainted. I hand sculpted a ball-joint neck on the original torso and used Luke Jedi arms and lower legs with Bom Vimdin upper legs. The wrist gauntlets are small pieces of a bendy straw. The cloak was left over from a spare Biggs (Tatooine) and the lower skirt was crafted from a black t-shirt. Big "THANKS" to my friends on Instagram who asked to see this character made-over.

Your custom Hammerhead and Labria figures are over the top excellent!
Hammerheads (Ithorians) have been my favorite SW aliens since my first vintage Hammerhead figure as a kid.
Super nice figures! 0/
