Looks really good. Phew, that's a lot of cutting though.

Another outstanding custom figure.
A very interesting and clever mix of parts.
Keep up the great work.

Thanks all for your comments. Here's an update on the Han & Luke in Stormtrooper Disguise.

I wanted to use the Rogue One Single carded Stormtrooper head for these, as it's such a good helmet. I initially wanted to do it as a removable helmet, but it's too small to drill out and fit over a reasonable sized head. So I just drilled it to fit as an alternate head-helmet. As it was going to be a headswap anyway I decided to try different heads and I think the TLC Han Death Star and TBS Luke Yavin work well, both fit well without modifying too.
I wanted Luke to be 'a little short…', so I hollowed out the recess in the upper torso a bit more to make it fit lower. It's not much but I think it improves the Luke Stormtrooper look, especially with the helmet head on, which I also drilled a little deeper than the one for Han.



Trash Compactor Luke with alternate 'wet look' head modified from a TAC Concept Luke.

Brilliant! I love how these turned out and the Jyn head works really well to replicate the cover art for the book. Thanks for sharing the recipe too!

Where does the time go? Here's some 'soft goods' follow up work on the 3.75" Rey custom I did last year. I'm slowly coming round to the sequels.

Rey (Jakku Scavenger/Speeder): TBS or TVC Rey (Jakku) with modified forearms and modified gloved hands with cuffs. Head from TFA Single carded figure. Soft goods wrap glued over existing torso. Custom synthetic leather belt with repainted bag cut from original. Custom soft goods skirt. Custom soft goods headgear made from Episode 1 Tatooine Accessory Set Poncho. Goggles cut from 'Rogue One' single carded Rey (Jakku) attached with elastic strap. Modified backpack from TVC Rey with custom synthetic leather straps and added shoulder pouch cut from TVC headgear piece. Removable flask cut from a second backpack.



Rey (Jakku): Custom figure as above, but with alternate no gloves hands from TBS Toryn Farr. Custom soft goods bag.

Wow, your recent costoms look incredible! The softgoods on Rey look amazing and take the quality of the figure to a new level! I especially like how her belt & bag look!
Brilliant fine work there! Thanks for sharing this beauty with us! Now, Hasbro only need to give us a proper headsculpt for Rey.

Thanks, Philipp. Yes it would be good if we got a 3.75" Rey head as nice as the 6" Island Journey one.
