She (both versions) turned out really well. Kudos! Nice job on the Rey head conversion particularly. Keep up the good work.

Thank you! I'm starting to realize a little additional sculpted hair can go a long way to changing the look of a head.

Nice looking Jyn Erso figures. They both turned out very cool. Good job on them both!

Here's a quick take on the rebel pilots from TFA. Everyone other than my stock black series Poe is still 5POA, but I've added Jess Pava and gave them some helmetless heads. Nothing too fancy, but I like the way they all look together.

Thanks to I Am Boba Fett for the great Abednedo head! (Snap is an old Luke head I had around, and Jess is a cast from another ebay retailer.)

Nice job on these! It really fills out the roster of pilots. I wish Hasbro was producing more figures from the movie.

Hey these are great, and Asty looks awesome! If this was Hasbro from a few years ago I'm sure we would see these pilots made. Sadly I don't think that's the case anymore. That's where us customizers come in.

Great job!

I've always been fascinated by the OT X-Wing pilots and that proved true for their TFA counterparts as well.  These are excellent. 


I have few nitpicks of TFA but here's one:  Okay, in the movie, did it annoy anyone else that Nunb only wore the huge pilot helmet but he didn't wear the orange flightsuit for the Starkiller Base mission?  Just leaving him in the blue vest and red coverall struck me as either a lazy decision or it was pandering like we might not understand it was Endor hero Nunb if he was in the orange pilot gear instead.

Yes! If I was able to to come up with a good helmet for him, I was going to swap his head onto another Asty body because him not matching irritated me a lot!
