"Who remembers Morley from The Clone Wars cartoon? No articulation, but I love it anyway!

3d print from Chad Peak."

Looks spot on from what I remember. Don't forget to check out Peak OB1 Custom Creations to get one of these for yourself!



Clonehead walks us through his Arcade...

Clonehead has taken the Arcade 1 Up games and really added a ton of custom additions to make this one of the coolest things I have seen in awhile. The dedication is just fantastic.



Black Thorne shares a new diorama...

"I got some new biggers dios to share in a near future, both in the final stages., but I had to take a creative break. So, in the meantime I did a palm sized small dio using a fantasy flight Razor Crest to fresh my mind. Here is the result."

Looks fantastic to me!

RC-1136 shares a new squad...
-- Posted by Tamer on Sunday, January 29 2023

"So I've been working on a ton of 1/18 Military projects lately. I finally finished my USAF Spec. Ops. Pavehawk, I repainted my entire collection of U.S. Vehicles, and I updated my USMC MARSOG Raiders.

Here's my interpretation of Modern Warfare II figures.

1/18 JoyToy Modern Warfare Customs - Pictured from Left to Right: Lt. "Gaz", Sgt. Soap McTavish, Cpt. John Price, Lt. Simon "Ghost" Riley, and unnamed SAS Operator."

These look flat out tough to me.



Darth More checks in on Tunghori...
-- Posted by Tamer on Sunday, January 29 2023

"TungHori finally listed one of the newer TVC figures. It's an Ewok and doesn't cost $20-30 this time. This will be a good year for some Endor dioramas. Get your loose samples on

www.tunghori.com/starwars"

Nice to hear it isn't crazy pricing.



JDeck puts us onto a new crate...
-- Posted by Tamer on Sunday, January 29 2023

"I found another crate to add to my collection. It's the Disney parks Dok Ondar Mystery box. It's a blind bag of Miniature star wars antiquities. Like busts, statues, helmets etc. I think I got a chase variant, a Jedi holicron, that lights up. I might be able to use it in a diorama or something. I just got it for the crate.

The crate is kind of cool. It only has detail on one side, so you have to stand it on It's short side to see it. It has the Crimson Dawn logo and says Crimson Dawn property. Pretty cool. I ordered another, but that'll probably be it, unless I actually start collecting the things inside."

Looks great to me. Be sure to check out this thread and scroll around as there are some awesome finds in there.



Don shares a new custom...
-- Posted by Tamer on Sunday, January 29 2023

"The Star Wars version of Oscar the Grouch. 😉

I don't think the character was used. But I'm pretty sure the production art by Jake Lunt Davies was intended for Canto Bight (pic 5).

I got this 3d printed head from Redflare Models and made the body from whatever junk I had laying around."

Looks awesome to me. We need more characters like these.



JDeck creates a Rocket Firing Fett...
-- Posted by Tamer on Saturday, January 28 2023
"Didn't take long to customize this deluxe Boba Fett. I took the rangefinder from the deathwatch mando, cut the old one off and drilled a hole in the fett helmet to plug in the new rangefinder and painted it. I separated the rocket from the flame effect and sandwiched a chip LED between them. Then ran the wire through the jetpack and added cotton smoke to hide the wire."

Looks spot on to me folks!

UPDATE! JDeck shares the link to where he gets his lighting stuff. Some of this is already set up to go and dirt cheap!




Ron Hembling shares a new Fallout Diorama...
-- Posted by Tamer on Friday, January 27 2023

"Hi All,

Fallout T-45 Power Armour, 1:12 scale.

Recipe.

Armour/fallout gear - the armour/pipboy/nuka cola bottles/ chems/fusion cores are all from

https://www.patreon.com/Budget3DWorks/posts

and you can order these items and heaps of SW gear on his instagram page

https://www.instagram.com/d.s.prints/

and you can see his builds here

https://www.instagram.com/ds.artwork.and.more/ .

I 3D printed all the above items and then printed off labels and applied them to the Chems and I printed off a pipboy screen and applied it to the screen. I made a few mistakes on the power when I was pulling the supports off, so I decided to make the armour look old/battle damaged. The bobble heads and Nuka caps I got of thingiverse.
The toolbox/tools I also got off thingiverse and resized them, the laser rifle is from the Funko's Lone wanderer figure and the chain is some old jewellery I had in my parts box.

Base - is foam and the sides are foam board, and the corrugated sheets are corrugated carboard and the framework is balsa wood.

Ron"

Wow folks, magic from Ron as usual.



JDeck shares a lighting update...
-- Posted by Tamer on Friday, January 27 2023

"I put a light in my probe droidhttp://www.imperialshipyards.net/SMF/index.php?topic=10103.msg231976#msg231976. I should have taken pictures of it's assembly, but it's all connected by screws and a washer. The eyes are all separate pieces. I think it's a really underrated figure."

As if that were not enough he did some great "whistling birds" for ole Djin too.

Mr Nunb is already confirmed by Hasbro. Let's hope that this will not be the new MRSP:

Dan reviews the new D and D "Rakor" Dragon...
-- Posted by Tamer on Tuesday, January 24 2023

"Hasbro "Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves" Rakor, Black Dragon Review:

It is great to see "Dungeons & Dragons" getting some mainstream toy love as it has been almost 40 years since the legendary LJN toyline was on the pegs.

This dragon is fantastic for the $34.92 (Walmart) MSRP! It has the usual shortcomings of a line aimed at kids- soft sculpting details and limited articulation. The dragon is approximately 11" tall, by 18" long and with a 20" wingspan. The articulation is as follows: ball hinge wings, swivel hips (4- limited range of motion on the back legs) and head (limited mobility due to the horns on either side of the head) and a hinged jaw."

Click through to read the rest of his awesome review!



Coruscant Cantina Customs creates a super articulated Twi Lek...
-- Posted by Tamer on Sunday, January 22 2023

"Twi’lek figures are the focal point of my collection, as evidenced by my customs. This Twi’lek Jedi from the 3 pack is one of the only male Twi’lek figures that’s been made, and while I think the headsculp is quite cool the figure had next to no articulation, which isn’t good for posing and displaying at all.

I decided to transplant the head onto a pre-existing Kit Fisto body I had in the fodder bin, and he turned out quite posable indeed!"

He sure looks awesome to me!



Coruscant Cantina Customs shares a great custom his dad made...
-- Posted by Tamer on Friday, January 20 2023

"My dad created a really cool B'omarr Monk custom that he wanted me to share with y'all. It's based on the original concept maquette made for Return of the Jedi.

This version differs considerably from the final design, featuring fewer legs and an absence of the bulbous piece on top for a less spider-like appearance. He added additional details to the figure using random parts to better match the model and gave it a nice black wash."

I like this a lot!

JDeck shares a Female Stormtrooper Build...
-- Posted by Tamer on Tuesday, January 17 2023

"Made a Lady Jaye inspired Stormtrooper. Using the EE exclusive joker squad Jes with Lady Jaye head and backpack. The backpack I added some greebles. Sandtrooper pipe, fallen order scout backpack, the lower section of a mortar trooper backpack from Audes. The rocket launcher is a under scaled one I I got from shapeways."

Looks like a great build to me.

Ron Hembling shares a new Indiana Jones Diorama...
-- Posted by Tamer on Friday, January 13 2023

"Hi All,

First build for 2023 and hopefully many more to come.

I have a few of the old Disney 7" Indy figures so I decided to start using them in dioramas. This one depicts Indy on an actual paid dig by the university.

Indiana Jones 7" scale.

Recipe.

Figure - is from Disney and is 7" in scale and I got him into a pose I liked and glued and covered the joints and painted and weathered him using Vallejo Paints.

Diorama - the main part of the base was built using foam board and then I used high density foam and cut out all the individual stones and glued them into place. Once the stones were all dry, I then used watered down Spak Filla and dapped it over the stones to give them a more realistic look.

The soil/dirt was done using a mix of Spak Filla/sand/dirt and then applied it the areas and once dry I gave it a wash of Vallejo's Chocolate Brown and the vegetation is grass tuft and shrubs from Army Painter.

The relics/pots/skulls I got off Thingiverse and I resized them from 28mm to 7" scale using my 3D printer. The table/crate/lowering hoist are made from balsa wood and the rope is just some string I have had in my parts box.

The flames/torches/ where made using balsa wood and Woodland scenics Water Effects and the lantern was made using scraps from the parts box and I then added LED's to them."

Folks do you see now why I think Ron should be working for ILM?

Coruscant Cantina Customs knocks the dust off...
-- Posted by Tamer on Tuesday, January 3 2023

"Hey all! seems like the last time I posted was in 2018... oops! I graduated college this past year and have been getting back into figure collecting again. Anyways, merry (late) Sithmas with my first custom in a long while.

I completely repainted the face to make it look more “sith-like”. This was my first time repainting a face and I did it with some Model Master “Flat Black” and a carefully whittled toothpick point. Very Tedious!

I hope you enjoy! Glad to be back"

It is so awesome to see him back! And what a great Sith Gal!

"The Fortress System playset kits as well as individual parts are now available from the main Hole in the Ground Productions website! Get them here:

http://www.holeinthegroundpro.com/fortress.html

Great for Star Wars, GI Joe, Halo, Jurassic Park, and more 3 3/4" figures. Build a kit, get expansion parts, or design and buy individual parts to make your own."

It sure looks awesome to me.



Happy New Year from ISY!
