    Hot Toys Star Wars Stormtrooper

    I personally have concerns with Disney and the new regime, but we'll see what Episode 7 brings. If it's a flop, I know more than a few Star Wars fans that will be ready to bury Disney. Trying to stay on topic, I ordered a HT Stormtrooper and looking forward to its arrival. When he comes, I'll...

    Hot Toys Star Wars Stormtrooper

    Obviously Stormtroopers are different heights in the movie. It is what it is from the casting calls. In some of the early merchandise, and I'm thinking of those poster magazines from the late 70's, it detailed a backstory for stromtroopers which mentioned they were clones. Not sure if the...

    Hot Toys Star Wars Stormtrooper

    The reference to truth is kind of humorous when all of this is fiction anyway. I understand what you're saying though. We MUST believe what the company with the license tells us, and please be sure to pay them at the door :lol

    Can anyone recommend a very good doll clothing maker? (details inside)

    I already ordered some of those reproduction boxes. They are fantastic! The seller is not very popular though on the Rebelscum forums. I found someone that is in the process of making the outfits. We'll see how they turn out. I've exchanged emails with Gus about these dolls in the past...

    Sideshow Hoth Han Solo (Echo Base)

    I remember the old Bespin jacket. The sleeves seemed horrendously long and out of proportion. The new jacket looks to be a better fit, but then again, I'm judging based on pictures I've seen. If that zipper could come off, that would likely be the jacket of choice.

    Sideshow Hoth Han Solo (Echo Base)

    Thanks guyver1. The last picture is my favorite! Based on these results, I may be looking to buy back my Bespin Han outfit from back in the day. I'm thinking a variation of the HT Bespin Luke standing next to Bespin Han may be what my shelf ends up getting :yess:

    Sideshow Hoth Han Solo (Echo Base)

    Has anyone seen any pics yet of Han Solo dressed in his regular Bespin Outfit? It has to be an improvement over Sideshow's first attempt.

    Can anyone recommend a very good doll clothing maker? (details inside)

    VintijDroidGutzz, you are exactly correct. I want the look of the 1979/80's dolls. I can provide multiple prototype photos. I'm looking for someone that can source the fabrics and reproduce the outfits through some trial and error. I have absolutely no skills when it comes to making doll...

    Can anyone recommend a very good doll clothing maker? (details inside)

    I tried this a few years ago, but the person that was helping me disappeared. I'm looking for someone that can reproduce high quality reproductions of the outfits you see below: Accessories not needed. I'm only looking for the jumpsuit for Luke and the dark blue coat/scarf/gloves for Han...

    Tamashii Soul of Chogokin C-3PO & R2-D2

    I think Sideshow is setting themselves up for failure if they release a 1/6 scale Threepio. How can you improve on perfection? Maybe they think they'll get a sufficient amount of orders at a lower price point. I definitely was not impressed with their premium format Threepio. It will be a...

    Tamashii Soul of Chogokin C-3PO & R2-D2

    Thanks for the pics Solo_Bones! Based on the photos you posted, I'm thinking the action alarm clock version looks better. Do you prefer that one over the Taito or Hasbro versions?

    Tamashii Soul of Chogokin C-3PO & R2-D2

    I believe I read where the action alarm clock uses the same sculpt as the Hasbro R2, only the legs are longer... Can anyone verify this? The thing that bugs me about the action alarm clock version is the noticeable slits in the front where the clock panel is revealed. Anyone thought about...

    Tamashii Soul of Chogokin C-3PO & R2-D2

    Ok, my hope of getting a comparable R2 to go with the perfect model c-3po within the next 2 to 3 years is fading. I'm now seeking the next best alternative. I'm leaning toward the Taito clock version, but it sounds like some are partial to the action alarm clock version. Does anyone have new...

    Any vintage customizers out there?

    Here is a pic of the nearly complete Lando. I asked Vivisect to do an additional shirt in a color that I thought was a little closer to the original. He's also making some minor adjustments to the cape. Hopefully he'll be back to 100% soon :pray:

    :lol:rotfl I just reviewed Vivisect's pictures and they look fantastic! I can't wait to receive the costume and put them on Lando!!

    Any vintage customizers out there?

    Here's a few new photos of the head repainted. The flesh tone is lighter than the original photos. Vivisect is also hard at work on the costume, and it's nearing completion!! :yess:

    Any vintage customizers out there?

    Anyone out there interested in some side work to paint a few of the extra Lando heads? I'm looking for a professional looking paint job, that's similar to the photos I posted above, which btw was done with cell vinyl paint used for cartoon cells. Also, I'm looking for someone that can...

    Any vintage customizers out there?

    Here are the latest photos. I'm now ready to begin the clothing.

    Any vintage customizers out there?

    The Weequay outfits look fantastic! What other outfits have you done? The vintage figures would require something a little more eloqent, and not as rugged :D

    Any vintage customizers out there?

    I agree... the Sideshow cape would be too much. Unfortunately, Hasbro doesn't offer much more in this area. The Lando cape is like shimmering gold on the inside.
