After seeing the HT announcement this week, I decided to upgrade/revisit my Sideshow Tusken Raiders. I had done the body swaps a few years ago, so I am mainly weathering/distressing the outfits and making a few ammo pouches.
The one in the middle is finished, the other two are works in progress.
The HT versions are accurate to the Mandalorian, but don't feel OT to me. I will probably pass on the HT version, hence my motivation for having a go at these again.
I would like to pick up another one. Hopefully some will sell theirs off in favor of the HT version. These hold up well with some modifications.
Can?t beat the OT versions. I really like the differentiating colors you added on the head sculpt wraps. I?ve got a couple of these and another casted sculpt with ammo pouches... hoping to bash a third together. Already looking great and looking forward to seeing your new revamps. Good to see ya back posting your mods!
Those look so awesome! I started "cloning" my single SSC Tusken into a second figure (cast the face, got some DID bandoliers) and now that I've seen the HT version and won't work for OT, I may restart that project. I recently spotted some fabric that might work for the robes.
These look so good! I love the OT vibes, excellent work. I missed out on the SSC Tuskens so I?m definitely going to have to get the HT versions but you knock it out of the park.
I?m not entirely up to speed on the differences between the Mando Tuskin Raiders, and the OT versions. What are the major differences?
I had the idea the other day that the reason HT didn?t weather the Mando Tuskin Raiders was so that you could buy multiples and weather them uniquely, to make them look like unique individuals.
