For those of you that don't know; we are Wicket Toy & Collectible Photography, a couple from Los Angeles California that blog, photograph, promote, and review toys and collectibles. We started our blog nearly 2 years ago now and have been going ever since. We share our love for toys with people all over the world, and love what we do.

Now on to the post...
Although we've both been collecting for years, we're relatively new to customs. Up until about a year ago we didn't even know there was such a thing. But after come across many custom projects all over the web, we knew we wanted to try our own.
So far, I'm(Jon) the only one that has successfully done a few simple customs. Nothing big, just simple Hot Toys heads and a suited figure. My girlfriend(Drea) will be begin on a Star Wars custom soon. You can look at my last two customs on the second post.
So now after a year of practice, we're moving on to create a custom from the ground up. Nothing too fancy, but definitely something that will bring the :thud:. lol

Until we have completed the upcoming custom, we will tease you all with a hint of what's to come. We'll keep this thread updated as we work along. We look forward to all of your feedback, but please, constructive criticism only. :1-1:

 
Right on. Curious to see what you come up with. Good luck!
 
We've ran into a few problems which has backed up the release of this figure. As soon as we have those taken care of we'll be posting the pictures. Thanks everybody for your words of encouragement.
 
We've just realized its been awhile since we've updated this.
The figure for the most part is done, although the coat still needs to be fitted and there are still some accessories to be made. Does anybody want to see what we have so far?
 
You got it man, I will have them up later today. I just want to warn everybody though...the pictures wont be of our usual quality, I dont have my SLR right now so it will just have to be point-and-shoot pics for now.
 
Im sorry I havent uploaded any pics yet. I just started a new job at Mattel, so Ive been tired as hell when I get home. Ill try an get some up tomorrow. Goodnight all. :wave
