"CUSTOMIZER SPOTLIGHT" UPDATE - "Fennec Shand" created by Stocos28

Stocos28 once again graces our shelves with this wonderful custom 3.75” Fennec Shand action figure from The Mandalorian!  The figure sports a stunning likeness to Ming Na Wen thanks to the talents of Watto’s Scrapyard, and Stocos28’s beautiful paint job.  The figure features soft goods, an alternative head with her helmet, as well as full range of articulation.  Her screen accurate sniper rifle was provided by Aude’s Workshop.

All in all, this is a great figure.  Her sculpt is on point, and her paint is beautiful.  Because she is super articulated, she has all the range of motion you would want in a bounty hunter action figure.  The option to change between her helmet and her head is another feature to appreciate.  Stocos28’s exemplary work never fails to impress us here at Customs for the Kid.  

Be sure to visit his eBay store at http://myworld.ebay.com/stocos28/ to keep up with his latest creations!

"Customs for the Kid" Display at "Star Wars Spectacular"

On Sunday, April 7, 2013, Customs for the Kid brought their traveling museum of Star Wars custom action figures to the Star Wars Spectacular event in Woodbridge, NJ. Attendees were treated to an exhibition of Star Wars custom action figures created by talented customizing artists such as: Stronox, Sillof, Luke Sprywalker, Chewie, Wraithnine, Hangarbay94, Peakob1, SithHappens, Omar Rivera, Incom aka Mr. Black's Customs, Lucasclones, Stocos28, JACKOFTRADZE, Darth Daddy, Elias, and more.  Also on display were video tutorials that are featured on our blog as well as the entertaining Youtube cult classic show Kessel Run Review.

The display table stayed pretty packed throughout the day and brought attention to the blog's online museum of Star Wars custom action figures and the featured artists. We were really impressed with the crowd turnout, and loved the reaction of all the attendees to what we had on display. It was even cooler when our table recieved visits from Star Wars customizers darthstreams and Dave Castle aka StarWarsGeek.   StarWarsGeek even brought us a bag of his casted heads that he sells from his online store.  Hopefully we will get to take the show on the road again sometime soon.






Everything set up at our table.


Dad had his "Customs I Wish I Owned" videos playing throughout the day.


All the figures were on display with white tags displaying the names of the artists who created each figure.


Getting everything together the night before.


Setting up the display cases at home while we create all the display tags on the printer.  The "Mando" was created by Luke Sprywalker, the "Star Wars - 1942: Chuck Backer" was created by Sillof, and the "Nar Shaddaa Interceptor Patrol Vehicle" was created by Hangarbay94.  We later added Incom's "Weeguay Speeder Bike" to the display case.  We almost didn't bring it because Dad was afraid it would get damaged in transit.  I was right and it made it there and back just fine.

Stocos28 ADDED TO "CUSTOMS I WISH I OWNED" + "CUSTOMIZER SPOTLIGHT #4" UPDATE

Our latest customizer, Stocos28, is from New Jersey and he specializes in custom 3 3/4" figures for the adult collector. He offers great customs that can be played with. He's huge fan of Star Wars, G.I. Joe and all things 80's. Stocos28 has been an ebay member since July of 2005 offering custom action figures to the ebay community. With a 100% positive feedback score from over 1,350 ebay buyers, we think it's safe to say he puts out exemplary work. We bought a human Jedi named Kentar Framic from Stocos28 a while back that we featured in our Customizer Spotlight and recently added a second custom action figure created by Stocos28 to my collection, Jedi Master Ey' Dee. Stocos28 is humble and he will tell you that he's no Sith_Fire30, but in our opinion he's working real hard at getting there and the results are evident. This talented customizer even offers resin cast sculpts from the customs he makes over at Slayer Design Studios. If you ask us Stocos28 is a customizer to watch. You can start watching by taking a look of Dad's video featuring this super talented artist's work.
