"STAR WARS: THE PHANTOM MENACE" GNK POWER DROID painted by Elias
This was a 3-D printed cast of the Mos Espa GNK Power Droid that we took far too long to get around to painting. While it will be nice to finally put this droid up on a shelf, we actually printed the droid over two years ago when we first got our 3D printer as a gift during our winter holiday.

"THE BAD BATCH" CAPTAIN HOWZER created by Elias
Happy to say that we are starting to make some more animated action figures from The Bad Batch. This particular addition to the blog was one of our commissions which means that it will unfortunately never be a part of our own collection. Nevertheless, he was still a great deal of fun to work on.
He was actually created using a Phase I Clone Trooper body that I re-sculpted to make it look like he wore the Phase II armor. The head was an original sculpt by me that you will see added to the Rebel Kid Creations store for purchase both painted or unpainted. We love the coloring on his armor and the weathering details that we were able to add in.
We are hoping that Hasbro gets around to releasing the main cast in the 3.75" scale soon so we don't have to take on the colossal task of making them all. Thankfully, we have their animated heads and accessories on standby if we have to do them in the near future.

"THE MANDALORIAN" 3.75 KOSKA REEVES created by Elias
We are a bit behind on making custom action figures from The Mandalorian but the decision to wait on making them has been intentional. Action figures aren't cheap and we thought the best strategy would be to see what Hasbro made before making any action figures of our own from the show. Koska Reeves was the exception. While we are somewhat confident Hasbro could still make the character, we had an extra Bo Katan figure on hand and figured we could at least give it a try. Unlike Hasbro's 6" version, we put in the extra effort to remove the armor from her boots that was clearly absent in the show yet was was still present in their Black Series version. The only other modification necessary was removing one of the holsters from her belt. After that, the armor and helmet just needed a new paintjob to make her completely screen accurate.
For her head, we just painted up a 3D resin printed head we purchased from Watto's Scrapyard. Once finished, she posed wonderfully next to our Bo Katan action figure from TVC.
