"SPIDER MAUL" created by Darth Daddy

This action figure was laying about the house, unfinished for far too long. We are so thankful for our YouTube show with Peak-OB1 Custom Creations called "Customizing The Clone Wars" because it pushes us to complete unfinished projects that we desperately wanted to get done. This was one of those very projects. In our next episodic installment of "Customizing The Clone Wars", I will provide a more detailed explanation of how I produced this action figure in 3.75" scale.

Hidden beneath all the scraps of ProCreate, Green Stuff, and salvaged plastic scraps is part of a B'Omarr Monk action figure that we affixed below a fully-sculpted torso and a one-of-a-kind head that were both handcrafted here at home by Darth Daddy. 

The sculpt was strategically attached to a hidden articulated limb that was surrounded by plastic strips that were securely held in place with hockey tape cuttings to mimic Maul's bandages. 

The spider body was wrapped in wire, littered with unlimited numbers of plastic cuttings and assorted sculpted pieces that were held in place with model cement, and enthusiastically weathered with cinnamon to age up all of the chaotic paint work that was applied. Props to Elias for painting on Maul's tattoos.

"MAUL MANDOS" created by Darth Daddy

This latest post is showing how a quick repaint of some Clone Wars Death Watch Mandalorian Warriors that came with the Mandalorian Speeder from Hasbro's mini-rig line can offer up some pretty cool looking Maul Mandos.  The project is an easy way to add a few Maul Mandos to your Clone Wars collection.  The articulation on these figures is just phenomenal...especially, at the ball jointed wrists and hips!  

These figures also really complement our Clone Wars Darth Maul and the Mandalorian Super Commando custom action figures created by Peakob1 Custom Creations.

Dad threw these two action figures together in seconds after watching the season finale of Clone Wars Season 4. He used the head from an extra Vintage Darth Maul we had on the body of the Infinities Maul from the exclusive comic pack. No modification was needed on the head and it can help you all recreate the final battle scene until a proper release is issued later this year. Since the body was the only one we had, Dad stopped short of doing anything else to the figure.

Dad also cut the horn on the head of an extra Savage Opress that we had so he looked like he did in the latest story arc. Pretty much a no brainer.

If you were wondering if it were possible to do a head swap the answer is yes. It's a little snug, but with a minimal amount of Force, it fits. No tooling needed.

Dad used the ball jointed hips and upper legs of a Vintage Kit Fisto to articulate the Savage Opress further and make him so he can now do a full split. A tip he received from Stronox.

Dad cut off the horn with a razor blade.

Later on Dad is going to give him articulated ankles too.

Dad's quick modifications were featured on the front page of Imperial Shipyards.
