THE YOUNGLING KICK CONTINUES

So my mom has been expressing her concern to my Dad about the violence in Star Wars and all the dark themes that exist in the stories. She expressed concern about how it could affect my development and my overall outlook on life. To meet mom halfway, Dad went on a huge kick where he created a bunch of custom Jedi younglings and then bought me the new Starspeeder 1000 and the Star Tours crew, to transport my younglings throughout the Star Wars universe and make our play more kid friendly and less about the battles some people usually associate with the Wars.

Dad sculpted new legs onto his Gran Jedi youngling, and added Advozse and Neomodian Jedi younglings to my collection over the weekend as well.

This Quermian Jedi youngling was purchased on ebay a few years ago, but arrived in the mail completely damaged. When we opened the bubble mailer, the head was cracked off. Dad had to completely resculpt a new neck, and then had to repaint the figure due to the repairs he had made. In the end the figure looked different than when we had bought it, but Dad his best to stick to the original concept that the customizer had used.

Dad used the new Vintage Doltay Dofine head and hands with the Vintage Anakin Skywalker body to create this youngling and then repainted them to match the paint he applied to the neck.

Dad replaced the ball joint of the neck to attach the Vintage Bom Vimdim head to the Vintage Anakin Skywalker body to create this youngling.

I sure do have a lot of younglings now!

GRAN JEDI YOUNGLING - NOW UPDATED!!

Dad surprised me when I came home and found this really cool Gran Jedi Youngling waiting for me. Originally it was just another No Paint Kit Bash (NPKB) that he created with the head, hands and feet of the new Discover the Force Mawhonic and the body of a Vintage Anakin Skywalker from the Phantom Menace wave. It was a really quick and easy custom action figure to make. Some customizers boil the figures for about 5 minutes, while others will use a blowdryer to heat up the places they want to pop apart. We're boilers at our house. I have even heard someone on Youtube say that they microwave their figures to heat them up and take them apart. If anyone knows how long a customizer should microwave their figure please leave the information in our comments section. Kids use a parent's supervision before trying this at home.

After posting this custom in various Star Wars forums, customizer Luke Sprywalker asked Dad to sculpt over the boots of the Vintage Anakin Skywalker figure and create Gran legs. Dad went to work and the final result is below.

Originally Dad skipped sculpting new legs until customizer Luke Sprywalker suggested sculpting them on. Dad agreed that it would look better and sculpted on the legs the weekend after he posted the figure the first time.
