"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.

"SMUGGLER'S GAMBIT" CUSTOM ACTION FIGURE CONTEST

CUSTOMIZER SPOTLIGHT #23: INCOM aka MR.BLACK

When Incom isn't working in business services, this customizer hailing from Hengelo, Netherlands is busy making some of the sweetest customs you'll ever come across. His "Weequay Swoop Bike Racer" is one of our all-time favorite Star Wars customs. When we saw that he was offering it for sale on Action Figure Customs Marketplace, Dad bought it right away for my birthday. The bike and figure are just pure eye candy, from the detailed paint work to the super cool Aurebesh water slide decals, we just love it. We always wanted a Star Wars custom action figure from this artist, but we never thought in a million years that our favorite piece of his would one day end up in my collection.
