CUSTOMIZER SPOTLIGHT UPDATE: LUCASCLONES

Like many collectors of The Clone Wars action figure line, we really wished Hasbro would have released Trandoshan hunting pods in their mini-rig line.  A few years ago, Star Wars customizer Lucasclones made a custom version of the vehicle, and it's the only one I've ever seen made.  If any start-up Star Wars 3-D printer artists want a cool vehicle to sell this would be one of them that I would like to see offered.  If Hasbro had made this I would have bought several.

A few weeks ago, Lucasclones was advertising the two Trandoshan hunters pictured below for purchase on his Instagram account.  Dad shot him a text message and asked him if he still had the Trandoshan hunting pod that he had made.  We loved this custom 3 3/4" scale vehicle since the first time we saw it pictured in the Star Wars customizing forums on the web.  Not only did Lucasclones still have the hunting pod in his possession he was willing to part with it.  He even threw in the two advertised Trandoshan Hunters!

The roll bar broke in shipping, but Dad was able to repair everything with a little bit of krazy glue.  I'm really happy the add this piece to my collection.  Especially since it was one of Hasbro's biggest missed opportunities.

CUSTOM ACTION FIGURE NEWS #70: Peakob1 Custom Creations

Custom Action Figures News just debuted their new video format in their latest interview with customizer Chad Peak aka Peakob1 of Peakob1 Custom Creations.  Definitely take the time to watch Lucasclones and Tamer talk about Peakob1's artwork, and you may even learn a new customizing technique or two. Chad Peak has been a close friend of Customs for the Kid for many years.  We have over 34 Star Wars custom action figures of his in our collection, many of which were featured in this episode.  We wouldn't be surprised if that number continued to grow.  It's nice to hear how Peakob1 built all these masterpieces and get to see all his figures up on screen as they are being discussed.  We love the new format guys and we're sure you will to.
