Well Celebration VI is right around the corner and it is less than one week away until the first ever Star Wars Action Figure Customizing Panel.  If you haven't decided if you will be attending or not, maybe this announcement will convince you to get yourself there.  It has been announced that all of the panel members will be giving away some of their work to audience members when it concludes.  Not only will you get to see a presentation on the history of the art form, but if you are lucky you may even walk away with an action figure created by the talented artists: Sith_fire30, Luke Sprywalker, Sillof or Chewie of Yakface.com. Don't miss out on this milestone in Star Wars history.  Below are pictures of just some of the prizes  created by Star Wars artists Sith_fire30 and Chewie that lucky winners could receive at the conclusion of the panel.  Sith_fire30 is even creating custom packaging for the prize that he is donating.  Don't miss out!

Star Wars Celebration VI: Diorama Workshop & Customizing Panel

Get ready folks!  There's a reason why everybody that goes to Celebration makes an early stop and then frequent visits throughout their weekend experience to this one event that has now become the most popular event year after year.  The room for the Diorama Workshop is the favorite of children that attend Celebration because they get the experience of building their own diorama, and then being able to take their creations home at no cost, thanks to generous donations.  The children all help each other to construct a 1:18 scale Tatooine with help from the masters like Frank D'iorio.  

Hopefully, next Celebration there will be a Custom Action Figure Workshop everyone can attend.  Cross your fingers and show your support for the 1st ever Custom Action Figure Panel at this years Panel Discussion on Sunday at the Collecting Stage from 11:15am - 12:00pm.  Star Wars customizers Sillof, Sith_fire30 and Luke Sprywalker will be presenting to what we're expecting to be the panel talked about the most after Celebration VI is over.  Don't be surprised if you also see these guys over at the Diorama Workshop when you're there.  I can confirm that there will be sightings because these three artists are all diorama builders of epic proportions as well.  Definitely the place to be so fit it into your schedule.

Luke Sprywalker's Jabba Project




Luke Sprywalker is gearing up for Celebration IV and his Jabba Project has been pure eye candy.  This is one that needs to be seen in all it's glory.  I think everyone would want these figures.  They're all just so amazing.  His repaint on Bubo is what really has us floored here at home.  We love the way he painted the eyes.  If you will be attending Celebration IV, be sure to see him speak at the Custom Action Figure Panel along with Sith_fire30 and Sillof.

CAFN Episode 27- CAFN Roundtable - Parts Casting Masters



STAR WARS PODCASTS


Custom Action Figure News' first run at the roundtable hit a few glitches, and unfortunately, never saw the light of day. We have a feeling it was really awesome, but since both of their recorders crapped out, the world will never know.  Originally Remco of Incom's Customs and Doc Outlands participated on the roundtable, but they weren't available to come back for the redo. Good news is CAFN's new recorder seems to be awesome and they are back in business. Thankfully, Sith_fire30 and Clonehead were still available for the second attempt. If they could not have come on there would have no roundtable.  We here at CFTK were super happy to listen to this particular episode because it focused on the latest aspect of action figure customizing that we are looking to add to our repertoire.

Enjoy!
