I'd like to give a big thank you to Kessel Run Review for featuring Customs for the Kid in their newest episode. They have always been a long time friend of ours, and we greatly appreciate their touching feature in celebration of our 10-year anniversary. Working with them behind the scenes to bring this episode to life was an honor and absolute pleasure. We are always going to be loyal viewers of this show, and we can't wait for more episodes to come!

Kessel Run Review - Episode 24
When we found out that Kessel Run Review was coming back from their seven year hiatus, we were so excited that it was hard to stay tight lipped about it. Thankfully, our good friend Luke Sprywalker and his Outer Rim Traders store were also being featured on the show so we were able to talk about our excitement with him before the newest episode was released today. Like many of our friends in the Star Wars toy collecting community, we were huge fans of the show. From solid toy reviews to hilarious creative commercials, Kessel Run Review always impressed. What we really loved about Wookielover1138's toy review show was that she always took the time to feature custom action figure art in every episode's "Custom Cargo". Showcasing custom action figure artists in every episode was unique to all other toy shows at the time, and we became loyal viewers. The return episode does not disappoint. It brought back all the best elements of the show and it felt like they never left. Their new studio looks great, and did you see that awesome Padme nose art on that Republic Gunship at the end of the video, so cool! We can't thank Wookielover1138 enough for letting us be a part of Kessel Run Review's special return episode!

EASTER BASKET TREATS
Just wanted to share some cool video treats that we saw on YouTube that we really enjoyed. The first video is pretty old, but it has always been one of our favorites. The Kessel Run Review was a great show. If only Jesus brought the Kessel Run Review back from the dead with him. Their commercials were hilarious and to be able to watch them back-to-back, all in a row, is pure joy.
The second video is an awesome cardback creation tutorial from DS Customs for all you customizers who want to put your favorite custom on a card!
Have a great holiday everyone!

Kessel Run Review - Season 1 & 2 Commercials featuring Jabba's Dancers created by Darth Daddy
DS Customs Custom Action Figure Cardback Making Tutorial Update
Monday, March 25, 2013
COMING SOON
Luke Sprywalker, Darth Daddy
and Sith_fire30 are in the process
of creating a YouTube based show that will have a format with a
action figure customizing tournament as the focus. The show will be utilizing Google+
Hangout, as well as, content created by the contest participants that they will
upload to Youtube. The show is to be hosted by none other than famous Fangirl Wookielover1138 of the YouTube cult
favorite, Kessel Run Review.
The show will have six (6) hand-picked contestants participating
in our 1st season. We are keeping
participation limited, because of the demand that is required of contestants on
top of providing judges “work in progress” and “finished” pictures of their
work.
Participants will have to be people who really
want to challenge themselves. In our show, participants will be required to
document the production of their work by posting their own content with the
assistance of a YouTube based account.
These videos should be tutorial videos that educate viewers on the
process that the participants used to create their weekly entries. The Youtube video content will later be used
to compliment “Google+ Hangout” content that will be recorded when the
contestants and judges interact in a “video chat” together as a group. In the end, the production team will edit all
the recorded video content together into an episode, including the judging of
the entries which will be conducted by Luke Sprywalker, Darth Daddy and Sith_fire30.
The show will have 5 challenges over
the course of the season and players will compete for points until there is 1 winner named at the end of the last challenge. The contestants will have 10 days (2
weekends) to create their submission after a new theme is introduced.
The idea is to educate fans of the show in regards to the artistic process involved in custom action figure creation and we're hopeful that through this format the talent on hand will get as much exposure as possible. We are currently in the process of building a website for it as it will
be an ongoing project with numerous tournaments taking place.
We just wanted to put a feeler
out there to see who may be interested in participating in an event like this. We're thinking we may not have very many
applicants due to the demand put on the contestants, so that is why we're
keeping the number of participants so low. This number could increase in
future seasons depending on the response we get the first go round. We'd like to get as many seasons out of this
as possible.
All interested parties will have
to provide a Youtube link to a video that introduces them to the judges and the
audience, as well as, three photos of their best work.
What do you think?
How many of you would be interested in
participating in a show like this?
Let us know in our comments section.
