DROIDWORLD ADDED TO "CUSTOMS I WISH I OWNED"



Christopher aka Droidworld, has been making custom figures and dioramas since 1978, when he used a marker to change R2-D2 into another robot and put him in a bookshelf diorama with packing material walls and a cut out door. He has improved since then, though still uses found objects and dollar store materials to manipulate and expand on what Hasbro/Kenner has to offer us. (Or has not offered us!) Droids, being his first love, have been the focus of his customs, but as he started seeking other customizers on the internet, through Curto's Alliance, NiubNiub's Universe and Forgotten Force, he has expanded to humans and aliens of the Star Wars universe as well. Now showcasing his work on Rebelscum and Imperial Shipyards, he is quite happy pass on any information that has helped him along the way.

Another Quick Custom

With summer here, Dad has given customizing a back seat, but he still took a few minutes to get a quick custom together for the blog this week. He made this Jedi, with the body of a Vintage Obi Wan Kenobi, a Wolverine head, and the cloak of the new Vintage Nikto Jedi on pegs now.

Dad hollowed out the head a bit with a Dremmel to give the head a snug fit.

Colins Customs ADDED TO "CUSTOMS I WISH I OWNED"

Colins Customs self portrait custom action figure.


Our latest customizer, Colins Customs, is from Bedwas, Wales. We were introduced to his customs from his entries in the Create a Wookielover1138 Contest and when we saw his Facebook page we were really impressed with the customs we found. He tackled a lot of customs we didn't see anywhere else and not only does he create a lot of modern looking Star Wars custom action figures, but he also creates a lot of great custom Vintage action figures too. After looking at his great body of work we came to the conclusion that our Customs I Wish I Owned page wouldn't be complete without the addition of customizer Colins Customs.
