"JABBA's PALACE - DROID TORTURE RACK" painted by Elias
Not
every droid's owner is a nice one, so you better do your job well. If
you have the wrong kind of master, you may find yourself disintegrated
on a cruel device like the droid torture rack!

Elias only painted the torture rack and not the droid.

We saw the torture rack kit sold by Hole In the Ground Productions on
Facebook a few months ago and grabbed a set afraid they'd sell out
fast. This
kit comes in four unpainted pieces. A top and bottom in cast resin and
two aluminum "pistons" that glue into place. When assembled, it measures
approximately 6" wide by 6" tall. This diorama piece was not made to
fit a specific action figure, so you will have to decide how best to
display it. You may have to modify a figure for best results.
Elias just finished painting his torture rack and it really
spiced up his Jabba's Palace display. Grab yours while you can!

CUSTOMIZER SPOTLIGHT #38: MEATHEAD TOYS
So I guess this isn't exactly an action figure. It's a statue. He stands about 2.5" tall and is solid hand cast resin. It was love at first sight and we had to get him. He'd be great in a Star Wars diorama.
MEATHEAD TOYS struck gold with this concept. His execution is exceptional too! We found his work surfing the net and we recommend checking MEATHEAD TOYS out. He has a lot of fun pieces that you won't see anywhere else.
He has a lot of customs for sale on his website, as well as this enlightened droid pictured below. We really love his Droids cartoon inspired astromechs with their long skinny limbs. We'll leave his Wookiee figures as a surprise for when you give his page a look. Love our purchase on this one. This piece is just beautiful!

Make Your Own Admiral Ackbar's Command Chair, Tatooine Hut & Endor Imperial Bunker (4" scale)
We're huge fans of TheBudgetJedi's tutorials and his latest video is another awesome installment that teaches us all how to enhance our Star Wars displays on the cheap!
Here's are two bonus videos that we missed when they came out, but they are equally cool.
I think we're going to try this one.
