3.75" "BODHI ROOK" created by Customs for the Kid

This action figure wasn't that difficult to cobble together. It will take you three different action figures for you to create your own version. The entire body is made from the Imperial Scanning Crew action figure. The belt was scaled back and sculpted over with ProCreate to give the jumpsuit continuity in form. The only parts of the body that are not from the Imperial Scanning Crew are the lower legs that come from an Indiana Jones Mutt Williams action figure.  The head and accessories are from the "Rogue One" Collection Bodhi Rook action figure. Once the assembly and sculpt were completed, Dad painted the body and accessories and I painted the head to complete the figure.

A big thanks to Star Wars customizer DarthTaterTots for the action figure recipe!

Bodhi Rook was a human male from Jedha who served as a cargo pilot for the Galactic Empire prior to the Galactic Civil War. After defecting to the Alliance to Restore the Republic, he fought alongside a group of rebels during the Battle of Scarif. Thanks in part to Bodhi's efforts and sacrifice, Jyn was able to use the Imperial security complex's satellite to transmit the Death Star plans offworld. Despite Grand Moff Tarkin's efforts to destroy the Scarif base, the rebels managed to transmit the plans to the rebel flagship Profundity. Princess Leia Organa then fled with the plans aboard the rebel corvette Tantive IV, setting the stage for the events leading up to the Battle of Yavin.[4]

ELIAS OF "CUSTOMS FOR THE KID" WINS "CUSTOM ACTION FIGURE ARTIST OF THE YEAR" @ TOY NEWS INTERNATIONAL's 2018 TOY AWARDS

 

"I have to say, the competition was fierce, and the battle was intense, but thanks to all of you, I was able to walk away with a different view of myself than I had before the competition.  I have been customizing for over eight years now, since I was just a little boy, and this unexpected recognition is a true testament to all the effort I put in to become the artist that I am today. When I first was nominated for the award, I thought to myself how could I possibly win against all these talented artists?  Now, having won, I realized I had everything I needed.  If it hadn't been for the extremely talented artists who have passed down their knowledge, encouragement, and support over the course of my training, I wouldn't be where I am today.  Because I was one of the youngest artists in the community, I always wanted to be just as good as the ones I considered "The Masters".  While everybody knows no one's journey is ever complete, I am certainly more confident in my skills now because of all your support.  I have read all of your comments across social media boards and forums, and I found them all very moving.  Especially, those of you who took the time to vote."  - Elias
