Kessel Run Transmissions - Star Wars: The Clone Wars S07E01: "The Bad Batch" Roundtable Review featuring Darth Daddy of "Customs for the Kid"

Darth Daddy had a lot of fun participating in the Roundtable Review last evening.

THE CLONE WARS - SEASON 7 "ANAKIN SKYWALKER" created by Darth Daddy

This action figure was created for a commission. Our good friend Corey Van Dyke of Kessel Run Transmissions asked Dad if he could make him an Anakin Skywalker in time for the release of Season 7. Dad was a little worried about the deadline, but was able to finish the figure in less than a week.

We may have another cool Clone Wars action figure coming later in the season of the show so keep coming back for that reveal.

Look for Dad to appear as a recurring guest on Kessel Run Transmissions Friday evenings as they review each episode of Season 7 of The Clone Wars.

"HURID-327" painted by Darth Daddy

HURID-327 was the groundskeeper of Maz Kanata's castle, which was located on the planet Takodana, and was responsible for carrying her guests' luggage. Shortly before its destruction by the First Order, he was passing through the castle's front gate when he crossing paths with a group consisting of the astromech droid BB-8, the smuggler Han Solo, the scavenger Rey and the former stormtrooper Finn, who were entering the castle.

This figure was created from another 3-D print file by Isotelus. He has articulation at the shoulders, wrists, hips and waist. We have been wanting to add this droid from The Force Awakens to our shelves since we saw the film. It is really exciting to have him as part of the collection now!

"ZIRO THE HUTT" (@DarthZiro Sculpt) paintwork & accesories by Elias

Dad has made two Ziro the Hutt toys so far. One he made for me and another he made for Jimmy Mac, the host of RebelForce Radio. Around the same time Dad made his first version, Instagram user @DarthZiro made a version also. Dad was always a big fan of his sculpt. Early last year during a conversation they were having, he offered to send us a cast of his original sculpt. All we needed to do was fill some holes made from air bubbles that got trapped in his mold during the casting process with some Aves Fixit and then paint him once he dried. Since Dad made Ziro twice already, I asked if I could make him this time around. I finished the few little repairs and all the paint applications at the beginning of the summer last year and even started his accessories, but due to a large commission project, I had to set Ziro aside. While recently waiting for some of the sculpts on my commissions to dry, I used some leftover sculpting material to finish fabricating his headdress and removable jewelry. Thankfully, he is now finally complete! He looks so cool and is such a great addition to the collection!

We highly recommend using the hyperlinks to check out the work of the other two artists in this post. They do not disappoint!
