AURRA SING "ASSASSIN" EPISODE OUTFIT

I asked Dad to make me an Aurra Sing in the outfit that she wore in the "Assassin" episode from Season 3 of Clone Wars. The action figure is only a simple repaint that anyone could do with the Clone Wars Aurra Sing action figure found in stores now. He also trimmed down the antenna on the figure to make it look closer to what it would really look like.

VON REINHARDT: REBEL BOMBAY's TWIN BROTHER

Von Reinhardt of I [HEART] STAR WARS recently posted a custom action figure of Rebel Bombay's Twin Brother. Dad created Rebel Bombay back in January and thought it was cool when Von Reinhardt posted one of his own on Wednesday. His figure came out great and we wanted to let you all have a peak at this post too.

Patrolian Jedi

Dad said this custom action figure was the hardest custom he ever made and took him over 16 hours to make. To make the Patrolian Jedi, Dad used a Robonino action figure from the Clone Wars line. The hard part wasn't the paint application on this one, but instead was getting rid of Robonino's eye patch and making an eye that would be symmetrical to the existing one. Dad recently bought some wood carving tools and well he drew blood twice while working to get it just right. It was a labor of love, but in the end, he couldn't be happier with the results. The Jedi robe was from an Even Piell action figure.
