Stocos28 ADDED TO "CUSTOMS I WISH I OWNED" + "CUSTOMIZER SPOTLIGHT #4" UPDATE

Our latest customizer, Stocos28, is from New Jersey and he specializes in custom 3 3/4" figures for the adult collector. He offers great customs that can be played with. He's huge fan of Star Wars, G.I. Joe and all things 80's. Stocos28 has been an ebay member since July of 2005 offering custom action figures to the ebay community. With a 100% positive feedback score from over 1,350 ebay buyers, we think it's safe to say he puts out exemplary work. We bought a human Jedi named Kentar Framic from Stocos28 a while back that we featured in our Customizer Spotlight and recently added a second custom action figure created by Stocos28 to my collection, Jedi Master Ey' Dee. Stocos28 is humble and he will tell you that he's no Sith_Fire30, but in our opinion he's working real hard at getting there and the results are evident. This talented customizer even offers resin cast sculpts from the customs he makes over at Slayer Design Studios. If you ask us Stocos28 is a customizer to watch. You can start watching by taking a look of Dad's video featuring this super talented artist's work.

THE WANDERING JEDI

Jedi Master Chi was a true master of Force Speed when it came to hand to hand combat and was an instructor at the Jedi Temple. Master Chi later became a Rogue Jedi who abandoned the Order at the beginning of the Clone Wars. He refused to adopt the role of a general. As he handed in his lightsaber and walked out the Temple doors, he vowed to go wherever the Force led him and never looked back.



THE WANDERING JEDI

Master Chi was created from a Vintage Darth Sidious and the head of an Indiana Jones Mola Ram action figure. The hair is Dad's first ever experiment using Apoxie Sculpt.
