FEMALE MANDO with SPEEDERBOARD




Dad has been working on a series of female Mandalorians for a while now.  This is the first in the series that he has completed so far.  Dad created this figure with a casted torso he bought from customizer Stocos28.  The arms and legs came from a G.I. Joes Scarlett figure and Dad tried to keep the paint scheme of the original figure as well as on the speederboard that he got from a Clone Wars Quinlan Vos action figure.  He finished the figure off with the cape from a Vintage General Grievous figure turned inside out.  The Mando helmet was the one included with the Clone Wars Mace Windu glued together and filled in to make a full head that was fitted with a Dremmel.  I gave Dad a hard time when he was making her, but I'm really glad he stuck to his guns because I really love the way she came out in the end.
