CUSTOMS FOR THE KID appearing at STAR WARS SPECTACULAR in NJ TODAY!

To all our fans in the Woodbridge, NJ area, Customs for the Kid will be attending Star Wars Spectacular in Woodbridge, NJ today. Darth Daddy and Elias will be there with an assortment of customs created by Customs for the Kid, as well as several other customizers featured on the blog's Customizer Spotlight. Information on the "Smuggler's Gambit" Custom Action Figure Contest will be on hand and we'll be having a raffle where the prize will be a Customs for the Kid custom action figure. Stop by, we'd love to meet you.

Other artist's work being featured at our table will be custom action figures found on our Customizer Spotlight page. There will be custom Star Wars action figures created by: Luke Sprywalker, Hangarbay94, Stronox, Peakob1, Lucasclones, Wraithnine, Sillof, Chewie, and many more artist's work on display. It's a chance to see some signature pieces from our collection in person. We realize that not everyone can make it, so we'll do our best to document the event.  We will be playing Dad's Celebration 6: Custom Action Figure Panel Commemorative Video to make sure we expose attendees of the event to as many different artists as we can while we are there. If your work was in that video it will be on display for this day's event. We look forward to seeing you all there.

This is a video featuring the custom artwork of several of the artists that have allowed us to display their work here on our blog.  We would have loved to display the work of countless other artists, but because we did not have the time to ask their permission, their work sadly does not appear in the video. When we first started CFTK, we developed a customizer directory where we provide our audience with a way to see work of the artists we help to promote, as well as video montages of their creations.

The Spectre Added to "Customs I Wish I Owned"






This month for our "Custom I Wish I Owned" feature, we figured we'd introduce you to the army building of talented customizer The Spectre.  Not only does this customizer know how to swell his ranks with style, but he has created the coolest horde of Star Wars space pirates that we have ever seen - complete with ship.

Hailing from northeast New Jersey, The Spectre has deemed himself the President and Founder of the CSOTC (Customize Something Other Than Clones) Society.  It's cool to see what can be accomplished with the old POTF figures because with Hasbro going back to limited articulation in their Star Wars figure line, we need someone like The Spectre to give us hope that customizing won't die out with super articulated figures showing up in only limited amounts.
