JASON HARROP Added to "CUSTOMS I WISH I OWNED"




While it is true that we solely collect 3.75" figures, we found the work of Jason Harrop aka Harrop Customs noteworthy enough that we wanted to feature his work nonetheless.  One of our biggest reasons for featuring him is for what he has been giving back to the community.  I was first exposed to his work over at the Star Wars Two Suns 6" Customs Facebook group that he created and put together with friends, Cubescity Customs. The page was created to help out action figure enthusiasts who are interested in customizing by bringing many talented individuals together to inspire and collaborate on their creative action figure ideas.  The group was a really cool place for me to see what Star Wars custom action figure artists are doing in another scale.  From resin cast character kits to informative tutorials that will help you fine tune your skills, Jason has made some awesome contributions to the page and to his portfolio. We highly recommend 6" collectors take notice of this artist so you don't miss out!

"THE LAST JEDI" KYLO REN created by Darth Daddy

This was a quick and easy custom to create if you have an extra Black Series Kylo Ren action figures on hand. All you need to do is reduce the ball on the neck peg to accept the heads of the two different The Last Jedi  Kylo Ren 5poa action figures.  The unmasked head can be found single carded on store pegs now and the helmeted head can be purchased with the Force Link.  Just remember to remove the soft goods below the waist with a scissor to make the figure screen accurate. It takes only a few minutes to add a super-articulated version of the character to your home's display shelves.

"THE LAST JEDI - ELITE PRAETORIAN GUARD" created by Customs for the Kid

Sometimes the best looking customs are the easiest to make.  All this 3.75" action figure needed for completion was a quick head swap to fill out the ranks and diversify the team protecting Supreme Leader Snoke.  We used the head from the Rey 2-pack released on Force Friday with the new Black Series - Praetorian Guard exclusive to Walmart.  If you want to fill in the hole in the head some with glue gun or anything else you see fit, it may help the head rest off the shoulders a bit, but if you pull up on the head it will rest tight enough on the head for posing to not make any modifications. We're sure we won't be the only ones doing this custom.  It's very likely it has been done already by several customizers.  

If you are having difficulty locating the Black Series - Praetorian Guard action figure at your local Walmart, fear not.  These figures aren't due to be released until November.

The action figure can remain in really difficult poses with ease.












We love the Snoke action figure from the BB-8 playset.
