kitbash as i understand it is simply putting a new joe together from existing parts. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Kitbash is an old plastic modelers term for creating something from parts from several different model kits, I guess that transfers well for using parts from different figures!

If I may add my thoughts...
What they said.
I understand it as mixing parts as is = kitbashing.
Doing the same but painting the parts = Customizing or is it all customizing and kitbashing is required to get the proper parts to make the custom you like.

basically take every joe you have apart, every piece...throw those into a huge plastic bin and then start randomly sellecting parts to piece together a new figure outta of all of your parts...thus "kitbashed"..its more fun then legos...the possibilities are endless

I think Kitbashing is to make a "new" custom figure by not using paint. Where as a custom figure you would apply paint to the figure.
