Happy Star Wars Day! I celebrated by watching a bunch of SW related shows and specials. Haha.
Love the Marauder Mando! Paint job is AWESOME and love the idea to attach the armor pouches to the thighs! Gives those legs a totally different look. The flame effect and weathered beskar armor is amazing as well. You are really killing it with the paint jobs on these parts, giving them totally different looks so everything is so fresh feeling. Thank you for the compliments man! I always have a ton of fan recreating SW characters more so the various Mando versions out there by using MTF figures & accessories. I find the Hasbro 3.75 figures a bit on a the smaller size and since I like these characters to be more imposing Marauders parts are a great solution IMO. Yeah armor pouches attached to the thighs is becoming my thing now! Thanks for always stopping by and commenting! Thank you SB, I appreciate it! The sky is the limit with these MTF parts and we are talking expanding to new cosmic worlds once those heads arrive. I cannot wait!! Quote:

Happy belated Star Wars day! I watched a couple of shows as well and it does help that the whole family is also a fan so I had a sizeable company in that lol

Yeah armor pouches attached to the thighs is becoming my thing now! Thanks for always stopping by and commenting! Always felt the same about the articulated Star Wars guys. The Mando line is really top notch but all of the articulated stuff is small, guess it’s so they are all compatible with the older vehicles, which is nice even if I mainly use potf2 or vintage for my OT vehicles. I had the Mando armorer next to Marauder WW2 guys just on my desk for a bit and it was always funny how much they towered over her. Haha, always funny to see how we all naturally have our own “things” or tendencies when it comes to our customs. Now I’m definitely gonna be looking for the thigh armor more on your stuff.

Matt posted a Deep Six custom not too long ago which I've been meaning to replicate simply because it looks so cool. A couple of tweaks but it's essentially the same recipe.

A Mandalorian duo I've had in the works for a while now. I posted the MTF one a while back so this is an updated version of it after adding a robotic arm from a BAT I had laying around and a couple of touches with a a marker.

And of course Daniel Craig as 007 although Sean Connery was probably the best Bond ever IMO so I plan on updating this one soon.

Favorite Bond behind only Connery. Great job!

Paokole, holy sheat, that Daniel Craig 007 is friggin’ perfect! Love what you did, now u gotta do Ms Moneypenny and M an Q :P superb work! Deep Six love it, love your tweaks ;) been trying to get that navy camo type body myself but its before I started collecting Marauder figures and they don’t sell that camo anymore sadly, not for the male body anyways, great work!
Also, your Mandalorian duo, top-notch, love that show! |

Always love seeing Deep Six with that look. You nailed it with Matt’s inspiration and your tweaks. Really cool gear layout and poses for him. Looks badass in front of that backdrop.
The Mando duo look great! The MandoBAT is a fantastic idea. Haha. Empire wouldn’t have wiped them out if they had a few of those guys. Really like the cape & claw combo as well. That is a perfect Bond! Not much to say there, great head sculpt and an excellent paint job. If I end up with that head, one I’ll be copying fairly closely.
