    Thanks for the kind words, and props to Steve for his excellent paint work on my Nysad figure! I'm sorry to see that the accessory broke - I print those in semi-flexible resin so they are bendy enough to have a little give but not so bendy as to curve/warp when displayed. It's a fine line to walk in maintaining durability! :) I know Steve told you in the notes he sent, but once a resin figure is painted, sometimes the joints can stick - you need to gently wiggle them loose if you want to pose them so that you can take advantage of the 5POA and also not risk breakage. Note to any potential customers: I'm always happy to provide replacement parts if something breaks while you're customizing/painting!

    Awesome scores. That Han with the interchangeable head is really cool. Good to see K-3PO. I missed out on the Stan Solo version. Hopefully he does another run with R-3PO also. I think I seen K-3PO in the latest Mandi episode. Must have had a good repair job because he was badly damaged when Echo base was attacked.

    I also like how even though vintage figures are 'cut up' to make these (probably beaters) - all the parts generally get used throughout the various customs, that's actually the tricky thing when making these - Planning out how all the parts can be recycled into new figures. I'd glue the head on to that Nikto if I had it. Maybe pick up a vintage vibro-weapon or repro to replace the broken one?

    • @GQJedi
      @GQJedi  Рік тому +2

      You're so right! Knowing what you can do with what you have is half the battle. The head was never glued on to begin with but I may do it. Again, I'm not playing with any of these. LOL. Only displaying them.

      It was hard to tell in the video but it looked like the painter used some plumbers tape or something else to thicken the head peg to make it fit - that's a pretty common tactic amongst customizers. Most Funky Maclunkey figures come with a neck peg that is a snug fit but is removable/replaceable if it breaks!

    These figures look so cool and so nice.
    They seem pretty easy to do (except the paint deco)
    The sad part is that I am to afraid to do this my own. Even if I have some beaters, I still want them in their original beat up stage, at the same time as I want to do my own customs... 😄
    The colsest I have ever come to do my own is to swap the head of a Luke X-wing with a broken Han Solo. I didnt even dare to Dremel out the remains of the luke head, even thou I snapped his neck peg, so that he was fully decapitated... Thus, no helmet for Han X-Wing.
    I have also managed to replace a Biker scout head/helmet with Mandarins head, and then use the poorly beaten Mandarin body to put a Lando head on, in an attempt to make a (sort of) custom Last 17 Lando 😄
    The heads, except for Mandarin, came from figures that had been used for a BB gun target practice...
    I know his name aint Mandarin, but its close enough, and my Swedish spell check auto correct it to be Mandarin, so it was easier to just let it be that way 😄
