The latest Yakfinities Customizing Challenge has just concluded, and we’ve got over 40 great entries in the roundup report for your viewing pleasure! Head on over to the forums to check out all the entries, and see who is walking away with some free Star Wars figures as prizes.
For those that helped with the Galactic Merchants kickstarter campaign, we think you will find their latest previews most impressive… check them out in the forums and on their Facebook page!
The current Yakfinities Customizing Challenge has seen some great entries over the past week – and there’s still some time left to get a custom entry submitted before the deadline on Sunday, September 30th.
This one’s easy too – just make and submit a custom of something that appeared in ANY Star Wars Dark Horse comic, and your submission has been entered! Or, if you’d rather just kick back and check out the latest entries, just hop on over to the forums!
The latest installment in The Enloe Trials Photonovel Series is here… in this new adventure, Rykrof Enloe and his comrades face death at every turn as they seek an ancient Sith artifact on Dathomir.
It’s a race against time and countless dangers in Chapter IV – Shadow of Death – check it out after the jump!
We are way overdue for another spotlight showing off the fantastic customizing skills of our forum members, so let’s get to it!
First up, Mousedroid-Hoojib continues to show the capabilities of soft goods customizing with a new version of Padme, which can be seen here.
Forum member wraith_nineyak also joins in the mix, with a new animated custom of Sergeant Krayt from the Clone Wars.
Peakob1 also creates a new Clone Wars custom – but one with a twist by making a realistic custom figure of Rush Clovis.
Last but not least, you have to check out Evilivo’s custom pre-cyborg General Grievous, which is a huge improvement over the Hasbro version… it even has real hair!
Star Wars Celebration VII will be in Anaheim in 2015, and some of our forum customizers have their eyes set on displaying a massive diorama there for all to see. We worked to do this before in 2007 for Celebration IV so there is precedent, but these projects take a lot of coordination and effort. The payoff is great though to see it all come together.
Do you have what it takes to join in? We’re still in the very early stages of this project, and encourage all customizers to check it out and see if you’d like to take part in this after the jump! We also encourage for all diorama builders out there to offer their suggestions to help make this project a success.
The next installment in The Enloe Trials photonovel series is almost here, and we’ve got some brand new previews to share!
Head on over to the forums for a closer look, and to share your thoughts!
Forum member and diorama master Empire has done it again, creating some fantastic multi-purpose playset dioramas – check these outstanding custom playsets after the jump!
Note to Hasbro: Who says kids don’t like playsets? My 6-year old son saw this tonight and won’t quit pestering me about it!
The collecting community is anxious to get their hands on the amazing diorama pieces coming soon from Galactic Merchants! And to help answer some of the many great questions that collectors have, the crew at Imperialshipyards will be hosting a podcast with the lead designer of these great environment sets this Friday at Friday, September 6th at 7 p.m. Eastern Time.
So head on over to Imperialshipyards at that time and listen in!
The highly anticipated Dark Horse series, The Star Wars, hits stores this week. So be on the lookout for this very original take on the screenplay that started it all – and of note, our current Yakfinities Customizing Challenge is themed after Dark Horse comics too – (hint, hint)!
