Customizer Mega Spotlight

There have been some great customs shared in our forums lately – which means a Customizer Spotlight is well overdue!

First up, take a gander at the latest creations by forum member Peakob1 – as always, amazing stuff and Hasbro should take notice.

After that, be sure to hop on over to the customs thread of Uttinniii, who has updated with several new droids.

Forum member Clonetroopr has also been busy, with a fantastic take on a Sith Acolytes from the Old Republic.

Last but not least, one of our favorite customizers, mousedroidhoojib, continues to shine with a great custom of a concept Sith Lord known as Darth Tigran.

TAKODANA

The current Yakfinities Customizing Challenge is well underway, and the theme is Takodana Denizens… or you may better know them as bizarre creatures and droids from Maz Kanata’s castle.

Check out the latest custom entries by clicking here… but… as always, we’ll have some random prizes to hand out – so, why not roll up your sleeves and show off your customizing skills or lack thereof?  The deadline for entries is March 31.

SAGA TOYS in St. Louis

If you’re anywhere near the St. Louis area, I have to recommend you check out SAGA TOYS.

I’ve personally already picked up many items from this collector (and kid!) friendly store and will continue to make them one of my weekly stops.

This place has a fantastic variety of loose and carded toys across a variety of brands such as Star Wars, GI JOE, Transformers, LEGO and more.  The prices are very fair too.

Be sure to check them out if you’re in the area, and “like” their Facebook Page!

Custom Kylo Ren/”Matt” Radar Technician Figures

matt_undercover_custom

It was only a matter of time. Since the hilarious Undercover Boss: Starkiller Base skit aired on SNL last weekend, customizers have taken the initiative in creating action figure versions of Kylo Ren as “Matt” the Radar Technician. SlashGear.com has posted an article that features an image we shared via social media last night and have posted another giving “Matt” the Black Series treatment.

If this doesn’t scream convention exclusive or at least cosplay material, we’ve failed as a fandom.
