This week we’ll be spotlighting some fantastic custom diorama/playsets by forum member OGTrilogy – the kind of stuff that really fits in well from a collector point of view, but still have the classic “playset” feel to them.
First off this week, we highlight his custom Jundland Wastes Playset – check out all the pics of this amazing setup by clicking here!
Our good friends at Echobasenews.com have launched a benefit drive, fueled by customizers in the hobby. For more details click on the banner above or click on the link in our forums.
Our very own DanOfTheDead has just shared some more zombie goodies that fit in nicely with Halloween – if you’re a fan of GI JOE, Left 4 Dead, or just cool customs – you gotta check these out!
We hope all our readers who dress up and hit the streets for candy this evening have fun, but be safe! And for those in the mood for a batch of undead Star Wars customs finished up just in time for Halloween, click on the above image!
When the going gets tough for finding new product at retail, customizing can be a great way to add “new” figures to your collection! Check out the latest custom figures from several great customizers in the Yakface forums – if these were basic figures at retail, they would be hard to pass up!
First off, Incom shows off an amazing custom of Mandalorian Novoc Vevut – check it out here!
Next up, if you think Hasbro should give us a new Airborne Trooper, you’ll certainly like this one from forumite PackRatStudios!
Marcus Starkiller also joins in the fun with a cool Special Forces Rebel Sniper!
Last but not least, Fritzkrieg comes back to the Star Wars front with a very nice rendition of a Republic Commando!
Yakface forum member Peakob1 has added several more creations recently to his customizing thread, including an amazing alternate paint scheme on the Clone Wars Y-Wing Bomber.
Be sure to check this out, and keep your fingers crossed that someday Hasbro puts this kind of weathering onto their animated vehicle offerings, because this is awesome!
A brand new customizing challenge has launched in the Yakface forums – Mirrored Reflections!
With this new Yakfinities, customizers are open to pretty much any alternative take on an existing Star Wars figure… if you’ve never customized a figure before, or are a crafty veteran, join in and show off your creative skills after the jump!
And as always, three random winners will be selected from the entry list and will each receive two Hasbro action figures.
The most recent Yakfinities Customizing Challenge has concluded!

And a big thanks to DanOfTheDead for compiling the images once again!
Recently Yakface forum member TK1945 shared an amazing custom project in the forums – a Scout Class Jawa Sandcrawler!
This thing is huge – just imagine an official Hasbro Sandcrawler anywhere near this size! As that may never happen, fans like TK1945 can make up for it in their own way with efforts like this – check out all the pics he has shared after the jump!
