Hunting down Hasbro’s new 2012 figures can be a blast, but sometimes an even more rewarding aspect of the hobby is creating your own customs – and Yakface forum members have been busy doing just that!

PROS: The Phase II clone finally started seeing some action in The Clone Wars fourth season and Hasbro has done a great job of bringing into the 3-3/4″ line. While paint apps are minimal the new sculpt showcases the sleek look that the clones have in the show and the interpretation of the helmet looks really nice – the perfect bridge between the animated and realistic style of figures.
