Yakfinities #84 Kicks Off

The latest Yakfinities Customizing Challenge has begun, and runs through the end of November.

The customizing theme this round is anything that fits into the idea of “Adventurers and Explorers” – so as long as your custom entry is a new creation and fits into the theme, it qualifies!

Head on over to the forums to check out the early submissions, and of course to submit your own!

Yakfinities #83 Heats Up

The above Damano Deomaley custom figure by forum member Darth Daddy (aka Customs for the Kid) may never be made by Hasbro.

In anticipation of the Haslab Cantina, Yakface Forum members have been creating some amazing custom figures in our current Customizing Challenge with over 50 submissions thus far. Check out the latest entries and submit your own by clicking here.

As always, fan fiction entries are encouraged… your creation does not have to be of a character that was shown on screen. Custom entries may be submitted through July 31, but remember they need to be of a new custom you made… and if you are in need of some parts for your entry, head on over to this Yakfinities sponsor, Outer Rim Traders and check out their offerings. They have some great stuff at very reasonable prices… below are just a few examples!

Yakfinities Voting is Open

Category voting for the customizing theme closes on April 24.

Note: Wish lists may also be posted in the comments section of this article. You may post both a TVC and TBS list, but please do not post your wish lists in this comments section AND in the forums. And please remember to indicate if you’re referring to TVC or TBS with each list.

Stan Solo Creations: Ubrikkian 9000 Speeder

Stan Solo’s Ubrikkian 9000 Speeder fits in with both vintage and modern 3.75″ figures.

If you’re active in the customizing community, chances are you have seen photos of the Ubrikkian 9000 Speeder offered by Stan Solo Creations. I recently acquired one, and was not disappointed at all as the quality is through the roof – check out the gallery of pics to help decide if this is something you’d like to add to your collection.
