The Better Side of 5POA

For those of you active in our forums, you are probably aware that I am not a fan of 5POA figures.  I could be, if Hasbro tweaked the assembly of them a bit… (customizers, you probably know what I’m referring to).

However, Hasbro’s latest TFA offerings are starting to show some improvement over much of what they’ve been pushing the past few years in this style – head on over to the forums for a quick look (and mini-review) at Sidon Ithano, First Mate Quiggold, Unkar Plutt, and Admiral Ackbar!

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.
