Yakface forum members continue to up their game as customizers – and our latest spotlight showcases some familiar names and a relative newcomer to the customizing scene.
First up, my kind of scum continues his recent customizing blitz with a great set of Tonnika sisters, which you can see a full shot of here, along with a plethora of other great recent updates.
Next, forumite CommanderJoe276 shows off his very first customs, which are some excellent 501st style Clone Wars troopers.
Finally, we get some more OT goodness from Evilivo, who has created an upgraded version of Max Rebo’s organ, a revamped version of Salicious Crumb, and more.
Check these great customs out in our customizing forums and share your thoughts! And if you’re customizing and not sharing your work in our forums, we’d love to see your stuff!
Twitter follower The Plastic Empire has shared with us a find at his Canada Walmart – all 6 of the Digital Commemorative Release sets from Hasbro. They are priced there at 29.99CD. The packaging is well done but the contents leave something to be desired.
We’re still accepting entries for the current Yakfinities Customizing Challenge, but in the meantime, voting has begun to determine what the theme will be for the next one, which kicks off in April. So, head to the forums and check out the contenders, then be sure to cast your vote!
It’s time for another Customizer Spotlight, and I’d say this one is long overdue – forum member I-am-Boba-Fett continues to churn our custom figures at a staggering pace, creating all kinds of figures that we can only hope Hasbro gets to someday.
Check out his latest work after the jump!
We just received confirmation via HunterPR that Ahsoka and Darth Vader figures revealed yesterday will be sold together (Mission Series style) and not on individual cards.
We are still a few months away from their planned fall release so plans may change before then.
