Torture Your Droids, Jabba Style

Yakface forum member Raylen has just released for purchase his latest diorama accessory piece — the contraption droids fear most – the Droid Torture Rack!

You can order this awesome environment piece for your collection at Holeinthegroundpro.com, and feel free to discuss this latest diorama-builder offering in the forums.

Personal Note:  I’ve ordered several items from Raylen, and have been very impressed with each item.   His products are top notch quality, and they fill in huge gaps that have been missing in my scenes, from cantina chairs to Imperial accessory pieces. 

Possible Customizing Remedy for Luke’s Arms

Quite a few collectors have shared their annoyance in our forums with the appearance of the arms on Hasbro’s new Dagobah Luke.  But there may be other options to “fix” this young Jedi by borrowing parts from other figures – such as the 2004 VOTC Luke.

There’s no guarantee this will be a perfect remedy (or work at all), but as a customizer this is something that I intend to try and modify as best I can – and there’s no doubt we’ll see many other customizers attempting to correct Hasbro’s work on this figure too.  What do you think?  Sound off with your thoughts in the forums.

Customizer Mega Spotlight

The hobby may be shifting toward Star Wars Rebels and Episode VII buzz, but all the while, customizers from around the world continue to pump out great custom figures from previously established reference material.

First up, clone custom guru Wraithnine has added some more masterpieces to his Republic forces, which you can check out here.

Peakob1 also gets into the mix, with another outstanding custom in the Clone Wars styling.

We’re also treated to a much more realistic look to Greedo’s vest by customizing master Evilivo, which can be seen in his thread.

Last but certainly not least, soft goods master mousedroidhoojib shares his rendition of a concept version of Padme Amidala.

Check these out, and all the countless other custom figures posted in our forums.
