Hey, thanks for commenting. Always appreciate replies.

Who's next?

Well, I've got an Anakin Solo started on the table to finish off the Solo kids. Other than that I haven't started on anyone. Like with DCUC I have about 100 ideas spinning in my head on who I want to make, it's just a question of who catches my fancy.

I'll tell you what, I'll let you decide! Right now I have heads and parts floating around for planned customs of:

Githany from the Bane Trilogy
Image

Lumiya
Image

Admiral Daala
Image

Cade Skywalker & Deliah Blue
Image

Biggs Darklighter, Jek Porkins, Garvin Dreis, Davish Krail, Jon Vander, the Rebel Pilots from ANH (I've had heads and helmet decals for them for almost two years now, just haven't started on them)
Image

Rook Kast and Gar Saxon from Star Wars Rebels
Image

Antares Draco & Ganner Kreig
Image

Quinlan Vos
Image

Here's my workstation for some idea of the mess, lol...
Image
You can see some of the heads sitting there, Lumiya, the Rebel Fleet, Antares, Cade.

So if you want, pick two sets from that list, and that's what I'll do next.

I'm not a huge, huge SW guy, but I have a figure of Lumiya because I like her design so much. So I'm voting her.

I've been thinking of Lumiya for a longtime. Just not sure how to approach her design yet.

Finally solved the Crix Madine doesn't match his figure problem. Saw this on his wiki page :

He was played by the Irish actor Dermot Crowley.When Crowley first walked onto the set he was smooth-faced and the crew presented him with a false beard insisting that he had to wear it. The Kenner Products toy company had already begun pre-production on Madine's action figure, and, since that toy sported a beard, Crowley had to match.

Well cool. See, that's why one shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, I always go for all the options before I jump to conclusions.

OK, well, if it would be Me and I've I already did others, I would want to get more to go with'em or complete'em especially if something hasn't been made before. I complain so many times about companies making the same stuff over and over...I see customizers doing the same. I want different ones that never were made before...IMO who cares about what sells and all that jazz.

With that being said and being a big Star Wars fan, I would do Deliah Blue & Cade Skywalker if I had the talent. I mean you already did some of the major Legacy characters, these are quite important especially Skywalker. I have always liked Deliah, almost as much as Darth Talon. So this is what I would do. I mean their your figures and your making them, this is just Me saying this PB :)

2023 was a slow year for me with customs. The kids are getting older, staying up later. getting involved in more activities, etc. So it feels like I've been working on these commissions for the better part of a year because I think I started them around March. But they're done now, the only bad thing is they won't be in my possession much longer. Hoping to be a bit more active in galaxy far, far away in 2024, but until then...

I know what you mean PB :roll:

Wow, all of these are incredible looking. To be honest I'm really not familiar with them except a little bit of Pied Piper. Mordu & Felix looks like they could fit in with MOTUC. My favorite of the foursome is Hi-Jack. I love how he looks like a 3D version of a Jack in Playing Cards come to life :) These are remarkable PB and look like they were fun to make :)

Thanks for commenting. They were a fun challenge, but a pain in the butt for various reasons. I'm surprised you don't know Faust, he was mainly a JLA villain and in many of the cartoons like Justice League Unlimited and The Super Powers Show (the last season of the 80s Super Friends Show). Mordru was more of a Legion of Super-Heroes villain though debuted facing the JLA/JSA in one of the Earth 2 crossovers of the 60s. Hi-Jack was the Jack of Spades from the Royal Flush Gang when he decided to strike out on his own. They're a nice assortment of villains I wish I could keep, but as AC/DC sang, money talks, lol.

It's always proper to respond when somebody does hard work one way or another ;) I really never watched JLA Unlimited and I wasn't faithful watching DCSP. Good trivia there. Yes, Money Money. Your Welcome :)
