Order 66: In the event of Jedi officers acting against the interests of the Republic, and after receiving specific orders verified as coming directly from the Supreme Commander (Chancellor), GAR commanders will remove those officers by lethal force, and command of the GAR will revert to the Supreme Commander (Chancellor) until a new command structure is established.

I love this! The more I look at it, the more cool it is! Really nice use of parts, and the weathering works really well. He looks like he's ready for some heavy-duty action.

While The Empire was hardly known for being an equal opportunity employer, there were occasions where their shock troop forces were bolstered through local inhabitants. One such occasion was the garrison on the remote world of Anteantiller,a small planet in the Outer Rim where a tropical forest annually shed radioactive spores which proved toxic to species with XY chromosomes. Knowing that their male clone troops would provide little use on such a world, the young Imperial Lieutenant Ellif Nescken drafted a number of the female inhabitants of Anteantiller into the Galactic Marines, equipping them with specialised Stormtrooper helmets, armour and weaponry in order to maintain peace and stability on their small world.

Hi Yakfacers. I've been lurking here off and on for years. My buddy BL4CK5H33P guided me into the customs contest area. I usually hang on http://WWW.OG13.com, mostly Gi Joe but I'm a huge Star Wars fan. I'm an OT guy and wanted to pay tribute to the Vintage Snowtrooper. I only use GI Joe parts for customs so this was done with a Cobra Commader masked head (some scuply work)with a Hawk helmet, Duke Resolute Torso, CC waist cape thing. Used Destro Resolute arms and backpack and can't remember the legs. Anyway I hope you all enjoy, there are some wonderful customs here, thanks for sharing them.

You did a great job with this. The ARF Trooper helmet looks much more sinister too.

All three are really, really good. I like the concept behind them too, that you explained in your customs thread. The aliens could also double as bounty hunters...

Amazing work!

Wow, she's got it where it counts! 8)

The idea behind needing to use female troops because of the chromosomes is a cool idea, very neat concept too.

Welcome to the forums here, it's nice to see a fresh face and that's a pretty cool custom. Very original and using Joe parts really worked out well. Thanks for taking part in this Yakfinities and hope to see you around more often. :)

Thanks, had a lot of fun(other than painting 5 White coats) doing this one. I'm working on a more modern Snowtrooper also. Hopefully I can get it done in time and if more than one are permitted. Anytime Customs are around, I'll be around.

This round I took a stab at an Imperial Stormtrooper Medic / field surgeon.

The coolest part on him, the servo arm, has 3 points of functional articulation.
