Don't know how I missed that Mando, time flies I guess...

The red color scheme is striking and unique. I like the Rahk Kota chest armor being used as well as the neck scarf - a little different yet fits him well.

Wow, it has been a while since I updated here. Been buisy with other things but here is what I have been up to.


Justin Rodanthe, now known as Road Dog, is a former Deputy Sheriff from Smyrna Georgia. He and a few like minded friends are operating out of an underground bunker incased by Stone Mountain. They deliver there own brand of justice to the surrounding area...

I found the Jake Sully Avatar figure at Family Dollar and wanted it for the shirt/torso for a custom. So this is Harley, Road Dogs best friend and only one he trusts to ride shotgun on his missions.

I have been inspired by Wraithnine to make a few of my own CW Republic Commandos. Here is the first...

This is a Jedi I made out of the following fodder that was sent to me in a challenge.

Now I am proud to say my son pieced together a Jedi from the parts bag and a few from me. Then he asked me to chage the lower robes a bit and paint it for him. This is Jaxon Sprywalkers first custom.

Road Dog and Harley are wicked cool, and I'm loving that vehicle! Your CW figs are great, and well done to your son for such an awesome custom fig!

Another great update... the Clone Wars figures look very good. Not a huge fan of the animated style, but your customs are very true to it and original.

The non-SW stuff in this update is especially great. Love Road Dog and his ride a lot, and Harley looks fantastic (he's got a smoke in his hand!).

Nice astromechs buddy, I especially like the first one.

Man, looking at that Porkins really makes me want a new one from Hasbro.

Hey Luke Sprywalker,

I just browsed to your latest custom posts:
I am blown away. Great use of parts and incredible paint jobs. Like your various Clone Wars customs but I also dig the non-Star Wars customs. The car you made is awesome. Love to see more of your posts soon! :wink:

Thanks guys and yes the Porkins is long over due. I would love to see him updated and we would have a larger figure for fodder to boot. Glad you guys are liking my non SW customs as I have been more into Joes as they are so easy to work with. They are made for customizing in my opinion. One big reason is I picked up most all my Joes at discount stores or clearanced at Wmart and Target. So on with the show I have an update. Someone at another forum offered up the cast head in the first photo if someone would post a completed custom figure using it. This thing was gold to me as I am working on a custom vehicle that is begging for a Captain. So I was the only one to ask for it, here are the pics.

Man, I'm really not crazy about Clone Wars figures, but you certainly make working with them look like fun. Some really wonderful updates!
