And the last in process project. A few years back I seen this on Ebay. At the time people were unsure as to if it was a real mock up.....anyways I have made a custom of the Bespin World Set. Eventually this will be setting in it's own custom box.

These are great Todd. Especially like the Sy Snootles moc. Altho i have seen Sy and Max repro mocs before they always look really cheap and scream "custom!" where as the beaten up look to the card and the stickers make yours look very authentic.

I've always wanted someone to do a run of trilogo mocs of the figures never released on true trilogo... Greedo, Hammerhead, Power Droid, 4-Lom etc. That would look awesome if done right.

I added the beat up look just for the reason you stated. They have more of vintage feel with that effect plus adding real vintage era price tags/Offer stickers help with the effect. I use materials closer to the original printing process (No crap photo paper used here) to help with all this. I have thought about making trilogos, just have never real never gotten around to it.
 
I think they look quality Mark Poon, sorry Todd :D

In all seriousness, I understand why people make customs like this - they add to the hobby and only someone with little to no knowledge would think that they are anything other than custom even if they fall into the wrong hands.

I would love to see a figure to see the figure for the 'clown droid ****' and would even more impressed if there name were on the actual cards :lol:

The glasslite cardback is a complete custom not a 'restoration' ? :shock:

Complete custom ( Yes I manufactured everything, except for the figure.Like I said in the past...I used to be one of those guys like Mark Poon....I now just reserve my work to myself..just customs and only for myself)...believe it!!!!!!!! They never put Luke X-Wing on a Glasslite card......but I did :D :wink:
 
Sterling job on these Todd, can't fault the luke X wing it would have had me fooled as I know as much about glasslight as you could write on the back of a postage stamp :lol: the sy snootles is also superb.

If I made a request would you be interested?, would be strictly my own collection m8.

That clown droid will be the mutts as well if you can get the figure right
 
I will do work for long time members of this forum, as I trust many of you not to pass any of the customs off as real. So let me know what you want and we will see if it is possible.....and no my next move is not to make 1 to 1 copies of produced action figures.

Hey Todd, great work buddy. I have an idea.... PM sent 8)


Your lucky...with a comment like that back in the day when this forum was really hopping...the guys would have jumped all over the "I have an Idea "statement. :D :wink:
 
They look real. specially with the aged effect.

If you join forces with Poon- you would be a great threat to us :cry:

First I would have ram around 100 cases of repro stormies up his ass with around 50 pounds of C4. :D
