Admiral Screed 3.75" Star Wars Custom Figure Droids

I bring you another Star Wars custom, none else than Admiral Screed himself;

I was looking among my Indiana Jones figures for using them in dioramas and others for Star Wars, and I found the german biker I had, missing a finger and with his nose chopped off, plus some equipment missing. Just after seeing the Droids series... he was nearly halfway already into being Screed! Such a easy custom I could not let pass. I am not one of those which customizes figures from it's own collection, but he was in very poor condition, and not being a rare figure I thought he would be much happy as a Screed than as a half wounded third reich soldier :) .

Spaceport Officer Droids cartoon Star Wars action figure custom

Spaceport Officer; while taking screenshots to make the Sais Fromm henchman, I saw this guy writing on a side (we'll have to assume that is a ipad he is writing on!) and thought, how random is that guy, and irrelevant to the story, I should make him! for the sake of Star Wars collectability. It looks actually rather cool. I took a son of Indiana Jones, a Duke head, and Mace Windu's boots, and with some epoxy here he is. I attach picture from where I took him, as it's impossible anybody remembers :) . 







RC-15, Mace Windu's astromech (Star Wars) Custom Action Figure

For a change, a custom made for my collection :) . I am in Star Wars mood, and hence, I saw a parfum tap lying around (I tend not to throw away anything that is solid and non-perishable :P) and said, god, that is screaming an astromech to be made on him!

Casuality (or utter chaos!) brought in the legs of the GI Joe ARAH cobra drill, which look tremendously like astromech legs. A bit of drilling and most of the job was there. Then, another out of the box idea came to me, and is to use spare decal paper from a VR Trooper ship (I told you! absolutely nothing gets thrown away :P) which kept the chrome plated and design. A bit of cutting out here and there, and then, I was tempted of leaving it as is, but I decided to finish the job, sculpting eyes and periscope, and chroming them. A milk bottle tap to cover the bottom and voilà, Mace Windu has his own, signature female Astromech. A bit like the aces on Resistance have their personalized droid, Mace Windu cannot be less :).
