Sounds like a plan to me. I've got a cartoon style Yoda that Glassman sent me a long time ago in a....
I've been wanting to reposition him into the stance he has on the back of most star wars toys. You know, the one that advertises shop.starwars.com.

I've been wanting to do that custom too Phruby. The Toon Yoda in that stance.
I'd probably need more than 5 days to complete that one... :-\

So are you guys thinking animated style?  I'll probably go with movie style myself.  Doesn't Yoda have a large hood or something at the beginning of the snow scene?

I think he does. I say its customizer's choice on toon or regular style. A vintage style Snowbunny Padme could be interesting though...

Ok - customizer's choice - Movie Style, Animated, or Vintage Style.  Heck, we could even do a 12" if you want, Hemble could probably blow us away with something in that scale.

For myself, I'll go with Movie Style.

Glassman - simply stunning customs here!  The sculpts look excellent (especially the "second" version of the headsculpts).  I really don't think hasbro would be able to top these.  Your sculpting and casting skills are unbelievable!  Keep it up!

DE - Great work on your twins!  I like your choice of base-body, the articulation may not be necessary for these characters, but the more articulation, the better in my opinion.  The paint job is really clean and the "hair" looks excellent!
The scariest thing that I've ever seen,
Is the terrible AT-AT walking machine.
It's as big as a house on walking legs,
and whatever it steps on it crushes like eggs.

I've also already started a snowbunny.  Although I was hoping to sell it on eBay to cover some of my recent expenses (its a pain to have to buy your fodder).  I hope I can make mine look half as good as the one that Owen made.

I doubt it.  I have too many To-Do's to be repeating customs i just did a few months ago.
Especially one that took me a nearly a year!!!

I dont want to widen the scope of the project too much, but what if we did
Toon or Movie Versions of any Clone wars cartoon character?
Just a suggestion, but dont just change it on my account.

I'll still be doing yoda.

Well, since the monthly customizing challange is focused on playsets this month I guess we can fill the character hole with an all out Clone Wars cartoon series group project. I'll make an offical thread for this.
