Does anybody here have or know how I can get a Clone Commando mold/cast or parts? I really want to make myself one of these guys!!

You might consider waiting for Hasbro's release in 2006. It looks like there will be some good parts in there, and you should be able to remove bits and pieces of the production figure to make variants.

More pics of the Mon Calamari Jedi...



For anyone familiar with sea life, crabs and lobster take to cracked shells pretty well. They show a nice scar, but they do just fine with what appear to be pretty serious wounds. I imagine a Mon Calamari in the field is bound to take a shot in the head at some time, primarily because he's not all that concerned when something glances off the ol' dome. Check out the nice scar:


It is *very* difficult to capture in pictures (especially bad ones like the one below), but I've given him a secondary shell color - a nice cool green that's blended into the pinkish red we see on most Mon Cals. This is a shot of the back of his head. About as boring as they get, but the detail is in there if you look hard enough


Ready for action, sans photo effects on the beefy saber. It's about twice as thick as a typical lightsaber... I envision it as being some sort of light-meat-clever...


A slightly tighter shot with a photo effect lit saber.


Packin'


Hooded and slingin' bolts. This shot shows some of the green detail better.

I was kinda bored at work today, so I made this:



 

OK guys, here're the additional pics I promised of my Mon Calamari Jedi. I did some detailing tonight I hope you all will appreciate...

"Dude, seriously, this is just ridiculous..."
"It wasn't my idea, Ki. I promise..."


OK, if you've made it this far, I want your help. I'm struggling with a good name for this guy. I like two word names. Here are some I've kicked around, and if you like one please let me know.

I'm open to any and all ideas. I really love this guy, but his name won't come to me, and he needs a name. :p

CHEWIE -

Great stuff as always. I really want to incorporate some custom beasts onto my collection, but the fodder never looks promising enough to me. I'm going to have to hit some rummage sales and flea markets and just *practice* now, as I see what can be done with a little ingenuity and a lot of hard work.

You know what strikes me most about the Trenchback? His expression. He looks so real to me, and so believable as a SW beast (i.e. I could see him standing with a Ronto on Tatooine or rubbing elbows with any of the Naboo beasts)...

I'm also digging that Rodian, and the Bigfoot custom looks more Star Wars than I imagined it would. Bravo on those as well.

Keep it up, man. You make a visit to these boards a sure thing in terms of finding something cool to look at

Looks cool.  I might suggest getting rid of the Joe bodies, and putting the Crimson Helmet onto some Clone bodies.

That would be very cool, and much easier than my suggestions.

Sounds good, CHEWIE. I'm planning (as soon as I fix all the bent legs) on assigning 5 or 6 of these guys to my Neimoidian field officer for special ops (Clone hunting). Perhaps IG-34 can tag along and perhaps drop some hapless Wookiees on the way.

I have ten (yes, TEN) IG droids with bad legs... I'm going to try this and see if I can get 'em straightened out.

Thanks!

Magilla, he looks cool without the cloak, maybe even more vintage-esque.  Maybe a vintage vinul vader cape would be a good touch.

 

You know, given Maul's outfit being blousier above the knees, a black vinyl cape cut like vintage Lando's might actually look cool and give him the bulk around the torso created by his blousy duds. I'm just trying to think vintage...

This looks really cool.
