Bespin Security: just a step above Mall Guards

Some head swaps and the use of a Star Trek Next Generation Worf as the cut from the movie (or never actually filmed) : Utris M'Toc

 

 

 

Little More Bespin ... Still Gassy

More head swaps and tweaking of older 1990's figures....

 

Bespin - Gassy and Orange

Again - mostly old customs using the figures from the 90's and 1 vintage Cloud Car Pilot.

What I Made...They Made...8

From the "Deleted / Unused File"

Utris M'Toc - Bespin Cloud City Security Guard was to appear in The Empire Strikes Back, but his scenes were ultimately cut. Taking the POTF Bespin Guard (Asian head sculpt) and placing a repainted  Star Trek the Next Generation Worf figure (from Galoob) the alien cop was made.

Bad, Cheap, Simple Dioramas

Trying to find cool ways to show off the customs ... blank white backdrop? Blue? Grey?

Images from a galaxy far far away ...CHECK

Head Swapping Like Mad

Some of the simplest customs are part of an army builder approach. Buy a few soldiers , guards, troopers and pop off and swap the heads. PRESTO - conscripts for the imperial navy, or new commandos for a rebel strike force, or extra security for Cloud City.

Figures from other 3 3/4 lines ( G.I. Joe, Dragonheart, Star Trek, Marvel Universe) as well as figures from within the line; all work perfectly.

Sometimes I have to drill out the hole in th ebase of the head, of shave down the neck post to make a perfect fit. If its too loose, a little crazy glue, and BAM
