Wonder Twin Powers....form of a Birthday Cake

I share a birthday with my Fiancees best friend, so we doubled up on the crowd at a joint b-day celebration. Figures of "us" were on the cake, simple head swap for me, (no need for extra work), and for her a repaint of a Marion Ravenwood figure (Raiders)  , changed the hair color of a Cover Girl (G I Joe) head and a  Star Wars a Fleet Trooper cap blame a  Soxs cap for her.

New Head Swaps for 2012

Stopped into a new Walmart Express in my hood, and expected just produce , cleaning supplies and sundries... but NO, some of the new vintage sort of hard to find Rebel Fleet and Hoth troopers... so head swapping I went... nice start to 2012

What I Made...They Made...9

Yavin Base Rebel Ground Crew, another figure I felt was missing for decades. Popped apart an AT-ST pilot, arms from a Han Solo (one of the earlier "He-Man" sculpts) a head from some random solider plus the helmet from the uber-buff Fleet Trooper were assembled to make this underpaid worker drone.

What I Made...They Made

Every now and then (more so now lately) Hasbro would put out a figure that I already made some time earlier. Captain Antilles here was made from a Fleet Trooper, Garindan and Ponda Baba. (all Power of the Force Figures I think)
