Hi all Looking for some help. I?ve tried searching (don?t know if it?s my phone but not getting any useful results!), Seem to remember years ago when the first Sideshow Stormtroopers were released, people were adding gloss varnish to give the dull armour some shine. Can anyone find links to any...

Sorry if there's already a thread for this guy, I hadn't seen one. £50 delivered and really rather bloody good! I've already swapped the rubbish black painted hands for some DX08 ones I picked up cheap - much better! Going to futz the shirt and maybe re-paint the head, but all in all, ripper!

As a bit of light relief from all the crazy prices we seem to take for granted with our Hot Toys figures these days, I decided to pick up a couple of the Captain Action Costume sets. As much as I like my Hot Toys, I really love the old school comic book look for my Super Hero's and these looked...

Now then. It's been brought to my attention that, on occasion, some of my figures look a little "camp." A turned heel here, a limp wrist peg there..... well with the arrival of a broken lowfool body I saw the chance to quash these vicious allegations once and for all! Without further ado, I...

Hi all Bit late to the party on this one, but picked up a Thor recently and while I dig the figure, he seemed a bit "weedy" Inspired by some super creative people on here,I decided to have a stab at beefing up that "Puny God!" Thought I'd record my efforts as quite a few people seem to want...

Hi. Quick crappy pic of my 3A wall. I'll add more as and when......

Hi everyone. I'm sure a lot of you, like me, who are generally too lazy or don't feel you have the skills necessary to create your own Dioramas, were over the moon when Sideshow announced 1:6 Scale, non film specific, figure environments. Like me I guess a fair few were disappointed when said...

Ok, so I had decided to curb my 1:6th spending, so decided to focus on Original Trilogy and specifically ANH. Then browsing eBay I found an Episode III Medicom Clone going for £25 with a few hours left to bid. Won it for £35 + £8 shipping - Bargain. I never much liked the Ep III helmets but...

Hi all! A lot of people have been saying we should have one thread for all our Star Wars related Customs/Kitbashes/Dioramas and general mucking about. Thought I would start this off by opening the doors to: Uncle Chewie's Custom Chop Shop! <a...

So I woke up this morning 39 years old. For some, it would be a time for introspection... questioning, "what have I done with my life?" "Have I achieved all the goals I set at 19?" Personally, I ripped open the presents and went WHOOO HOOOO! I got this little lot from Dad, Wife & Kids...

A Holy Grail. We all have them. I know this guy is one for many of us. He arrived in the post yesterday, and I am still just sitting and staring, and thinking how incredibly lucky I am! My pictures don't do him justice, in hand he looks 10 times better!!! Thank you, to a couple of very cool...

Hi All I've seen some nice re-dresses of ANH Luke on here, using A new Slim TT body, Stormtrooper Luke Head and Sideshow clothes. I have all the ingredients but didn't feel like unwinding the leg bindings. I know I'll screw something up and never get them looking right again! Then I...

I've been having trouble concentrating on work lately. I think it's because my "Hobby" is starting to take over. I'd like to see the chaos some of you guys live/work in so I don't feel so bad! Please post your Mess (I mean living collections here!) I work from home, and as anyone in my...

Hi I seem to remember someone caste an Episode 2 Clone Helmet, back in the Cloneobi thread. I'm pretty sure they had them for sale for a few bucks. I'd like to get hold of 2 or 3. Can anyone point me in the right direction, or if it's you who made them, PM me :D Cheers! Colin

Hi all, I usually just skip straight to the Star Wars section and had never looked in here before! some really cool pictures. Thought I'd start a thread and chuck some of mine up here. It'll be a random selection, added to as I feel like it - hope you all enjoy! 1) Photo comp entry: <a...

Hi All Just recieved my Ki Adi Mundi in the post for 2nd place in the Sideshow Freaks Photo Contest! Not as exciting as Vader I know - but I really appreciated it, so here are a few quick pics of the Banana Headed Jedi Master. Apologies for dodgy lighting - I need to get some proper studio...

Hi all Been surfin the "bay" looking for a cheap RAH body to caninalise. Left shoulder on one of my Stormtroopers has bust (again). Can't find one. Best I can see is to buy the "Hostel" figure new for about £40!! Anyone got an old body with intact left shoulder? I'm in the UK. If you can...

Ah C*** Picked Abe up off the shelf last night to re-pose him, and noticed his right leg was a bit floppy. On closer inspection it had snapped at the knee joint. Also found the rubber coating on his left arm has started to split in several places:horror I've emailed my supplier (goodshipped)...

Hi All - I've been lurking round the forum for months, having a good laugh at all the comments and picking up some useful info too. I've got a question for any UK freaks out there. Has forbiddenplanet.co.uk stopped trading? I've got two Stormtroopers and the Utapua Trooper on pre-order with...
