They are connected with a glue called GOOP, we use it at work- it's very good...but not good enough to keep my armor Vader's hand in socket. -Radar

Come on guys, lets see some pictures! This is my favorite yet. -Radar Do not underestimate the power of the plastic side.

Woo-hoo! Now *that's* a cool custom! I guess he'd end up being a 50 or something for the base, but I'd love it if his special power were the same as it is now (Sacrifice Trooper). Man, do I wish they'd make combo figures like this (think Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan's lightsaber-Force blast battle against the Battle Droids in the Trade Federation ship in EpI). Brilliant work!

Does his arm still rotate or is it glued in place? I think I may have to make one of these.

The force push arm is like the regular arm and the head and the waist as well. There is a round disc shaped piece of plastic on the end of the shaft that allows it to rotate. Do be careful and safe when opening them. I recommend using a box cutter with a razor blade at a 40 degree angle, not the regular 90 degree ones (it's awkward trying to get around body parts). It's fairly visible where the seams are, so make your cuts (on left and right sides so nothing bends too much) then replace your parts. You too can have a very lopsided sith lord. Should you want a better figure...consider grinding the disc, so the force push arm naturally falls down when you are not holding it. -Radar

This thread got moved to the second page (I think because not enough people were looking at it?), for that reason I will be posting a new custom attacktix at least once a week..until I run out of ideas and quit. Star tuned for more custom fun! -Radar

I got a good one for you customizers.
When Series 2 comes out take an extra Jango and an extra force blaster. Put the force blast arm on Jango. If you like do some sculpting/carving to make it look more Jango and paint it to match. Paint your force blast missile yellow/orange (they actually make translucent/clear-ish colored paint for models) and you've got a Jango Fett with Flame Thrower!

That is a good idea sfx.
I was thinking about somehow putting another blaster on Jango so he has 2, since that is his signature.

Sounds cool, but I think the next few are going to be thinking a little outside the box. But all y'all will just have to wait and see. -Radar
