Customize You

[AWOL]

I've had this thought for some time - I thought it'd be cool to start customizing Attacktix figures into the real people on this forum. Wouldn't it be cool to have a Malform Attacktix figure, or a Superfly Attacktix figure, or a Yodabreaker Attacktix figure, or even a Joe figure - all based on what we really look like.

With this idea in mind, what existing Attacktix figure would you use as a "model" figure to start customizing yourself?

I'll start by saying that I'd probably use C3PO, since I'm a bit on the lean side. Despite one of my hobbies being firearms, I decided to go with a striker figure for me because I have acquired up to the brown belt in Shotokan Karate. Because I'm a twin, I'd be tied by the base via one of those wonderful cords as seen in Flying Fett and The Gunship to another C3PO. And my special would be - If white and my twin is still up, stand back up. The cord connecting us would only be about 2 inches to allow for a possible multiple kill for the both of us.

As far as appearance goes, I'd have to dress C3PO in a flannel and jeans, since I practically live in my flannels.

How would create yourself as an Attacktix figure? Combine your personality and physical characteristics when deciding what your Attacktix figure would look like and attack.

Heh. Ironically enough, I was my first Attacktix repaint (Labels are still wrong, though)

I used a Endor Scout as a base, black boots and pants, olive drab undershirt, camo overshirt and cap. It already looked like one of my favorite outfits, so it was no problem. I kept the bandolier, just because it wasn't planned to be exact. The shooter base is perfect because of my interest in the military.

Only thing I would change? Instead of Shootback I'd prefer if it had Recover or Rescue, something to get it back into the action...

I've had the label ready for some while for it, but not sure which figure would work well though (the reason why I haven't done it yet). Baring a more distinct figure with a resemblance to me I'm probably going to tweak a Jedi Knight or two.

Id consider myself a bounty, so how about cutting a Boba fett head and glue it to Han solo's body adding a green bullet.

[Luke Skywalker]

I would use my broken Endor Luke Skywalker for my custom. Although some may not like him, Endor Luke is my favorite Attacktix guy ever. I would paint his shirt dark red, and paint his pants blue like my jeans(I'm wearing jeans this very second). I would keep his lightsaber because lightsabers are my favorite weapon. Then I would keep the Rebel symbol( I like the Rebels) and also keep myself a warrior.

[Big Base Mace]

Most of the attacktix characters are pretty lean so I would have to start with a wookie since I'm 6'4'' and 285lbs, I'm not very hair so I would have to smooth him down. I'd put him in a t-shirt with my fraternity letters on it, jeans and sneakers. I would probably use one of the wookies with a big striker hand because I wouldn't look right with a saber or blaster.
