Toy Run Tuesday #80 - WIP Nightsister

Hello Toy Runners! We return to our regular weekly programming of Toy Run Tuesday, and today I have a couple photos of a custom figure I’m working on. You’ll get to see some behind the scenes photos of a more in-depth custom. It may be shocking to behold! Or not. Just click here to take a look for yourself.

I’ve wanted to make some Nightsisters for quite some time now. A few weeks back, reader MAHSMonster07 posted some of their customs using Boss Fight Studios figures. They looked phenomenal, and I’m glad I am finally getting around to making my own. 

Now for the horrifying bit… I decided to use the ever-abundant TFA Rey figure as a base for my customs. The new figures are made with a hard plastic, so I had to go to town with an exacto and some pliers to split the hip piece and remove the lower legs. Unfortunately I left some residual red dye in the pot when I did the legs, so they ended up with a reddish hue that will need repainted anyway. It’s ok, it was an experiment anyway!

I still have a lot of work to do on this figure, but it’s been fun so far trying some different customizing techniques.
