Mouse Guard Figure Set (Mouse Guard) Custom Miniature / Figurine
Mouse Guard is a critically acclaimed independent comic series that I recently got into. Imagine the Hobbit meets Watership Down. They made un-articulated PVC figures but I wanted some "real" action figures that were fully articulated and captured more of the mousy look from the comics. Recipe for the three main characters: Lieam, Saxon and Kenzie, are all the same. I needed three small base bodies and the new Ewok 3-pack from Hasbro was perfect. I sculpted the mouse heads over the Ewok heads so I could still make use of the ball joint neck. The Ewok feet were popped off and replaced with mouse legs (created with metal wire coated with hot glue and sculpty feet). Tails were done the same way. The whiskers are toothbrush bristles and the cloth capes have a hidden wire so they can be shaped and "posed". Figures are articulated at the neck, shoulders, wrists, waist and legs.  Please wait... |

Wicked little guys.
Walter,
Thanks for the e-mail! Those are very cool! Thanks for sharing them.
We talked with Diamond about poseables (well, Diamond talked to us really) and the consensus was that to get them to balance, the feet would either have to be fixed to a base or the proportions would need to change. Part of me is glad we went the way we did, but other times I wish I could tilt Saxon's head or lower Lieam's arm.
Anyhow, great job and thanks again!

Pretty cool to get acknowledgement from the mind that birthed this awesome property. I think he just made me a fan for life.
I will probably try to pick up a few more of the Ewok 3 packs to create some more of the Mouse Gaurd cast (Celenawe, Sadie, Conrad in one set - Midnight, Gwendolyn, and Rand in another). We'll see. I've never sold a custom before so much time goes in, I don't know what to charge. Glad their is another MG fanatic on the boards.
