After messing around with my Stormtrooper for a couple days I realized that a Luke Skywalker Stormtrooper could still be a long way off. I started to panic... I freaked!!! I grabbed my dremmel and got to grinding. I bored the neck hole on the Luke Skywalker head to fit the Stormtrooper peg. I covered the ball joint in baby powder and blew the excess off then filled Luke's head with hot glue. I pressed them together and within minutes I had a tight functional custom ball joint... Good as bought.
Ooohh. With supplied parts maybe but with these guys being pretty hard to get a hold of I couldn't sign on to chase these boogers down again. We've got 10 targets in our 30 mile area... Talk about a goose chase.
So how did you get all the sand paint apps off it? I'm thinking of cleaning mine up and I figure there's two ways to go about it. a) paint over it in white b) take off the brown with nail polish remover or other solvent. Nice piece btw.
I used a lacquer thinner, Qtips and paper towels. Used for cleaning brushes and tools. Knocks it right off. Watch the black though. It's pretty thin paint.
I figured this would be the first Black Series custom we'd see. Looks great. I'm worthless with a dremmel, so I'll hold out for the inevitable release. Maybe a Luke/Han 2-pack someday?
