Another thing i want to say - i made a 3.75 scale gi joe MASS DEVICE using 3d modeling, styrene plastic, scratch building, and a bunch of scrap 3d printed leftover greeblies and terrain components. I posted many pics of my work on my former fan page and this business "steve's toys" aka S3D - messaged me and asked me for the files. I refused because i never sell or provide any of my work in any way. He told me to piss off and he will make his own then. Well months later someone told me that he is selling an exact copy of my model! I went to his site and that fat f** used all the orthographic images of my playset to make a pixel perfect 3d model of my work! And selling prints of it! And ive seen that asshole in groups bullying and threatening to sue everyone claiming that they shared his files that he sold! But yet he has no problem using a private fan's design work to make a pixel perfect copy and sell as a product!

Dude i was in his group and i bought quite a few figures from him! I sang his praises and believed his work was truly wonderful! But guess what? I was kicked out of his group because he believed i was a "spy" for his enemies! Ha! I thought it was a joke, but i learned he blocked a few thousand people from his group for the same reason! Really comical!

Have you thought about the original Battlestar Galactic series action figures that were never made like Apollo, Sheba etc. or the British series UFO and Space 1999. The Mattel Flash Gordon would be kool. I actually have brought some of your figures and they are great. Continue success. And keep it Funky!!!

great news! I'd love to see also some figures from Battle beyond the stars, or maybe some battlestar galactica to complete the old mattel series! keep it up! best regards!

Right on for Clash of the Titans. There's a tonne of characters that'd be great to add to the vintage line up. I made a custom Bubo for my Thallo to have on his forearm a few years back.

Cool! Clash of the Titans had so few characters made as action figures

Love the idea of the missing Beetlejuice characters in the same style. Would be cool to see other old lines completed like Dick Tracy, a Sarah Conner for T2, LJN (or Reaction) Dune to name a few.

Well said. I was 10 when Star Wars came out in 1977 and these people just exhaust me. Some well meaning people did the best they could and it didn’t work for you. Get on with your life. It’s not some woke conspiracy. It’s a company trying to expand its reach. And you’re free to not like it.

SO stoked for Beetlejuice. And not sure if there's appetite for Krull but... here's one upvote.

Sounds awesome! Cannot WAIT for Beetlejuice! Are you still taking a stab at Blade Runner?

Is the secret Space Ghost? I’m not saying a Zorak figure would be life changing, but I’m also not not saying it.

Nice collection and display brother! Thanks for the helpful hints

I wanna get the ewok set off you for my gf ewok em and film her painting them 😂 your work is dope!

Wow this is crazy! I am 49 years old and I never heard of you or this other guy until today, I did not even know custom figures existed until a few days ago. I'm not a collector. I'm just a huge Star Wars fan. I used to have a few of the Kenners when I was about 6 or 7, but I never held on to them more than a year or two, i played rough with my toys at that age, when I had battles sometimes the figures got decapitated. like Vader. All I have right now is the life size Yoda from Sideshow and a Lightsaber I built at Disneyland. But I am wanting to get a whole set of customs, maybe, maybe one day I might also get some of the vintage MOC graded stuff too if I can ever afford it, but for now I just wanna get custom stuff to have displays of in my game room & theater room. But, I am really impressed with you & also the guy you don't mention by name, I just found both of you this week, and amazed by the high quality of both your items I see online. But what shocks me is that a Star Wars fan could be as mean as what you described, I always thought Star Wars was supposed to be light hearted and a way to access our childhood and a simpler and happier time, I would have thought people that make this stuff would have been happier more pleasant people to deal with, so it's disappointing that you have had this experience with this person as well as a few others in the comments. Makes ya wonder what is going on in his life maybe to make him behave that way.... as talented & successful as he is, and to be a part of Star Wars history and Star Wars community you would think that he'd be so filled with happiness and that he would show more respect to you and other Star Wars fans, especially when it's people like you all that afford him the opportunity to make an income doing this. People should be nice, because I know some people that won't buy from mean people , people that will gladly pay double for something made by him on the Bay being sold by someone else just to avoid putting money in his pocket. Hopefully he rights his wrongs with you and others and becomes a better person because Star Wars is supposed to be a happy place for everyone.

A few weeks after my order from this individual showed shipping, I simply asked a few questions about status which were answered, however once my order finally arrived, I too was blocked. There's way too much drama out there with regards to custom figures, but glad we have a method making this fun(ky) again.

Would it be possible for me to give him say £17.50 for production or whatever and then give u £7.50 for the design. Would that work?

I can't combat an onslaught of rabid "Stans" that will come running! BUT... At least I can say that you handled this in the most respectable and adult like way that could be expected! Good On You!! I'll gladly give you a like and subsribe!! And to be honest if it's his snarky comment at the bottom..... Then clearly he is a crybaby bully that Needs to grab a Kleenex and get back to ripping off other peoples designs!!!!

Where can I find Ouroboros Customs ??

Grab a kleenex and get back to 3D printing someone else's characters.

Welcome to the club. Same thing happend to me when I reviewed some of his and his competitor's products. Got banned and his minions came after me, had to disable comments. Lots of rage issues.

That is shitty. Hats off to you for being so cool about it. I can see why Eminem wrote that song about him now.

Ah yes I heard about this guy. I bought the Speeder 9000 off eBay rather than direct from him. I heard people with any issues with their figures having very bad experiences with him. He is very vulgar and rude apparently. Did not expect him to do this though since he claims to be righteous; especially standing up for Michael.....the one who has a youtube channel......Nonetheless you did the right thing by being classy instead of behaving like him.

Yup! He did the same thing with my Oola figure.

Sorry man, I hate design theft. He blocked me 2 yrs ago because I tried to tell him to be civil in the comments on my YT page (a glowing review of one of his figures BTW). He started cussing out a commenter and then me. Great figures but I’m done with him. Good of you to clarify the situation for your followers.

Whats the weird sculpture behind you with the holster? Looks like the legs turn in on themselves.

Bad Batch Asajj please!

Man. Didn’t know this existed. I love all the Star Wars figures made by all of you guys! Fulfills my childhood dreams with all the stuff you guys do!

Internet nerd drama. The worst kind. I know it well my friend.

Displays definitely need backdrops

I purchased one of your figures. FANTASTIC work my guy!

Great video! Do more!

Nice collection! Wow!

The Bossk is really striking!

When you display your figures in glass baseball bat boxes like that do you have to dust them every month? What is the maintenance like?

I said the same thing, The Acolyte was like a Trek fans idea of what Star Wars should be. Jedi are like cops enforcing laws on every planet, investigating murders, detaining people, etc. Not to mention that lightsabers were like a last resort to this hand-to-hand combat that we've never really seen. I'd accept it as a lost art if it was more in tune with the abilities of a force user.

I want a Mon Mothma in a Metal Bikini, with Saggy Boobs and Wrinkles. Get To It!

they have a small selection of vallejo products at hobby lobby greenville tx

Fantastic stuff! Congrats. Great sculpts and paint jobs! So cool.

Question, what would the original kenner team would say it they saw these? And do you think they would be saying " repaints!,mix and match parts!! WHY DIDN'T WE THINK OF THAT!! " LOL

So COOL !

I received one like ur saying tacky to the touch ,so I just simply used baby wipes gave it a good go over dry then painted it and it turned out fine.

I just dig hearing what you're going to be working on! I do like the Hollywood Monsters I grabbed off your cults... and I haven't printed the TaunTaun yet... gotta get that done... Too busy with work and my own figures.

I was told, some time ago, to always make sure my angle degree was always 47... no idea if it actually makes any difference at all. My figs are constantly plagued with support pocks... hate it.

thanks for the video! its great seeing this for Figures.

brilliant!

Great video thank you. A lot of these same principles of part arrangement works for filament printing your designs as well. Only things I do different is the neck peg flat on its side and feet flat on the plate.

I’ve been out of it for a little while, but this was a great video to jumpstart the passion. Thank you Sir for such a great tutorial! It’s fascinating to watch the process, and I look forward to purchasing more of your creations!

Excellent! This should be helpful for a lot of folks. Well done! Keep up the good work! :)

How is this not Illegal Bootlegging though?

I know your weren't going to teach people to suck eggs but I'd love to see how you lay out a printbed and your supports so as to support and not loose any figure definition. Help us all stop the frustration of it all going wrong 😂
