    Man, what an absolute joy this was. Proper trip down memory lane. CABG was such a big deal for me back in the late 2000s, spent so much time there. So much creativity happened there, it was so inspiring. I hope everyone’s well.
    Genuinely moved by the shoutout. So happy to see Squad 42 is remembered fondly. Thank you. Even if you were ragging on my videos ahahahaha.
    Can tell you that Brad (pizzamovies) is alive and well and flew to England for my wedding last year!!

      if you ever want to rehabilitate any of your “custom” clones, buy an Expo marker and color all over the the sharpie and then wipe it off with a tissue. I had some “custom” P1 plain clones that I had completely covered in sharpie bullshit and I was able to get them back to looking basically brand new. Blew my mind.

      Yeah it's absolutely irritating to hear the whining about the official Lego Minifig designs. The only time I agree with them is that I shouldn't have to buy a $500 Lego set to get some special Minifig. Really Lego should just put more basic designed minifigs in the sets and then just sell the high quality ones separately or do a collectible Minifigures series with them.

    Now this brings back memories. I won’t and say that I did indeed use sharpie to draw on some of my generic clone troopers to make them unique. I still kept a few of them today and I still treasure them as some of my favourite clones I own. So it’s was nice that you were going back down memory lane and honour the early days of custom clone troopers creation. Good job and I can’t wait to see what you do next.

Still miss a couple( Fireguy789, Brickunit and Justsuper9 ''How the clones saved Christmas'') plus anything from the old 2003 Lego star wars website. But overall i still got 90%of them so i'm happy that the memory is preserved.

  • @ANEbk9

    Not a custom clone memory but a custom droid memory: My brother and I once used a lighter to weld a B1 head into the torso of a B2 superbattledroid, essentially making a B2 that actually had a neck. This was a regular beige B1 head mind you (with plenty of burn marks because of the production process) so it didnt look great. A few months back I relocated all of the lego from my parents and came across this guy again. I decided to give him some much needed love with some model paints. After many more than a decade in development, the final product is pretty fun.

    While I was never on those forums, I do remember being awed by people’s custom clones on TH-cam, and trying to make my own by just adding small bits of a light green marker onto one of the battle pack clones, it’s still visible on some of those pieces all these years later

    My brother and I tried making some custom clones. We used sharpies, but since we played with them the ink would rub off easily so then we put more on, then used rubbing alcohol and then the inks blended and gave it a unique battle damaged look.

    Man this brings me back. I used to use sharpie on Lego Clones and also hot glue pieces of metal to them because of inspiration by The Noble Artist. I also always made leg skirts from paper and tape, same for pauldrons

    I was like 10 when this was popular, so I wasn't allowed to use power tools.
    8:40 but, I did find a metal measuring tool my dad had in his tool box that he basically never used, and I used it to sand down the fins on my clone troopers, BY HAND. Needless to say, I only made a few custom commando troopers. 😂😂😂
    Man those were the days.

    I remember using some acrylic paints to turn a Snowtrooper into a Galactic Marine

    man I never was into any of this myself as a kid because we didn't even have wifi when these sites were around but you just gave a name for the weapons (little armory toys) That have been sitting in my collection for 1 and a half decades after getting them from a flea market

    I've never understood the infatuation with clones over stormtroopers, so that segment where you utterly ruined the cool old stormtrooper armor scars me

      It may be that clone troopers were supposed to be characters you sided with (until the later half of episode 3)
