"Sometimes you think you've finished the custom and you haven't. And that's ok. You can always come back around and change things up. Nothing wrong with that." -Bob Ross... er, Robo
You made me think of when I first started customizing. I was like 12 playing with my GI JOE figures, and I remember that I would draw up TMNT "outfits" on paper, the shells, elbow and knee pads, etc, and would cut them out and tape them on the JOEs to make them part of the Turtle army. I also used dry erase markers for "blood" effects because it wiped off pretty easy. I didn't start customizing again until a few years ago though, and I'm 43.
"I need more Dwarves." Yep... I feel that. Dwarves, horses, and the moose dragged me into Mythic Legions. Also, that RDK head is awesome. I kinda wanna put it on a K2SO since I have Dave's beanie head on a Rangetrooper with a popcorn bucket
Brian, Josh, and Jared are some of my go-tos for parts and ideas. The cosmic Robo is amazing! I'm so glad everything worked out for that. And seeing your face opening it up is all so sweet!
Play Day is such an incredible highlight for any day! Your custom work is great as usual, passion and unbridled joy is seeping through every molecule of these figures! If you're open for a quick tip about painting skin tones since I noticed that both Gyrich (as you noted) and Rachel veer pretty heavily towards the pink spectrum, try my recipe of Cadian Fleshtone mixed with a whole lot of white depending on the characters paleness. I find that it makes for a really nice caucasian skintone that can easily be modified into tons of shades! Keep the videos coming, Robo! You are a blessing to to this community!
Oh man, thanks for the tip! I think I have Cadian around here somewhere but dang do I hate mixing paints, heh. But flesh rarely comes straight out of a pot, sigh.
These Play Days are so fun to watch. I may not always have a connection to the characters being showcased, but as an artist myself, I can’t help but be incredibly impressed by the craftsmanship from both the printers and our protagonist: Robo. You make these Play Days and Rewinds so much more alive and you legitimately inspire me. As I’ve gotten older, collecting has had to take a back seat in my life, and it sucks. But Robo has been there to tell me “You’re never too old to play, and if you play, it’s a good day.” Thank you, Robo. You keep doing what you’re doing you talented, funny man you. Happy Holidays, to all collectors. 🎄
I found the DecoArt's metallic range sit really well on that dwarf. I painted one with emerald green armour with pearlescent white studs... The black/green ink they do went over it well too
The Nein Nunb looks incredible and really highlights a glaring omission in the Black Series line. But also, Lobot is needed. And a Wing Guard army builder pack.
Hey Robo, I think I would swap those Rachel heads. Spikey hound costume Rachel was angrier. She was far more at peace with herself when she embraced her "mom's" Phoenix costume.
Krakoa Xavier is a black buck perfect for Vanisher. I heard many just threw that unhelmeted head on and used him in their displays as Vanisher from the start.
That custom Robo Robo head is so dope! It would look cool on an Avengers Hasbro Marvel Legends Series Gamerverse 6-inch Collectible Atmosphere Iron Man Action Figure Toy.
I've put the new classic nick fury head on the Murdock suited fig (recent one)... And apart from the gangly arms, Fury now has a 60s looking Man from Uncle kinda vibe to him. Which makes me smile. Bit like some of his Strange Tales appearances...
Just another great, fun video Robo! I always love your enthusiastic, positive approach to what is a silly hobby we so-called grown-ups engage in. Never stop!
what do you do about prepping pinless joints for painting tho....that has vexed me as I havent seen tutorials with people talking about that and i have a number of customs i wanna build off that Shriek buck
You rock. You have a Head Pool for storage. I have annexed teapots for action figure weapons that my kids havent destroyed yet. they have "cart blonch" on most everything. I spelled that word wrong. In a different language probably.
Hey Robo, long time viewer but was wondering, do you do custsomizing videos that I am somehow missing? Also, I'm looking for a 1/12th scale replacement head for my SW:BS slave Leia that has a better likeness, suggestions? Thanks in advance, bub!
I ordered three Xavier’s for under $7, earlier. Plus, the WWE Lowrider (cheaper online), retro Phoenix, and a few others. Plus my discount. Also, returned my last couple months’ of purchases, rebought them with extra holiday discount. +extras. Original total: just shy of $1,200. Actually paid: $80 😂😂
You don't need a custom Lando. Lando piloting the Falcon is just the General Lando that Hasbro already gave us, but you remove the cape and shoulder holster.
Robo seems the type of guy you would met at the toy aisle in Wallmart and he would just forgot that he went there topo get groceries an the two of you just stand there having fun and talking.
That’s what happened when I walked into Saga Toys (RIP?) about two years back. Robo and VeeBs were just inside the door, chatting and I caught them before they left on their way to see “Spencer Powers” wrestle other sweaty men. Then they went antiquing. 🤐😂. Owner had no clue who they were. His wife(?) was there for the Danhausen review filming and I believe PixelDan?
The “excuses” jig has been one of my favorite newer recurring jokes
Same here 😂😂
Same. Although I wouldn't mind the return of mini-Robo either...
Corey is the best, CastingCave heads make any figure look 1000x better
Superman Trailer and Play Day in the same morning , Let's Flippin' Go .
Star Wars Kenner Series one… 1978.
Yep. Best hobby in the world! Love the Robo stuff! ❤
As a fellow beardo, I appreciate how you always keep the beard represented.
Custom play days are some of my favorite playdays
"Sometimes you think you've finished the custom and you haven't. And that's ok. You can always come back around and change things up. Nothing wrong with that." -Bob Ross... er, Robo
Those speed paint 2.0 metallics, just what I have been needing...so Thanks a heap Robo, and THANKS for another super fun play day! MUCH LOVE!
Robo, your paint jobs are leaps and bounds beyond what most of us can do! Don’t hate on your skills! Baby Deadpool looks so
Clean!
*And* an Excuse Jig!? You're spoiling me, sir!! 💙
Nien Nunb, Lobot, and Biggs Darklighter are all overdue in Black Series.
Still waiting on my 6” Porkins and Snap figures, too!
Crazy seeing Fuzz mentioned in one of these, super cool guy that I’ve been buying from since I started making customs

Another hilarious and entertaining video dude 🤘👍
That's a good saying us customizers can get behind:
"Sometimes you think you're done with the custom, but the custom is never done with you!"
I love the angry Rachel Summers head! It looks perfect to me, I'd love if I had that. Now I'm tempted to try my hand at a Rachel custom...
"I need more Dwarves." Yep... I feel that. Dwarves, horses, and the moose dragged me into Mythic Legions.
Also, that RDK head is awesome. I kinda wanna put it on a K2SO since I have Dave's beanie head on a Rangetrooper with a popcorn bucket
Matt is a great dude and a makes some fantastic pieces! Very happy for all the success he's had in the community!
My man!
@@13zCustomsAAAYYYYEEEE! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thanks for sharing Robo! Funnily enough I’d just ordered the metallic speed paint 2.0 set, so looking forward to using them even more now.
Brian, Josh, and Jared are some of my go-tos for parts and ideas. The cosmic Robo is amazing! I'm so glad everything worked out for that. And seeing your face opening it up is all so sweet!
Everything looks so good. Blown away by the X-customs.
... 2:10 Good old Robo, doing his dancing jig... I'm always loving it Robo! :)
Awesome! Brian is such a good dude. Awesome to see his piece completed.
I started watching your videos because of the weeklys, but the play day videos have become my favorite.
Your Nine Numb experience matches mine exactly! Genuine spit-take! 🍻 😂

Cosmic Robo looks sooo cool!

the ML pretty boy body I think will be good for the robo logo head😁
by the way every video you release is very entertaining 👍👍
That RDK figure is unbelievably sick!
The Nein Nunb looks incredible and really highlights a glaring omission in the Black Series line. But also, Lobot is needed. And a Wing Guard army builder pack.
Hey Robo, I think I would swap those Rachel heads. Spikey hound costume Rachel was angrier. She was far more at peace with herself when she embraced her "mom's" Phoenix costume.
Hey that’s me :) ❤
That Xavier head could be a good base for Vanisher.
Krakoa Xavier is a black buck perfect for Vanisher.
I heard many just threw that unhelmeted head on and used him in their displays as Vanisher from the start.
Awesome vid Robo you were on one for this that wookie is 🔥🔥🔥
That custom Robo Robo head is so dope! It would look cool on an Avengers Hasbro Marvel Legends Series Gamerverse 6-inch Collectible Atmosphere Iron Man Action Figure Toy.
Clean bro...super clean
Ok. Now I want a Robo figure!!

Awesome episode! More Mythic Legions? Yes, please!
PLAY DAY
PLAY DAY
PLAY DAY
I also made a custom Gyrich. :D lol I used the old Chameleon body, and I think it was the Murdock head, or cowl-less Scott/Cyclops head.
PLAYYYYY DAYYYYYY!!!!! 💙💙💙💙
I’m hearing this like the old Viva La Dirt League “Veevaaaaa…!!!”
Great video my guy would love to see your display of everything
again with the sneaky music cues. so good.
I've put the new classic nick fury head on the Murdock suited fig (recent one)... And apart from the gangly arms, Fury now has a 60s looking Man from Uncle kinda vibe to him. Which makes me smile. Bit like some of his Strange Tales appearances...
To add to your toolbelt Mr. Super Clear UV Cut Matt makes things even duller in my experience, and supposed to protect from yellowing on white etc.
That Ouinlan Vos looks so awesome
my favorite quote from this one - "he's a lil tank!" hehehe
Just another great, fun video Robo! I always love your enthusiastic, positive approach to what is a silly hobby we so-called grown-ups engage in. Never stop!
I'll have fun until there's no more fun to be had!
@@RoboDontKnow thanks for the great videos! Very fun
Play day hype 🎉🔥
The Patina Prince is the man
I'd prefer the Rachel heads swapped, but still loving the work
Paint up the blue lantern chest piece from a couple weeks ago and make blue lantern robo!
The same gang actually has a custom chest piece on the way. They are spoiling me!
The Patina Prince himself
❤ ya dub
I need that Cyclops. Looks sooo good
My eyes don't deceive me, I do see a decapitated Danhausen 😂
Always a good time
What I need a reference link for is that SHIRT Robo!!
Amazing customs
Robo really loves using that Fortnite beefboss Figure
I had a StarWars ABC’s book with tape back in the day & they pronounced Nien Nunb the way you do. “Nien Nunb isn’t dumb, but boy his silly name is”
Legions Love ❤
lol robot Definitely had your look
Looks like the cape similar to Cobra Commander from Super 7
Anytime I have a character with glasses I tend to want to paint the glare reflection what ever it's called.
I gotta get me some of those metallic paints
You got more than one Plo Koon? I never even saw one.
what do you do about prepping pinless joints for painting tho....that has vexed me as I havent seen tutorials with people talking about that and i have a number of customs i wanna build off that Shriek buck
Gyrich's body is from MCU's Matt Murdock?
wait...there's a method to the Mattness?
love that jig, lol
You rock. You have a Head Pool for storage. I have annexed teapots for action figure weapons that my kids havent destroyed yet. they have "cart blonch" on most everything. I spelled that word wrong. In a different language probably.
Robo, get any old-school Zeus from McFarland. The beard and the knee caps and the little skull chains.
I turned beard parts into flightless death bird neck. Craw
Wookie parts, reverse beard cowls
Carte Blanche.
I really need a quinlan vos
Ro Bo shark doodoo doodoodoodoo😅
Nice art.
My ct toys Wolverine should be here today!
Do you have a power nullifier for Gyrich.

Surprise Robo in the morning!
These are fun
Yayy!!

You don't need a custom Lando. Lando piloting the Falcon is just the General Lando that Hasbro already gave us, but you remove the cape and shoulder holster.
Oops, I meant in Empire when he's wearing Han's clothes.
@ 😮 I'm having a Berenstain Bears moment here.
Haha, yeah, in my head yesterday I pictured him beside Nein Nunb in RotJ but he was actually beside Chewy in ESB.
Anyone know of someone who’s made a Gi robot head form the CC show? Figures the play day comments would be a good place to see
