My Custom Jeremy Bulloch / Boba Fett Action Figure

[azheat]

Finally had a chance to finish my custom Jeremy Bulloch / Boba Fett figure. Most everyone is going to (or already has done) this; so it's nothing new. I started with the legacy figure, removed the standard head (pictured on the far left), then bought two Jeremy Bulloch "Jeremoch Colton" figures.

I shaved the neck post down a little on the Fett figure so that the Colton head would sit down more proportionately. The Colton head is much larger than the one that came with the legacy figure.

I took off all the hair on one of the Colton figures, smoothed it down, and painted on the balaclava. I also shaved a small portion off the Jay Lenoesque chin. Now the helmet fits perfectly, it doesn't bulge in the visor, and the chin doesn't stick out.

Came out just how I wanted.

Now I can display the figure with the helmet on, helmet off with Bulloch and balaclava, or helmet off with Bulloch hair.

What do you think?





Figure with new Bulloch head.

I've got a Colton Figure on card waiting to find a good fett figure to do this with. I haven't seen the legends yet, good to know the neck post is too big. I think I'll be displaying it with the helmet off so I won't worry about shaving the hair or the chin, an easy head swap for me will accomplish what I'm wanting.

Great work.

nice, but sorry to correct you, your figure is not a "legends line" figure. you used BD36 of the current 2009/10 Legacy line.

here's a different approach 4 figures were used to create one, the votc fett, colton, 300th figure boba fett and the evolution 3 pack fett. to come up with the one in the pics below.

Ahh, thanks for the clarification. I didn't really want to get into kit bashing several figures, this was a real easy modification. Yours looks good.

Not so much that it is too big, but too tall rather. The head actually pops on very easy, I just didn't like how high it sat. I just took a small portion off the top and sides of the neck post.
