  • In this video I will share my process on how I made my Mezco-style Empire Strikes Back Boba Fett custom. This 1/12 scale figure is a fairly straight forward build with almost no sewing required!
    You will need a base figure such as the Damtoys Drawman, a donor Fett for the armour such as MAFEX of Hasbro Black Series. You can also use the Bandai Model Kit or 3D printed parts. And some ready-made clothes (jumpsuit/shirt) which can be found on eBay (check out GPSlot).
    For the wired cape check out Iron Heart Customs:

    what the hyper-real line of toys could've been, but instead Hasbro gave us a metal skeleton wrapped in a condom.

    • @southp2470
      @southp2470  Год назад +4

      Agreed. Although that HyperReal line was also a strange scale.. like 8" which doesn't fit with anything else in the colleciton.

    Dude I been trying to make a dengar not realizing I can just dremmel the black series armor off and make the suit soft goods. Thanks for the inspiration!

    • @southp2470
      @southp2470  8 месяцев назад

      Yes! Dengar is on my to-do list as well. You really just need a dirty-white jumpsuit and glue the armour pieces back on top. Lots of dremmeling but quite simple project.

    The listed Ebay store no longer has the jump suits in Boba suit colors. What do you prefer then?

    • @southp2470
      @southp2470  5 месяцев назад +2

      Yes I have noticed this. There are other options in a darker blue and orange. Both could be painted with acrylic paint to match Boba's flight suit.

    Sir, let me start by saying that your custom star wars figures are all turning out stunning and your process is very inspiring 💯💯🔥🔥😎😎
    May I ask you a question.....can you possibly point me in the right direction as to where to pick up some of the materials used for your custom Boba Fett (from a few weeks back)......the materials in question are as follows
    1. The elastic straps for his kneepads and the material used for the crotch strap lol
    2. The material used for his pouches
    3. Which color of shit exactly were you using on this particular build
    I think that about covers everything I was curious about.....I appreciate you and your work, sir....thank you

    • @southp2470
      @southp2470  Год назад +1

      Thanks for the comment. The key thing for a lot of my projects is that I'm ALWAYS gathering accessories or clothing or parts for my next custom. The things like elastic straps are essential for these figures.
      1. For straps look on amazon for "flat elastic for sewing" and should be less than 1/4"
      2. Those pouches were actually from the Mezco Ghostbusters jumpsuit and I painted them the same colour.
      3. The shirt was grey and I touched it up every so slightly with a bit of blue paint. But getting that blue-grey colour for Boba's jumpsuit takes some trial and error. I'm sure if you look arond you may get an exact paint colour match.
      I hope this helps.

      I have one more question if you'll indulge me, sir....how many Ghostbusters suits were used inorder to make the pockets for this AMAZING custom?
      Any specific info on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you again for doing this figure in this way and also being willing to help, I really appreciate that!!

    There is, however, an abundance of bright yellow and neon orange 1/12 jumpsuits in case there's anyone out there looking to make a rave scene Boba Fett.

      If you're making one it'll cost you around $120. MAFEX Fett is $80, plus a Drawman is $25 and then the clothes were another $15-$20.
