Custom #: | 32504 | Name: | Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith | Custom Type: | Action Figure | Toy Series: | Marvel Legends | Creator: | BotCustoms  | Date Added: | September 5, 2011 | Base Figure: | Mr. Sinister | Height: | 7.00 inches |
I sanded down Sinister's boots, removed the hands, inserted DCUC neck balls in to the wrists. Cut hands off of a McFarlane Spawn junk figure, drilled holes in to the hands and attached them to the balls of the neck giving him fairly realistic wrist articulation. I sculpted the chest armor and "light brite" panel. I sculpted the belt and buckle. I sculpted the tops of the gloves. I sanded down Sinister's head in to a peg, maintaining the neck articulation. I removed and drilled a hole in to the head of an Epic Force Darth Vader figure then glued the Sinister head peg in to the helmet.Vader has full neck articulation just like Sinister had. I considered making the helmet removable, but had to pass on that plan for this time around. I cut and repainted the lightsaber from the epic force Vader's hand. Dyed him in Ritt Dye for 2 hours in hot water. Rinsed him for a long time under warm water then cold water until dye stopped coming off. Dyed him for another half hour and rinsed again. Painted a lot of black. Clear coated with a gloss coat. Made Luke, too.   Please wait... |
