This was a fun one to make. Here is my 8-T Gardening Droid from Into The Dark (High Republic). They are described as “similar appearance to that of an astromech droid dome, with magnetic treads and pincer claws that the droids used for pruning plants.” I actually suspect the bottom tread portion should be smaller but I had this so went with it.
Since I started reading the new High Republic books I’ve been wanting to create a figure and finslly finished one (more on the way). I took inspiration from the concept art but went my own direction with it.

This one was fun. Continuing my love of random Star Wars aliens, here is my finished Beyghor Sahdett. Lots more WIP pics in the Beyghor Sahdett gallery.

I stumbled on these Final Faction sets at Dollar Tree the other day. For a buck a piece they are an excellent deal. I bought one of each, played around with them, then went back the next day and cleaned most of them out. Note that only one of three Dollar Trees I went to had these, but they are available online if you can’t find them locally. None of them had the figures these go with. I may pick up one each of those just for fun but they are 3.75″, so not my thing.
I am so impressed with the quality of these packs though! They are harder plastic than I have seen Dollar Tree use in the past and they feel great and are really well done. They aren’t thin or flimsy at all and high quality, believe it or not. I almost exclusively deal with Star Wars 6 inch figure customs, so I’m slanted toward that but many of these will also work with Marvel Legends, DC Multiverse, GI Joe, and other 6 inch figures. If you customize (or kitbash) AT ALL go pick these up. Maybe if we can show Dollar Tree there is a market for this, they will make more accessory packs like these!
Here’s a breakdown of each pack and what I found and experimented with:

For custom heads (and parts) for 6 inch figures. I am not vouching for any of these sites. Well, except https://www.outerrimtraders.com/. I have used them a number of times.
