I saw some Convention photos and the Hasbro staff made some customs...has anyone on here tried with the 25th? How does it Compare to the ARAH and Nu-Sculpt?

I've seen some of the customs and they looked really good. HOW they did it, I have no idea. But seeing how the sculptors that have tools we don't, they probably had an easier time than us just doing head swaps or leg changes. *shrug*

I liked that Alley Viper a lot and iirc, there was a Leatherneck custom too.

maybe this will help. ive been waiting for someone else to try it first. if you do, let me know how easy it is.

Anyone else remember what Hasbro was saying about customizing shortly before the 25th figures came out? People were asking if the new design would allow for it and Hasbro said something along the lines if "We're aware of how popular it is among fans to customize characters and we're happy to be able to say that the design of the new figures will lend them to even greater possibilities."

It's like they got all excied about how many more separate parts would make up each figure but ignored the fact that a lot of the would require boil-&-pop or ripping apart glued-together seams.

Those "custom" figures by the Hasbro employees they've showcased come across to me as more of a tease, saying "look what we could do with the line even by reusing a bunch of parts if we get that far, come on, buy our stuff" rather than "look what the customizing possibilities are for everyone."
