Default Any Star Wars TOY fans out there???

TG brought this up the other day and man, he got no answers. We know there are MILLIONS of SW toy fanatics. Surely, a few of 'em have to be doing their own dios. BUT where are they? Anybody know any dio sites?

You gotta figure that GI Joe has a few database sites, fanficition sites, customs, and of course, HERE. Yet, where are the SW sites??? Or does Lucas have a tight reign on the sites out there?

I've never done a SW dio but I've done a few shots that could act like one. *shrug* JoeSightings.com has a SW section on their forums but you gotta host your own pics and well, throwing a dio in a post isn't very neat. Anybody? Anybody???

Nyub Nyub's site, but last I checked he hadn't updated in some time. His dios are all attempts to recapture the movie scenes. That's a limitation of Star Wars or its fans, I guess. The movie canon is all that matters for some people.

I've seen a decent amount of customs.

A fair amount of Star Wars toy collectors are Mint in Package types. In fact, collecting the sheer amount of stuff seems to be focus of SW message board posters. There's a few who show off Imperial and Clone armies.

Me, I'm one.

But as far as poseability and playability go, yo joe!

I am a BIG SW collector. But I still love Joes better. I have more SW than Joes! I wish that there was a site for SW dios. Maybe this site could have a small SW gallery. Since there both hasbro. I want to this one site where people made custom clone troopers and they were amazing! But its not a dio site.

Rebelscum has a dio story section, but they call them “Photonovels”. Instead of word balloons the dialogue is posted underneath each pic, though a few people do use word balloons. They’re not nearly as good as most dio stories though, for some reason not many people spend much time making sets or custom figures, they just “use their imagination” and pretend that that Luke figure isn’t actually Luke. Meh, I’ve been spoiled by the Joe community.
