New Custom Tuesday – 3/9/2010

New Custom Tuesday is a weekly, creator submitted list of the latest custom action figures. This list provides a convenient way to check out all the latest custom creations posted in the galleries without having to search each individual thread.

For this week’s customs, read on!

This week’s featured custom is Lucid Silverback’s Bigfoot and Little Grey!

Bigfoot and Little Grey - Lucid Silverback

While I love DC and Marvel customs, it’s always nice to see a little variety in custom subject matter.  Cryptozoology seems like a great basis for a line of super articulated action figures.  It’s one of those fantasy lines that I daydream about getting in a super articulated form, (along with Samurais, Dinosaurs and Cowboys and other such things) so I was really happy to see these customs.  These guys make me think of those old ‘in search of’ tv shows.

Bigfoot!

The quality of these two customs is top notch.  I’m especially impressed with the sculpt on both head sculpts.  The fur on Sasquatch is mostly etched in with a dremel and accented with additional sculpted fur.  The overall effect is really nice and the paintjob sells it as fur nicely.  The eye paint job on Sasquatch is also very good – I feel like there is some life behind those eyes!  For more pics of these two and a host of other cool  customs of classic marvel characters, click one of the above pics for a link to Lucid’s thread in our custom gallery.

Here’s the rest of this week’s customs.  Lots of great figures this week.  Click the pics for links to the threads in our custom galleries and tell these guys what you think!
