Custom Santa Yoda!


A long long time ago, in this very galaxy, when SW 3.75 inch figure were still affordable, I was inspired by a 1981 Xmas greeting card drawn by Ralph McQuarrie for Lucasfilm. It made me bought an extra Yoda figure to customized into Santa Yoda!

I used Tamiya's modeling putty, red & white paint. It was a very enjoyable custom excise! Now I wish I was still as passionate as I was back then in terms of customizing toys…

Recently Sideshow Collectibles announced they are making a Star Wars 1/6 scale Holiday Yoda (inspiration could only from that same art piece). & With the recent price of Sideshow releases as benchmark… "Cheap it will not be!"
