Custom/Kitbash: Aurra Sing - Star Wars Bounty Hunter (Episode I)

I don't think I've ever noticed her fingers to be honest. Interesting.

This is AMAZING! I geeked out so much when she was in Phantom Menace. So much detail in your figure.  when she came out as a 3.75' figure I bought the Old school black card and the Clone Wars 3d shades card back versions. I hope she shows up in the Manalorian show. Are you going to make Hondo or Embo from the Clone Wars series?

Thanks for the compliment. As far as Hondo and Embo... I’m afraid I have no idea who they are, I’ve never actually watched The Clone Wars. I only recently saw images of Aurra Sing and thought she looked cool enough to add to my Jabba display — didn’t really know anything about her, other than pictures (and a lot of those were of cosplayers), and that she was a bounty hunter. I’ll have to Google those other two just to see who they are.

Hondo is incredibly entertaining to watch, if nothing else

Great job! I've been after one of those white Phicen bodies for ages now, my poor Aurra has been stuck in a draw with loads of new parts waiting for a seamless body.

Ahhh, Hondo! Hondo is a Weequay space pirate....and absolutely hilarious. Great character. :'D I have the little 3.75" figures of him and Aurra from the TCW collection.

And yeah.... the Lady Death body really does work surprising well here. Even makes me reconsider possibly using it at some point. : )

Thanks, Alex, and good luck in your search for a LD body — I gave up trying to find one loose and just broke down one of the two LD’s that I had (version 1). I was a little dismayed about using this body at first, but with the slightly bigger Hasbro head, I think the beafier muscle body works to balance it out.

I think you could get away with using it for Ventress — about the only real detractor is the bust, but with the tight outfit, those can be squished down somewhat.

Yeah, definitely!

She came out awesome!!!! The head works perfectly, and I think the more muscular body fills out the suit nicely. Super cool man.

Thanks, Rev. Appreciate it. The funny thing is, the suit was supposed to go all the way up to her neck, but the bust made it impossible. Worked out great in that regard.

As for the hands, do you have another pair of white ones? If you do you can just cut the tips off these ones you're using now and super glue the entire length of the other pair's fingers (cut off near their base knuckles) to the now flat tips on these hands. Does she have 6 fingers too? Can't remember.

That’s a brilliant idea! As far as I can tell she only has five, including a really long thumb.

Aurra looks great, the proportions are just right.
Where is the orange suit from?

Thanks.

The orange body suit is one of the old Triad Toys ones that blackpool found loose on Machinegun.fr. It originally looked like this (obviously in orange):



I had to cut off the sleeves, but thanks to the size of the body I used and the... ahh... bust size... I didn't have to do any further cutting to make the neck line. That thing is stretched so taut, I'm amazed it hasn't torn.

You did a great job with it -- I really love this figure. <3 

Regarding bodysuits, there are some sleeveless ones from VSToys[?] still floating around on ebay. No orange colour, but if someone is feeling adventurous, you could always try painting/dyeing the plain white one.

Oh that's pretty good, I bought Aurra Sing's clothes some years ago for the parts, never really found a complete figure of her but at the same time I stopped looking. I also feel I should at least warn you, It might be because of my climate and because I don't have AC but the my vest's leathery covering pealed off, maybe you will be luckier and able to keep it from doing that tho.

Ive been fortunate in that none of my figures have had the issues of many others. My basement Man-Cave is blacked out from sunlight, and has the same ambient temperature and humidity level all year round. It definitely helps to preserve this fragile stuff, that’s for sure.
