Brett Bartniks shares his latest custom collectible. Thanks for sharing this with us!
I took a Star Wars Rogue One Captain Cassian Andor nerf gun and painted it to look like his real blaster from the movie. I also painted the nerf darts and then custom cut and painted a Rebel logo as a base for the blaster and darts. The blaster sits perfectly on the base and the darts are held with screws. They can be taking off to use in the blaster.
Yodasnews reader, Brett, sent in pictures of his customized 20″ Jakks Pacific K2-SO.
“I just finished my most recent custom figure in K2-SO from Rogue One. I did some dremel work to his legs and arms, I gave him a custom paint job, make a custom wood base with sand to look like a scene from the movie and the best part is I put a battery pack inside his body attached to a led light in his head so his eyes would light up. There is an on/off switch on his back. It also has easy access to change out the batteries when needed. Hope everyone enjoys.”

I bought the figure for $5 then proceeded to weather it. I them built my own base for the figure to look like a scene from Dagobah in Empire Strikes back. I will be customizing more figures and making more scenes from the movies. The cost was between $5-$10.

Hey fellow Star Wars geeks! Are you guys amped and ready to see Rogue One?
We’re so hyped about it, we made a special song about it that we want to share with all our Jedi and Sith friends.

A long time ago, before the Rebels had it figured out… Admiral Ackbar & Mon Mothma led the first attacks against the Empire. With the newly completed Death Star & fleets of AT-ATs closing in, the Rebellion knew that they must act fast, using every trick they know to save the Galaxy!

Nearly two decades after the release of Star Wars: Episode I, Star Wars fans still heatedly debate the merits and the shortcomings of the controversial prequel films that brought to the world Jar Jar Binks, Darth Maul, midichlorians, and a purple lightsaber.
Unsure what to make of the films, a Star Wars fan treks across country interviewing dozens in search of answers. Are the prequel films masterpiece or disaster? Is George Lucas an inconsistent hack or a champion of a singular vision? And most important of all, is there a way to bring balance to the dark and light sides of fandom? As our hero discovers, much to learn, he still has.
The Prequels Strike Back was made possible through the generous contributions of time and money from fans all across the world. What resulted was a documentary that Star Wars fans deserved.

The Star Wars universe is expanding its cinematic reach, giving us stories like Rogue One and the upcoming Han Solo standalone film. While we know next to nothing about the Han Solo movie (apart from the actor who will be bringing young Solo and his pals Chewie and Lando Calrissian to life), Rogue One looks fantastic. So for the time being, everyone seems cautiously optimistic about the universe expanding in films.
However, there is one obvious place for the Star Wars films to go that hasn’t yet been announced, and that’s telling Obi-Wan Kenobi’s story. It seems like a no-brainer. Obi-Wan is a well-loved character with a pretty fascinating backstory, and unlike characters like Han, Lando, Luke, or Leia, a younger actor doesn’t have to be cast to play Obi-Wan. We’ve got Ewan McGregor who, regardless of your feelings about Episodes I through III, did a great job portraying the enigmatic Jedi.
Star Wars fan Rich Williamson decided that Obi-Wan’s story needed to be told, and decided to create a fabulous trailer for an Obi-Wan movie. Though it isn’t explicitly stated, the trailer makes it seem that Williamson’s film would focus on the Jedi between the events of Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. Take a peek:
