I spied a failed custom attempt behind the counter of my LCS today, and she was in bad shape when I saw her. She had a torn knee joint in her left knee (which was a common QC issue with this set) was missing her weapon and hands, and the facial features on the head had been wiped clean with acetone in an attempt to repaint the face as the former owner told me that her lips and eyes were printed a bit off on the figure. Sensing an opportunity, I asked if I could attempt to restore it. He offered to sell the fodder body and whatever parts were left to me, and since it was a broken and incomplete version of the original SDCC figure, I was able to haggle the price down to about 35 bucks.

I got home and immediately went to work on her, and here she is! I replaced the knee joints in both legs, replaced her missing hands with those from the 2 pack Black Widow, and ditched the acetone bleached head in favor of the newer, much better painted Cindy Moon...with some added purple and black drybrushing for texture. Just need to get her a psychic sword, and she'll be complete! I have made no other alterations as I really want her to be as close to the original SDCC figure as I can go, without dropping a fortune on the actual fgure, and I'm really happy with how this essentially kitbashed result turned out. I FINALLY have my unicorn!
