After messing around with my Stormtrooper for a couple days I realized that a Luke Skywalker Stormtrooper could still be a long way off. I started to panic... I freaked!!! I grabbed my dremmel and got to grinding. I bored the neck hole on the Luke Skywalker head to fit the Stormtrooper peg. I covered the ball joint in baby powder and blew the excess off then filled Luke's head with hot glue. I pressed them together and within minutes I had a tight functional custom ball joint... Good as bought.

Very nice. Is it possible to make the Stormtrooper head hollow so it can slip over the Luke head or is it too small?

I have an old Epic 6" trooper head from an abandoned custom I may try it out ans see it if fits. last resort would be to resculpt a new back side of the head so he could acutally fit but I just had a short eye spasm thinking of how that could go wrong... Hate to waste materials on worthwhile projects.

That's a shame. It doesn't really hurt the custom but the feature would've been nice.

Very nice! Han Solo next?
I was wondering why these hadn't hit shelves yet. |
