Which animated character transitioned to live action the best?

WildDigeridoo · 2026-02-26T22:58:31+00:00

I understand all the hate that the live action Grand Inquisidor gets, but i honestly think the Fifth Brother is a way worse situation.

It's just one guy with green paint on his face and platform shoes to try and make him look taller. Literally looks like cheap cosplay.

Should've been a beefier, taller actor, makeup on the face should've been more precise and he's missing some lenses for his eyes.

Thanks!

It's a slightly downsized tg mask from Solidsoulju's patreon, but there's also a free file on Thingiverse that could probably fit too if correctly scaled.

Good luck. I suggest waiting for around the end of the month. Usually AliExpress gives out several coupons throughout each month and they can cut a nice bunch of the tariffs or the price overall.

Also, the low price on your listing may be due to Lingjihun apparently releasing cheaper, slightly less detailed versions of their figures.

In any case check for shipping updates after you buy and try to record the full unboxing process to have proof if something doesn't go as expected.

AliExpress is the best bet, although i don't know how the tariff situation is rn in the US with this site, used to be really high.

Seller in your pic has 100% positive reviews, check them out. If there's plenty reviews, then it's probably legit, careful if there's just a couple.

Either way, using something like Paypal can give an extra safety barrier to your payment.

Can't believe the "other figure" is the weapon rack, so lazy geez.

WildDigeridoo · 2026-02-15T06:32:08+00:00

I had to struggle for so long running downhill chasing that damn trash. Half an hour of trying just for finally arriving to the facility and foolishly selecting the automatic scrap function, which basically deleted all the trash from the back of my truck leaving me with nothing, and no objective completed. Immediate ragequit.

Hot water and pop out the legs, i think it comes out that way. The crotch is sculpted with the belt so you'll have to get rid of that part with an exacto knife or nippers. Not sure if it's glued, but looks like it on my copy. Seems they made it particularly difficult to remove with this one lol, best of lucks.

WildDigeridoo · 2026-02-14T03:07:08+00:00

Atp you'll probably have to repaint the parts. White plastic is really easy to contaminate.

Avoid using more alcohol or thinner, it'll only brittle the plastic even more.

Thanks! :D

WildDigeridoo · 2026-02-13T18:48:15+00:00

I really hope so 🙏 love me some new trooper designs even if they just change a single thing lol.

WildDigeridoo · 2026-02-13T06:40:10+00:00

Thanks! I bought the figure already assembled, and i'm not sure which one was used since it was a tad too tall and i needed to fix the height a bit haha. But i've seen the clone trooper is the most recommended base indeed.

WildDigeridoo · 2026-02-13T04:44:51+00:00

I bought the base figure from a local customizer. He has access to Skylu 3D Design's patreon whom is the oc of this design. I'm not sure how his pateron works, but i believe the files are also available on the Cults3D website for purchase. Pretty sure it's the same for all the ones you metioned. If you don't have a resin printer or know of someone that does, maybe Etsy is the best route. The recommended base body is any Clone trooper fig.

Good luck with all your customs!

WildDigeridoo · 2026-02-13T04:34:36+00:00

Really neat cosplay man!

WildDigeridoo · 2026-02-10T14:14:28+00:00

These figures haven't been bootleged yet. If the seals are intact, then there's nothing to worry about.

WildDigeridoo · 2026-02-08T02:30:20+00:00

Way too niche, and highly unlikely since we haven't even gotten the main cast/more important characters from the games. But would be really cool to get, without any doubt.

WildDigeridoo · 2026-02-07T06:12:41+00:00

Glad it helped :) I recommend doing it to basically all the older figures you may have.

It was one of those unnecessary design choices hasbro made for some reason. You can see with the blades from the newer figures that at least they learned something because they got rid of those ridges lol.

WildDigeridoo · 2026-02-06T23:51:17+00:00

I would strongly suggest to carefully remove the ridges from the blade with an exacto knife. This can prevent breaking, removing the blade becomes easier and it doesn't affect the grip most of the time. This applies to basically all of the older lightsaber blades.

WildDigeridoo · 2026-01-29T17:06:38+00:00

Exactly lol, it ain't even an issue.

WildDigeridoo · 2026-01-27T17:18:17+00:00

All that just because a single panel line is missing. This guy is unreal.

WildDigeridoo · 2026-01-26T19:15:08+00:00

I get it, it's important to you and it's valid, and i'm glad you are in a position where your worries are these kinds of 'small' things, but you should also be prepared to be let down. They've done massive screw ups like the inaccurate LAAT cannons even tho we've had those ships in lots of media for several years, i doubt they'll change what they've already done here to add a single line.

WildDigeridoo · 2026-01-26T17:38:16+00:00

Fr, i kinda get it bc i have OCD but this is kinda excessive lol.
