Thanks, I have seen her once before at a Belgian online store for SW loose and new figures. There she was offered for over 100 Euros.
The female stormtrooper body alone is really cool and not so easy to find.
Maybe I have to build 10-50 of the same special custom figure and send/release them all over the world. The image that your own creation is "floating around the world" sounds really cool.

She's a fun little bootleg that was manufactured afterhours at a factory that was known for producing knockoffs with legit molds. Sometimes they claim to be factory rejects, but there were a ton of these on ebay years ago, for around $10 a pop, if I recall correctly, so hopefully people aren't getting swindled thinking it's something rare or officially produced / released.
That Padme head looks great on the Stormtrooper body. Would look even better if the head cover was black.
Almost 10 years ago I did a Leia in Stormtrooper disguise using the Jes Stormtrooper figure….
I just imagined Leia getting tired of being the prisoner every time they infiltrate an Imperial base. Why should the guys get to have fun every time & not her. Uh maybe because a Stormtrooper with cleavage draws attention.
Although Leia as your prisoner would as well.
I also did a Rebel pilot version of her. I remember her wearing a pilot uniform in some of the early comics when she was flying a Y-wing.

Hello @Strobeeone!
Nice Leias! Today it's more difficult to find a female Stormtrooper body (and more difficult to find a female imperial pilot body).
Little Offtopic. What do you think about Leia's Legacy head that you have used for your customs?
Because I also built a alternative "heartless" Imperial Officer yesterday and today. In my view her Legacy head looks not 100% like Leia so I gave it a try.
Just picked up this lot through FB Marketplace for a great deal! I didn’t have most of them back in the day so it’s cool to have acquired them now. Really pumped for the Corran Horn pack, the Ugnaught (missing the console), and FX-6 which took forever to put together and is missing the small connected red tanks/hoses. Time to get more BAD parts!
My toddler took some of the stuff for himself, lol. The lot also came with these pieces, does anyone know what they might be from?

I just picked up a used BMF with box from a vintage toy store in Oklahoma City for $199. It’s missing a few parts (which I’ll start scouring eBay), but I feel like I got a good deal since it retailed for $159.99 back in 2008.
Very good day!
Quite the understatement!
That is amazing.

Haha thank you guys! Really a dream come true to finally own these! I saw them at a local shop over the weekend, brought some stuff there to trade for them today. I was really hoping they had the Darth Phobos set and I just missed it the first time but no luck. The Darth Phobos pack, TFU Rancor and Shaak Ti are next up on my TFU list.
The Bane and Nihilus are such cool figures, already ordered the necessary figures to kitbash a Darth Zannah to go with Bane

Some good acquisitions. The ‘Raxus Prime’ Galen (set 1) & Proxy are 2 of my favorite figures in the FU line.
Some pickups over the past couple weeks
Some more really good ones. Lord Maleval is one of those figures that is absolutely bonkers it exists. The answer to ‘what do you get when you cross Darth Maul with Squid Face’. Also Jes Gustang…. the first Stormtrooper since the 2004 Saga Stormtrooper to come with a ‘rack’.
Yeah I was doing my annual Legacy reread and just thought to myself "Why haven't I finally pulled the trigger on the rest of the figures? I've wanted them for more than a decade" I only had the Talon and Cade 2 pack. Now I just need the Deliah and Nihl one. Not looking forward to buying that one, its so pricey. Same thing with the T'ra Saa comic pack, that technically counts.Some more really good ones. Lord Maleval is one of those figures that is absolutely bonkers it exists.

I wish they had done more Legacy, I plan on making customs of at least Jariah, Azlyn, Marasiah and Darth Maladi.
There was a new Gentle Giant Jes Gistang statue that I was going to buy but with the whole Diamond thing who knows if that'll ever release
I finally did it and bit the bullet on the Legacy Collection Sarlaac Pitt set! A good Sarlaac was all I needed to complete my Barge/Jabba display. I was using a 3D printed one but having the real deal makes it so much cooler.
The price was decent. Especially compared to the $350-$500 listings I keep seeing for a packaged set. Getting it loose and complete was fine with me. I cannot wait to get it and set up all my figures around it.

Cool score. Looking back I can't believe how good we had it for this game!
Truly! Wish Jedi Fallen Order/Survivor got this much love in 3.75" form! The only thing I wish is that we got a downsized Rogue Shadow, even if it would've been something tiny like in the same realm as Maul's Interceptor, would've been a cool piece to own.
