Sideshow & Hot Toys Baby Yoda (The Child) mods and accessories!

[Soulinertia]

Trying to come up with a solution to have him hold the cup. Came up with this. His arms don't quit reach. I'll include these magnets and clip for anyone who has ordered

Nice mods - you're tempting me to do the same but I don't know if I have the intestinal fortitude to try. That said (not to hijack your thread) but you should check out the Welding Geek on YouTube. He came up with an interesting method to make the whole thing posable.

Cheers

Adam Savage's Mod Video: (The music when he starts cutting is hilarious, and his advance apology to Sideshow, seems maniacal hahah

Man seeing that video is really making me think combining the Sideshow head/hands with the HotToys body may be the best of both.

But expensive! Is there no-one around here who could brainstorm and do some kind of (relatively) cheap poseable body that just made use of the Sideshow head, hands and feet?

While all these mods are impressive, they're a little intimidating to those of us who can barely make a paper plane!

I like that he took it all the way up to the shoulders.

Looks like it wouldn't be easy to remove the hands and feet then install them on another body. Cutting them off and using wire for posing is probably the easiest.

My Razor Crest shifter knob came in from zenix It's much higher quality than the sideshow version. It's not magnetic, but a steel bolt can be threaded in. Slightly larger than the sideshow knob.

Looking at the Child made by Sideshow and the very good transfos made by some of our members...and then looking at the Child made by HotToys gave me an idea: why not placing the Sideshow's head (more accurate and no ear seams) to the more posable HotToys body?
I know, it means buying 2 expensive toys to achieve...the perfect Child

I thought about it, but decided against it.

I'll be posting some WIP pics here soon. This is a full body transplant.

Any idea how the child can hold the egg without it being magnetic mate?

Well, if you mod him then he can hold it like this:

It's also kind of squishy, so you might be able to force it between his fingers just enough to hold.

Anyone recognize what I used for the nucleus?
