137 Red ARC TroopersShipping is $45, but if no one bids against you, it would less than a dollar per trooper. So what if it's a kinda sucky older figure with no accessories, not even the belt-kama part that without which the figure looks goofy. Customized X-Wings I admire anyone who restores unappreciated shells of vehicles. I wonder how he made the canopies. Vintage Kenner Hoth LotI like this photo, the snowtrooper helping the AT-AT driver...for some reason.  Same seller has a vintage Jabba the Hutt lot that even includes the 80's Yak Face.

Was always tricky making those vintage figures look battle ready when they're all just in the same 'standing around waiting for something to happen' pose.
Those vintage X-wings are perfect Z-95's IMHO. I had a theory before the prequels came out, that the Clones would have Tie-Fighters with smaller wings just so Hasbro could reuse the old version.
As far as recreating the canopy, you can make an easy fix by just taking some clear plastic (like ones that come with MOC figures (particularly for the larger sets so you get a bigger piece to use) and just cut and bend to shape.
You can make better guns using pen parts. Heck, if you have one original gun, you can recast all the ones you need.

Recasting ain't cheap...or so people say. I know parts on ebay are waaay to high most of the time.
Pens as laser. I had an idea for a custom that would've used those, but I never did it. I might still, so I won't spoil it.

Seller is asking $75 for this lot. With $15 shipping.  Oh, yeah...sure. All their other lots are priced the same, regardless of how worthless the figures are. |

How does one acquire so many Ponda Bobas anyway?

One seller reenacted the famous cantina scene  Loki's punishment is being forced to serve drinks. Sandtroopers are oblivious to rebel commandos. Bail Organa himself went to find the droids. |

Attack of the Clones, from the Sand People camp.
The toy version came with a Geonosian first, later a Tusken Raider. IIRC, they were to appear on Geonosis but didn't...or maybe they did. I can't remember.
Only their jaw is poseable.
