So, what is CFW?...

CFW is short for CustomFigureWars, an online community designed for the adult action figure customizer, collector, and all around toy fan.  We offer a variety of features for every type of customizer, from beginners to veterans.  Some of the features CFW offers are: 

1. A "Live" chat box, viewable on every page, so you can discuss projects with other customizers in real time while you search the site. (Must be registered to the main site to view)   

2. The Black Market (our version of the classifieds), for those who want to advertise items of their choosing such as, but not limited to, customs, ebay auctions & loose fodder etc...

3. The Custom Showcase, designed to give your customs maximum exposure (upload a custom and it is immediately front paged)

4. The Fan Art Showcase for those who also like to paint, sculpt, and sketch (the roots of customizing) 

5. A showcase just for Tutorials & Recipes so we can help each other, and most importantly those who are new to the hobby.

6. The CFW Forum for the community to discuss all things action figure & more!  ** The forum requires a second registration with e-mail verification for security purposes**

And yes, everything mentioned above is free, all you have to do is sign up.  Here at CustomFigureWars we want to spread the hobby of customizing by bringing all custom sites & what they have to offer here for easy reference.  With your help we can generate more participation in contests & the hobby all together.

"What are you afraid of?" 

People like to ask me that, when they do, they have this knowing grin on their faces, as if they expect me to answer "nothing".

 I humor them most of the time because that's what they want me to say.

 "I'm not afraid of anything"

 Before I was given the greatest weapon in the universe, before I journeyed to the stars--

 --my dad gave me the power to do anything.

 He told me I could be whatever I wanted to be.

 

 

 Here is part one of my Hal Jordan special. Hope you guys like it. Feels nice to get back to customizing after all work and school.

 My inspiration for this one was simple, Hal Jordan before he became the green lantern. I've always had a thing for jets and being a pilot. It's not a coincidence that GL became my favorite comic book superhero to date. I purposely photographed this custom without showing the head because it just feels... right. I chopped the upper part of the bbi fig and combined it with the lower part of Matt Trakker. I also did the same with the 2 parts of the feet so that He'd have authentic looking boots. Comments are always welcome!

 

Recipe:

Head: BBI spec ops soldier

Torso: BBI spec ops soldier + 25th Matt Trakker

Arms: BBI Spec ops soldier & commando

Legs: Matt Trakker

Feet: Matt Trakker + BBI commando

Accessories: GI JOE and BBI parts

Helmet: BBI spec ops combined with custom fodder + sculpting
