Plo-Koon and Clone Assassin

[Jasbrick]

I went into a toy store with my sons yesterday and he went mental over a new action figure of Plo-Koon with his lightsabre guantlet.... which got me thinking. I put the following together for his Birthday using a Brickarms U-clip clipped to Plo-koons arm and to a pair of binoculars. I think it works quite well and is the closest thing I get to 'purist':

To counteract this uncharacteristic puritanical behaviour I decided to create an Assassin Clone!:

Another view:

The vibro blade on his left arm is attached using the same technique and is actually a Brickarms bayonet (which I love). The pistol is TLC and the carbine is Little Armory (modified with flash suppressor).

I hope you like.... I am sure my son will.

Thanks... The clone assassin is just a combination of pieces with the exception of the helmet which I painted the image on.

Plo-Koon's concept sketches included this guantlet, and it seems that Hasbro or whoever does the action figures these days have also produced this.
