I would have, but since this is a brassoed torso, the original wouldn't let it happen. :( -Omi

I meant in terms of like helmets and torsos. That is what I thought you meant. But sharpies, sandpaper and knives is a good way to get started. -Omi

Aya Brea is the protagonist of the Parasite Eve series, which is a survival horror video game series produced my Square-Enix. The fig is based on her appearance in The 3rd Birthday, the third installment in the series. Reference Brassoed the torso and legs, and modified the legs to give them the ripped look. -Omi

I personally didn't know him on the forums, but I have seen him around here. Seeing and knowing the dedication he has put forth towards the site and the support he has recieved, it is never the same when someone like that is no longer around. My condolences to friends and family. May he rest in peace. -Omi

I'm curious as to how you are going to make the customs without buying/acquiring the needed parts for it. -Omi

Reminiscent of LEGO's Collectible Minifigs, CustomMinifigs.com is a joint project between professional customizors Shmails and Armothe. Each fig is special and unique in that Shmails personally designs each one and Armothe arms them with BrickForge weapons and accessories. Presentation Each minifig is packaged in a medium-sized, ziploc baggie with a card insert. The front of the card insert features the CM.com logo and is designed to have the minifig displayed in the middle. The back of the card insert is a brief rundown of the advisory and also explains that each fig is made from LEGO with custom additions by Shmails and Armothe. So in other words: 100% high quality. And now onto the minifigs..... White Storm - Ninja Click thumb to enlarge White Storm is, well, a white ninja armed with some deadly gear. While he may look like some G.I. Joe reject, this guy kill his best friend for the right price. Perfect addition for your Ninja MOCs and Ninjago sets. He also makes a perfect soldier for frozen tundra combat. Features: - Custom head decal (waterslide) - Custom torso decal (waterslide) - Dark Bluish-Gray Bow - Dark Bluish-Gray Sickle - Dark Bluish-Gray Hooksword - Dark Bluish-Gray Sai - White Utility Belt Price: $20.00 USD Star League - Constable Click thumb to enlarge This guy reminds me of the Classic Space minifigs, but brings a more "rebooted" look to it. Taking over where the Space Police left off, he sets out to bring order across the galaxy while making quick stops for donuts. Perfect addition for Space MOCs, specifically Classic Space and Space Police. Features: - Custom Torso Decals (front and back) - Custom Arm Decals - Dark Blue MegaGun - Trans-Blue Phaser - White Gunbelt - White Headlamp Price: $22.00 USD Umbaladesi - Medicine Man Click thumb to enlarge This figure I find to be interesting. His design is to show that his body is painted white, and scary to boot. Only problem I find is the hair, as it doesn't really suit him IMO. Perfect addition for Pirate/Islander and Adventurer MOCs as well as great additions to Indiana Jones and the upcoming Pirates of the Carribean sets. Features: - Custom Head Decal - Custom Torso Decal - Custom Arm Decals - Black Hero hair - Dark Bluish-Gray Tribal Spear - Dark Bluish-Gray Tribal Sword Price: $22.00 Zoran the Great - Gladiator Click thumb to enlarge Beneath all that equipment is a muscular man of greatness (hence Zoran the Great). Thrown into the arenas to take on Russell Crowe and tigers, this guy could probably take you down with one swift kick to the legs. While there is no Lego Roman themes, he is a perfect addition for any Castle factions. Features: - Custom Torso Decals (front and back) - Custom Arms Decals - Dark Gray Gladiator Mask and Helmet - Dark Gray Trident - Black Bandolier - Black Battle Shield - Black Scourge Price: $22.00 USD Judge- Marine Click thumb to enlarge Not sure why he is called Judge, since I do not play Hal.... erm I mean Space Marines. Armed with a gun and sword of plasma varieties, he will take down alien scum before you run outta gum. Perfect for fans of the Halo series. Features: - Custom Arm Decals - Custom Leg Decals - Black Space Marine Helmet w/ Bronze Visor - Black Space Marine Armor - Gray Plasma Blaster - Trans-Neon Green Power Blade Price: $26.00 Anthole Click thumbs to enlarge Anthole is that really gnarly band you like listening to on your ipod. Playing music while drinking and partying is what they do best. And did I mention they have sexy, British accents? Yeah the ladies are all over these guys. Bruno - Singer Nigel - Guitarist Bulldog - Drummer Features: - Custom torso decals (All) - Red Maverick Hair (Bruno) - Gray Microphone (Bruno) - Green Hero Hair (Nigel) - White Guitar w/ Print (Nigel) - Blue Mohawk (Bulldog) - Red & Blue Drumsticks (Bulldog Price: 16.00 USD (Each) Overall These figs are one of a kind, and definately not something to pass up on. They each can make great additions to your collection display on your shelf at home or on the desk at the office. While they utilize waterslide decals, they can still be used for MOCs and vignettes as long as you don't throw them around, as they are meant for display and not rough play. I do like all the figs, but my personal favorites are White Storm, Star League, and Nigel. And if you are that bold customizor, you can take them apart and use the pieces in your own creations. Nigel, for one, has that glowing, green skeletal torso, which can be used for anything like Blight from Batman Beyond or some fig getting an x-ray at the hospital. So many uses here. One thing I would like to touch base with and that is the price. Yes they are not cheap. Anything that is handmade and personally designed usually comes at a price, and that is what most people do not realize when it comes to anything these days. However let me tell you this, it is worth it in the end and keep in mind that LEGO itself isn't cheap either. More awesome figs will be made in the future, so keep an eye out for them!

Belville and Harry Potter sets respectively. -Omi

I was waiting for Earl to introduce himself as Cid. :P Clever Shiva BTW. :) -Omi

In MGS4, Meryl Silverburgh was the commanding officer of Rat Patrol Team 01 of the CID and became involved in a secret operation to capture Liquid Ocelot. Johnny Sasaki, nicknamed Akiba by his comrades in Rat Patrol 01, was a U.S. Army soldier, and sometimes mercenary, who participated in the events of Liquid Ocelot's Insurrection. Meryl reference Johnny reference *Vests and gunbelts are Sidan Toys *Guns are BrickArms *Meryl's hair is Arealight *Meryl's head is Christo -Omi

I always compare prices between stores and I always try to look for a store within the US if possible (so it ships quicker). I do buy outside the US if needed. I always look for stores with its Minimum Buy at none or a low price. If I need more than one piece, I will always look for a store that has them together, even if I have to pay a bit more (and its tougt sometimes finding that store). I been shopping on Bricklink for years, and I magical with it. Although when I do shop, I always add something to my cart if I think it is neat, even if I don't need the part. Cuz sooner or later, I will need that part. -Omi

The logo is, yes, but the word isn't due to the common use and plus it being another word for other things, like say cocaine? That's like how Nintendo pulling that whole registered "It's on like Donkey Kong", despite the fact that it was a common saying for 20 years. Yeah they did it, but yanno. Anyways can we just agree to disagree? Coke means soda. Soda means coke. :P -Omi

"Coke may refer to: Coca-Cola, a soft drink originally based on coca leaf extract The Coca-Cola Company, makers of this drink Cola, any soft drink similar to Coca-Cola Soft drink, any non-alcoholic carbonated beverage" "A soft drink (also referred to as soda, soda pop, pop, cold drink, carbonated beverage, tonic, coke, or fizzy drink)" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_drink Also note the words "often referred". It means Coke is not it's actual name nor brand. I'm not gonna argue this any further. Well umm, I sometimes say Legos. But it usually slips out since I been saying it a lot when I was younger. :P -Omi

But it is the issue at hand like with "legos" or "Lego". Coke isn't the name of the brand. It is Coca-Cola, like LEGO. The term coke, originally referring to Coca-Cola back in the day, now refers to any soft drink. Plus Coke isn't a registered name under Coca-Cola, otherwise they'd be having weird complaints concerning cocaine and all that crap. But doesn't really matter anyways. -Omi

Oh I know. And that could attribute to the fact that the CC company is in Georgia. Kinda like how people in Denmark don't say Legos. :P It's just one of those little stupid things that can be one or the other. I know I get Pepsi either way whenever I order a coke without them asking me. -Omi

Actually the term coke is pretty universal and can refer to any soft drink, including Coca-Cola (the actual brand name) and Pepsi. -Omi

I can definitely make that happen. And I do have more MGS figs in my flickr. :) -Omi

And plus we all need to consider that Rumors =/= Facts. -Omi

It is great the company points it out for those are are unaware. All in all, I'm not anal about it. I have enough things in life to worry about and Legos isn't one of them. -Omi

Solid Snake, or rather Old Snake, based on his appearance (particularly his Shadow Moses and Outer Haven wear) in Metal Gear Solid 4. Reference *Headband is composed of the BrickForge Headlamp and Double Plume. *Hair is BrickForge *Gunbelt and handgun (not visible) is Sidan Toys *Vest is Amazing Armory *M4 is BrickArms Enjoy! -Omi

Took the words right out of my mouth. -Omi

Excellent SNOT all around. -Omi

Saber-Scorpion offers excellent decals for Assassin's Creed. Little Legends also made their own fig. There store is currently closed but they reopen next week. They may or may not still have the fig in their inventory. Also if you run a search for Assassins Creed, Altair, or Ezio on Brickshelf, you will find some decal galleries. While they are made for personal use, make sure you do give credit if you publish your fig. -Omi

That's the problem right there. You won't be able to make a purist version of either of them. White hoods don't exist, and there is no torso around that is well enough to match. You would have to paint a hood white and get decals if you really want these figs to come to fruition. -Omi

I know he has changed names in the past, and currently his store is closed. -Omi

Thank you. :) And for your reuqest: -Omi
