Hi Everyone, Would like to try and get things moving here again! I will give one free Buffy line Funko figure to the first customizer who will customize it. Message me on the thread. Then, you can PM your info. You pay for shipping to you. I am in the US. I ask that you post the Custom here on the forum first. You can then do what you wish with it. Keep it, sell it, give it away.  This is one of my HOPE Day gifts in memory of my friend's sister HOPE. |

This is such a wonderful thing to do. These funko things have become such a craze. I wish I had the time to do this, sad to say a lot of my time now is eaten up at work and spending time with the wife.
HOPE someone will make the most of this wonderful gift and can't wait to see what someone can do with a funko figure as a custom.

I would like to keep the custom forum going. And it would be cool to have a custom in Hope's memory. But, I have FAITH that someone will step up soon. The HOPE drive goes until May 13. I would hate to fail. I would love to show her sister the custom some time. |

Hey humans!!! Okay so I got this amazing Buffy Pop figure from msperoxideluv! I was very excited to make something with this one and I thought I would share my progress along the way with you guys!!! I'm not gonna tell anyone what I'm making exactly, but it's going to stay Buffy. Let's make a guessing game! Here is the figure as I first got it! Love the boxes on these things!  Here she is out of her box! Front and back.   Okay right out of the box, brand new, and her hair is already coming up. I hope this doesn't become a problem down the road.  Anyway, I had to pop her head off, no pun intended. But seriously I had to get the head off so I could get to detail the body. I boiled some water on the stove. Then submerged her vinyl head in the water till it felt soft, then "Pop" the head came off.   Now here she is with out a head, poor Buffy.  I then pulled off her arm. So I could redo the dress.  Then I cut off the cross bow, because the finished project will not need it!  Okay that is all I have so far! I hope to finish her soon! Thanks again msperoxideluv for making this challenge possible!
Please leave a guess about what I'm doing with this POP! Have a great day guys! |

Really the possibility of what Buffy you choose could be endless.
If I were given this gift and wanted to continue a buffy figure the choices are endless and hard to pick from.
A wedding dress style buffy,
end of days buffy with a switch of a body.
Chosen buffy
A vampire variant buffy....
Can't wait to see the finish and which buffy you decide to go with.

Here we go.. How fun is this! I personally would love to see the Wedding Buffy.. But, it's not my call. So, you go Customizer452! Sorry about the hair.. Those POP's are really delicate (or poorly made LOL). Can't wait to see what's next!

All great guesses, one of you was kind of close. I won't say who! Let's keep the mystery going.
I wanted to give a little update. I've been a little behind on the figure. A lot's been going on, work, family, ext. But I did find the reference photos I needed and I hope to be making some progress on her this week! Thanks for the patients!
My next clue Is I will be sanding down her long skirt to make it a short skirt.
If you have anymore guess leave them below!!!

Okay so here is an update with photos! Sorry life has been crazy. Okay so I needed to sand down the skirt first, the end product is going to need a short skirt.  I ended up actually sectioning the skirt off, in order to cut it off.   I wasn't sure how the legs were going to re-act to the cutting, One I pulled off the extra part of the skirt the legs fell right off. But no fear I will re-attach them at a later time.  Next I sanded down the legs in order to make them two separate parts.    I'm actually surprised how good the legs turned out. LOL. I also polished the cut edge of the torso.  This is what we have so far!  I also pulled off the extra part of the hair that was falling off. I'm planning on fixing her hair anyway.   That's all I've got so far! Hopefully I'll be able to get more done soon! Keep on guessing! LOL |

Is it cheerleader buffy? Damn I know it's the mini skirt/dress with the line pattern and leather jacket I wanna say back in season 1. Can't recall the episode. But remember someone did a custom statue using the prem black dress vers. See ref image below dtsft.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/buffy-vampire-slayer-ft18.jpg |

Here is another update! Okay so I need to re-attach the legs to the shorter skirt. So it was a bit hallow, so I used some foil to filled the emptiness.  I then took two part apoxy sculpt and mixed them together, wearing gloves of course, because this stuff can be toxic to skin.  I filled the hallow skirt with the apoxy.  I then took the little legs and shoved them into the apoxy.  I then let it cure for 24 hours. I also used some of the apoxy to give the skirt and extra rufle!  More to come soon! |
