As featured here previously, master customizer NickGreat continues his “Colors of the Samurai” with my favorite color — and favorite minifig so far (via Klocki):
(Wow, feels like I’ve been gone forever, but it’s only been a couple of days. My bookmark folder’s bursting at the seams, so I’ll do a few “roundup” posts tomorrow to catch up.)
Forum 0937 member rupi puts Chris Bragg‘s arm replacement technique to good use with Dr. Crow, a mad scientist.

The second, I call GoldenRed. I was really tired and couldn’t think of anything else…
Enjoy!
Well, just one wizard, but a whole horde of bone warriors from Moko.
