I know, there's plenty of people out there repainting Xevoz figures - I'm one of them - but is there anyone out there actually making Xevoz customs? And when I say "customs," I mean in the traditional sense of creating an existing character from a figure. For instance, I can imagine someone making Marvel X-Men character Cyclops from Alpha Ranger - toss the small head, weapons and glyphs, cut off the part on the right side of the visor, somehow mold an X across the chest, and paint and remold liberally. There's plenty of Stikfas customs, after all...

i've never really made any customs. i've thought about it before, but i don't have the resources and probably wouldn't be satisfied with what i've created, so it'd be a waste for me. i do appreciate a good custom, though.

I second slift on making one and then not being happy with the results. I tried it before and all I saw was the same toy with paint on it.

Quick Slinger head, Sledge Trooper's Chainblade, work from there.... without saying anything further... Hail To The King, Baby. -HX

Maybe use the mummy one to make his arch nemesis, Bubba-Ho-Tep?
Oh Slift, There are paint markers that work great on the Xevoz for changing there colors. Kinda expensive, but they are called DecoColor. I made a stealth (black) Alpha Ranger and it worked out nicely.

that's good to know that the markers work. my brother had a lot of paints, but he just moved out... i was going to paint some sideburns and a little goatee on my sky grinder, but since i had no paints, i used tips of fire from different stickers. it turned out pretty well since his hair is red. i'll post pics sometime
