When I got my hands on a Wraith finally...I was disappointed, like many were as well. I got to thinking today, what could be done to spruce him up some.

So after some searching of parts, and finally deciding to forgo the hip articulation, I came up with the biggest mish mash of parts I ever have put together.

Torso, upper arms, crotch and upper legs are SW Death Star Trooper. The lower legs are clone troopers, and the for arms are a CW line clone troopers. The arm guns are actually sleeves that fit over the forearms, which by the way, are Snake Eyes'.

He need a lot of paint, and a lot of weathering. I still need to add some random pieces to give him a bit more 'baggage.'

Questions, comments, thoughts so far?

I like that you tried to update Wraith but those legs make him look really stumpy.

I like the effort, but taking articulation away doesn't make a better figure in this case. I think the Joe upper body is too long for the short SW Lower. Also, I think it would help if he was repainted to tie everything together.

I agree with Jfak on taking away some of his articulation, but i guess we will have to wait and see what you do to him. :-/
