Make your own "Novelty Figures".

 I found this Toy Story "Bo Peep" figure at the dollar store. The last Toy Story film made Bo Peep, a gentle porcelain lamp decoration, into an action hero.  As the character's costume is cartoonized 1800s underwear this figure lends itself making to a Novelty figure similar to the old Phoenix Follies females.


Conversions were made with SPIERA artillery parts and "Green Stuff".



          
             Note the "womanly" hip thrust given to this kid's collectable. 




             Porcelaine arm repair from the story becomes a combat wound. 




                            Painted on Corset and US Belt. 


           Version two with torn dress and Union forage cap.






More to come.
