Anyone doing custom KREO designs?

Is anyone currently doing custom Kreo style fronts to customize the figures? I was about to go hunting but thought I should ask here first.

Holy crap. Looks like we're just a tiny fan group compared to the Lego minifig customizing community. Check out the resources from this page.

Custom guns, gear, everything. This has the potential to get addictive... and expensive.

Will those work on the Kre-O torso? I don't have any Lego minifigs to do a comparison so I don't know if they are the same shape and size or not.

Like chad said, I've designed torsos for steeler, zap, short-fuze, and storm shadow v2. Did a test run with J-man and have to adjust some colors. Hope to send him new art early next week.

They are the same size, but Kreo is more square and less "trapizoidal" than a lego minifig. All the gear will work too, as the neckpegs and hand sizes are standardized.

I am looking to create a bat army out of the $2 kreo transformers that they have at the local dollar store, so I am willing to trim down the stickers if need be.

Still, looking at all that cool stuff... I feel the addiction rising...

I've gone a little nutty making custom Kre-os. I got some of those tosro decals from birdman as well as ordered weapons from some of the places Roguetiger listed.

Damn. That is most impressive.

Don't suppose you have a scan or clear picture of a viper chest, or a night viper chest?

I did one custom Kreon but I was so unhappy with the paint work I stopped. I wish I could have used a sticker or decal for the chest instead.

Check shapeways. There are a fair amount of Kreo conversion kits and accessories. I don't collect KREO but I saw a , what id describe as a mech suit , that makes your keep fully articulated and slightly taller amongst other things.

The Lego and Kreo figures torso and heads are shaped differently, the decals would not work satisfactorily on the Kreo figs.
