Ooo, a chance to pad my post count!
These are the same pictures from the pre-crash board. I haven't been collecting Sideshow figures very long. I have a couple of the Bonds, and all the X-Files and Buffy figures so far. And the Civil War figures. I don't really bash and customize them--I don't think they are very good for that, at their normal price point so mostly I keep them stock. Most of the them are great right out of the box. On the other hand, if I think there's something that can be improved about a figure, I'll break out the Dremel lickity split. Before Sideshow, I bought a lot of Dragons, and still prefer them for bashing and customizing and creating my own stuff. Here are the Sideshow figures I have messed with:
X-Files - Repainted both heads. I like the other figures in the line as they came out of the box, so just these two.
Buffy - Repainted Buffy's eyes and gave her the shorter body from Vampire Willow, but made it even shorter (cut some of her thighs off). I repainted Faith's eyes and hair and also cut off about a half inch in height, but plan on making a new head altogether. Her long hair is what I'm stuck on with that. The Willow head I made myself. It's on a Dragon Eve (hence, the ugly neck, but I like the Eve figure's shape better and it's easier to use a custom head on it than the Cy Girls or the Sideshows with the neck valve--I bought some different sized rubber plumber washers so hopefully I'll be able to make a custom head that can go on the Sideshow body).
My latest Sideshow-related project is a Vampire Willow with a human face.
