I'm not a customizer. Anyone up here interested in what I think would be minor work for a good customizer? I want a figure of Peter Dinklage as he appears in his new film Cyrano. I think those with skills could easily adapt a Tyrion figure for this. Any takers?

Was the movie any good? I love Dinklage and the National, so I hope to check it out someday.
Are you looking for a Mego-style custom? Based on the pictures I have seen, his military uniform looks pretty involved. That would be challenging sewing. Plus, there is not a Tyrion figure in that scale to use as a base. I did some Game of Thrones customs using the Dark Horse statues, but it is not a straightforward conversion. -
No, doesn't have to be Mego--I was even thinking of just a repaint of one of the Funko action figures (just not my wheelhouse to make the painting look good).
The film is good--there are some uneven spots, but Dinklage owns every scene he is in, and I think Haley Bennett is a rising star. Full disclosure: I think Dinklage is one of the greatest actors of his generation, plus I love the play, so I went in biased but also with high expectations. I've taught Cyrano dozens of times, and while it doesn't necessarily need to be a musical (there have been several faltering attempts over the years), the score s good, and there are some good songs that are crafted to work around the strength of each performer (Bennett has a traditional musical style, and her ballads show off her voice; Dinklage basically speaks the text, but his bass is so powerful it works, plus it ties to Cyrano's preference not to show those true romantic feelings to others).Hugh H.
