Narnia Custom Action figures

Hey all, I have been working on quite a few custom Narnian action figures that we likely to never see produced by a toy company.

One of the things I have wanted to make is the Pevensies in school clothes, but I have been looking for the right base. It looks like the Harry Potter figures by Popco in the link below might work, with only a head swap and some paint. Does anyone happen to have some of the PC figures and these HP figures? If so, could you size them up and let us know how it would look?

I would also like to do the Pevensies in their LWW furs. I have been eyeing the fur-adorned figures in the Golden Compass for this purpose.

It has taken a while, but I have finally acted on this originally plan and found some of the UK Harry Potter line.

I do intend to do some painting and match up the colors to the colors ythe kids wore in the beginning of PC.

In addition to custom figures, I like to supplement my Narnia stuff with animal figurines from various toylines.

A new Beaver figurine has been released from the company Papo. It looks amazing as a stand in for Mr. Beaver (and Mrs. Beaver). This is available on ebay under a simple search of "Papo Beaver". I was also available to find it at a local hobby shop in Minneapolis.

That beaver looks a lot like the beavers on my Japanese "Mr. & Mrs. Beaver with tray" statue. ;)
