Custom Star Wars Sith Darth Sion 3 3/4" Figure by Mastercloner

Mastercloner is giving Star Wars fans a reason to add the word 'custom' in thier searches for Star Wars figures on eBay with his Custom Sith Darth Sion. While the Evolutions packs have added some strength in the Sith count, it is the custom Sith figures that keep fans coming back for more. From the artists rendering that I have seen, Mastercloner has done a very good job striking a balance between the concept and custom. Some of the artists renderings of Darth Sion I have seen look much more worse for the ware but Mastercloner's version may take place earlier in his history where he is much less battle scarred. The right arm that wields his lightsaber flows naturally into his pale white flesh and the crackled look that is applied to the body is very well done. Bid on Mastercloner's Custom Sith Darth Sion on eBay!

More about Darth Sion (souce: Wookiepedia.com)
When the factions of the Sith on Korriban turned on each other after Darth Malak's death and Revan's disappearance, Sion was one of the Sith Lords that escaped to the Unknown Regions of the galaxy. It seemed he had escaped to Malachor V, where he became the apprentice of Darth Traya, a former teacher of Darth Revan when he was a Jedi. For his benefit, Sion was a Sith Marauder. Sion was a uniquely powerful Sith Lord, having learned the ways of pain in the Trayus Academy on Malachor V. Torturing and killing others helped him enhance his strength in the Force, and his ability to feed on his own pain and hatred made him all but immortal; for if he were struck down, he could always arise by feeding on his agony. He was also a lightsaber master, and arguably the most infamous and deadly Sith Assassin of the era. Sion was known to be responsible for the deaths of countless Jedi during the shadow war waged by himself and Darth Nihilus. However, the alliance between Traya, Nihilus, and himself could not last forever. Sion and Nihilus attacked Darth Traya at the Trayus Core and as such, exiled her. Sion and Nihilus continued their shadow war by sending assassins after the last known "Jedi"—an exile who had served under Revan during the Mandalorian War.
