- I made a custom toy born from the fusion of two iconic worlds. Behold, the "Samurai Mando" action figure, a captivating blend of the Mandalorian and ancient samurai warrior. I found both the Mando and Yasuke Natsumaru figure on clearance and knew I had to do some kinda toy mashup.
In this unique toy mashup, the Mandalorian's blaster is paired alongside a fearsome samurai sword, embodying grace and lethal precision. The resulting fusion brings together the stoic presence of a samurai warrior with the enigmatic allure of a space bounty hunter.
Every detail of Samurai Mando has been crafted with passion and ingenuity, seamlessly blending the iconic elements of both characters into a single, awe-inspiring toy. As you hold Samurai Mando in your hands, prepare to embark on imaginary adventures that transcend time and space, where honor and courage intertwine with intergalactic battles and heroic quests.
This custom creation stands as a testament to the limitless possibilities of imagination and the incredible joy that can be derived from merging beloved characters. Samurai Mando is a testament to the boundless creativity that exists within the realm of toys, inspiring collectors and enthusiasts alike to celebrate the power of imagination and the magic of toy mashups.
I hope you enjoy this toy mashup video!
Thanks for visiting DR Toys, and as always...

One of my biggest concerns when kitbashing or modifying something is that I'm going to regret making a bad cut. You did a great job making everything fit together even though you found there could have been a "better" way to do it! Wonderful job!
That's the beauty of doing this, if you do make a bad cut just figure out a new solution. 😄
Your work also is good
@@00smash69 Thank you! I’m often inspired by DrToys and his vids have really helped me down the path of doing my own kitbash creations!
@@encouragingthings i want start the same thing is this work gonna give me sum views ?
@@00smash69 Someone out there will always want to watch people make things. It’s fun, cathartic, and helps give them their own ideas! There’s never a guarantee, but you’ll never know until you try.
❤❤ what a amazing beautiful build good job I am a big fan of the mandalorians you know what would have been cool take the armor off the Samurai helmet and place it on the Mandalorian helmet😊
So I actually cut that from my video... I spent about 45 min cutting the face off and trimming and sanding out the helmet and the fit just wasn't right. I looked around in my bits box to see if I had anything and the closest I came was a Gundam head piece but it wasn't quite right either. I'll be keeping an eye out for that perfect piece and will add it on when I find it. 😀
Thanks
Very cool! Loved seeing how the paint tied it all together at the end 👍🏻
great job
Very cool 👍👍
Sweet! 🔥
This is a great build! Gotta love it when things fit together with ease
My two cents for this build specifically would be that i honestly feel like if you found a way to add (parts of) the samurai helmet to the Mando helmet it would've made it especially perfect as the mando helmet on it's own kind of looks too clean or maybe even a bit bland compared to the ridges and shapes that the shoulder pads and leg armor added to the entire silhouette.
I agree 100%.

This is the Way!
Solid job and overall design together.
This turned out great!
Really cool...turned out sweet.
The figure conversion looks great Dave! I like the details you added the color looks neat. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks!
Fantastic job.
Another great one, sir.
it looks so cool i think it will look better with a soft goods cape
I think so too. Great idea, thanks.
Looks great.
That was pretty cool man
Great job, looks spectacular!!
Big fan of your channel keep up the great work!!
Thanks so much!
This came together really nicely. I like the little sculpted details you added to the legs.
Thanks.
That is very cool! Take my money, please!!!
😅
Samurandalorian, cool!
😀 Thanks.
Wicked cool! I can see Hasbro or some big toy company kicking themselves why didn't we think of that. Absolutely beautiful and inspiring.
There is a ronin mandalorian figure out there already.
Thanks. I think SH Figurearts did something like this but they're pricey... Under $5 for mine! 😅
@DR Toys - Custom Toys oh yes i was just telling the other user. Love your content. Keep it up.
Really great fit style wise!
I bought the two at separate times, so I lucked out when the body types matched up so perfectly. You gotta love it when that happens!
@@DRToysCreations and you gave yourself the added challenge by cutting off the arms too 😂
@@BPCustomCreations I like to make things as complicated as possible! LOL
Awesome 👏🏻
🙌
Nice mashup. Came out looking great.
Thanks
Just Woaw !!!
😃Thanks
Awesome job 👍👍👍👍
this is pretty cool build, reminds me of those artworks that are around online
first of all I really like, second maybe the blade should be black? idk
To expand on the hot glue technique (as it is one I often use for one-off customs like this) if you care to hear it: I like to coat the joint with vegetable oil (just a thin coat with a cheap paint brush) to ensure that the hot glue won't bond to it and that it will be able to rotate freely. For a really strong connection, use a screw as the joint with which to place in the hot glue socket. Any screw with a head will do, but my favorite type of screws to use (at least for smaller figures) are the metal ball head screws that are typically used for RC cars. They're shaped almost exactly like old school action figure joints and can even be removable if you want the custom to have modular parts! Just be sure to use something really strong to make sure the joint doesn't go anywhere, I recommend steel reinforced plumber's epoxy putty (it's like $5-6 a tube and it's well worth it).
Great tips, thanks!
Wow that looks like it should have been the design from the start. Appt too considering how much Japanese films influenced Lucas
Thank!
Very cool my friend, kind of reminds me of the sh figure arts Star Wars samurai collection only much cheaper and more fun to build. I've said it before and I'll say it again you got a heck of an imagination my friend.
Thanks!
Yeah, I love those figure but they're a little pricey... 😅
👍
Muito bom 🎉🎉
He needs the mud horn icon on the shoulder but otherwise I like it a lot.
Great point! I can definitely add that. Thanks.😃
Very nice, although you missed out on an opportunity to paint the sword like the dark sabre
That's a great call out! I may have to go back and do that! 😀
Thanks.
Looks awesome 😊
Thanks
@@DRToysCreations you are welcome
Great job , but dont you use primer paint to cover the figure before painting?
I normally do but because the brown was so close in color I didn’t. I put a clear coat over everything at the end which protects it from scratching off. Plus it just sits on in a display shelf.
Why you don't try to build some caned of Bioshock soldier?
Love that!
I just want to know man plz
If i made toys like those am i goin to get sum views ?
I want start like you do
So I’ve been at this for over four years now and about a month ago I finally hit a video that took off. The YT algorithm is black magic!😂
@@DRToysCreations so youtube gives a very slow views right ?
@@00smash69 Yup. :)
Did not prime?
The silver is a oil/wax based paint and it stick really well to the softer material. I also did a clear coat at the end that sealed it all. It's just sitting on my display shelf and doesn't get handled much.
But I hear ya, most of the time I will do a prime coat but for this one most of the color was already there.
