Has anyone seen a female headcast that is shaved on one side and long on the other? I think there's a cheap Walmart knockoff figure that is similar, but I skimmed through some of the usual casting sites and didn't see anything. This is the look I'm going for:  Thanks! |

What you're thinking of is the Corps figure featured here, http://www.toydejour.com/blog/the-corps ... e-jour-307 And they're getting much better quality these days. |

Corps head mentioned should work. A little oversized and cartoonish, but not at all bad. Probably too big to work on a star wars torsos, but passable on Joes. Oh, and they're cheap and common enough that I don't think they're being casted. You can buy the full figure sets for less than most of the casters could charge and ship them for. And I think that figure was just released in an even cheaper 2-pack. |

This one from Rodimus is shrunk down a little. http://vortiouscustomaccessories.ecrate ... 558/fem-90 Attachment: 560a236faba61_248318n.jpg [ 9.38 KiB | Viewed 2427 times ] |

I went ahead and ordered the Rodimus one. I may pick up that CORPS set too since it's so cheap. Thanks for the help guys. My only other solution was dremeling off one side of a figure with hair on both sides, hehe. |

Could have also attached 1/2 the She Hulk hair to a Hacks blank bald head. Hers, or 1/2 the Paris pursuit Hair to a blank. Her gun looks familiar. I've seen this on either a SW or Joe figure. Might even still have it, worth look. |

You meant the Paris Pursuit Baroness? I didn't even think of looking for figures with removable hair. I was planning on using the gray HACKS buck for the body. I was thinking of painting a Pirates of the Caribbean pistol for her gun. Did maybe one of the Clone Wars cartoon figs have a gun like that? I didn't collect them. Looks piratey. Thanks again for the responses, I really appreciate them. |

PM me if you want that corps head. I also have a SW Plour head (the bald x-wing pilot). |

I did some searching, it looks like the original Hondo Ohnaka figure had a similar gun. (The one in the white packaging). Tsunami: I think I'm good for heads. I will either use the gray HACKS head and add hair to it, or I'll use the Vortious version of the Corps head, which is a little smaller it appears. Thanks again everyone! I play D&D (well, Pathfinder in this case) with the same friends I've been getting together with since 1983, and I always try to make our D&D party in action figures and make little cartoons. In this case, we have that woman pictured as an NPC in our group so I wanted to take a shot at a true custom. |

You could also try this pistol from the 1:18th Star Trek movie Nero figure.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the Star Trek figs. I bought a huge pile of them when they were on clearance just to get the chairs and accessories. I am pretty sure I have that Nero fig. Thanks! |
