So I ordered some Waffen SS from Warlord and I really like them, for the most part. But as I am assembling them for painting I am so far missing two heads and I am only about a third of the way through my order. I am sure they will send me replacements for the missing heads, and this post is not meant as a complaint at all, I am just wondering if this is a common problem with the optional head system from Bolt Action, or if I am just having bad luck? |

The last time I bought some Bolt Action figures from WG I got extra heads, so I can't complain :) I haven't had any problems otherwise.
Cheers

Are the separate heads attached to the minis base within the mold like warlords WW2 brits or on a seperate tab like Westwinds, if so it could be a casting issue Mike |

They are, and I suspect it is a casting issue. They are on a sprue that is attatched to the rest of the mini. With the heads that are missing, the whole sprue is also missing. As I said, I am not too worried about it. When I figure out how many heads I need I will contact them, and I suspect it will be resolved easily. Just curious if it was a widespread issue, or a "just me" issue. |

Happened to me too, think I was missing 5-6 heads off my SS |
