Help me Augie Ben Doggie, your my only hope! Hey guys, I want to put some blank make and female heads (where appropriate) on my new Warzone Resurrection figures. While Pratos Game's new figures are FANTASTIC, they are also realistically scaled. IE they are regular 28mm not "heroic". So they dont have giant water heads. They are on the same scale as Infinity figures. The problem is all the heads of other manufaturers are scalled to swap out Games Workshop, and are too big on Warzone. Id like to find heads *WITH HAIR* attached. I know Kev White does some without hair, but I dont know if they are in scale or not. I could greenstuf some hair in a pinch, but id prefer to do pre-haired (is that even a word?) SO Im reaching out to you gurus of the minature world. Please help. Irishman |

See if you can acquire some Wargames Factory survivor heads from the plastic kits. They're not heroic scale. |

Thanks, they have a lot of baseball caps and sun glasses, which *could* work, but I was hoping for just plain heads. |

Those Statuesque female heads are exactly what I want for females, here is hoping they are the right scale. THey also do a "heroic" scale sprue, so im hoping these are therefore NON heroic. Now to find some decent male heads. |

hfminis.co.uk need work for hair but are otherwise nicely sized I have used the Statuesque heads they are reasonable sized and very nice in my opinion. Also had the most amazing speed of delivery from them 3pm order then first post the next day. x42 |

Statuesque minis are the same size as Infinity: [URL=http://s1097.photobucket.com/user/scott_kenny/media/Gaming%20Photos/20121230222723_zps7e9ea16f.jpg.html]
[/URL] Statuesque girl between two Metros. As you can see, a bit taller but within the realms of human variation. Those Statuesque girls make GREAT light-infantry proxies for Infinity. They're not really separately available as bits, but the Anima Tactics "___ Agent" minis usually have an alternate head and are in excellent scale for swapping to realistically proportioned 28mm minis. I have used several of them on my Infinity minis (that I apparently haven't taken photos of yet, sorry). Depending on which minis you get, you can also have some great civilians to use. Between wanting Infinity civilians and wanting to paint the model, that accounts for something like 40 Anima Tactics minis. The Anima Tactics minis do tend to be taller than Infinity minis, but I don't know how Infinity minis compare with the new Warzone Resurrection minis. |
