Reposting this b/c for some reason it didn't show up on the main or genre boards.

Anyone know of any animals heads that would fit on VERY large humanoid 28mm Figures (AT-43 Karmans) especially Rhinos, Elephants and Hippos?

A friend of mine just showed me the "Hip Flask" comic and as I've always liked anthropomorphic animals, it caught my imagination.

I'd like to convert a batch of AT-43 Karmans to other animals. Complicating factor is that they have to be a bit on the big side to work with the AT-43 Karman figures.

The only one I've heard of is the Hasslefree Rhino heads and as far as I know, those are pretty small.

Alternatively, if someone knows of a source of cheap toys that I could cut the heads off of, that might be another possibility, though the difference in neck position of a humanoid vs a real rhino could pose difficulties.

Dollar Tree has lots of cheap critter packs for easy conversion.

Check out the local Thrift Shop. Usually bags of plastic toy animals for $1.00 USD.

You might end up with lots of unneeded items, but who knows -- perhaps a use will materialize later on.

Dollar Tree! Of course.
