I was wondering if any of you would know if the heads of the Perry's plastic plastic Mahdist Ansar (particularly the Beja or "Fuzzy Wuzzies") would fit ok on Victrix's plastic Ancient Numidian Cavalry.

Detailed pictures of the sprues:

I haven't found any info on the forums. MartinC on this 2018  entry of The Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge says that he used the Mahdist's arms in the Numidian cavalry without mentioning difficulties or much work needed ( link ).


I am inclined to think they should match ok and without the need of much conversion, but would love to read your opinions or comparison pictures before moving into buying. 

Cheers!

Not knowing the Victrix Numidians in particular but having assembled many Victrix and Perry plastic figures I would say that Perry figures are noticeably smaller so they so might look odd on Victrix torsos.
