In fact, the heads of lots of 28mm not-Ratlings. A large unit arrived with another coming. Nice castings, but a limited range of headgear. I know Victoria Miniatures offers separate Halfling head packs, but does anyone else? (Call me a small sniper junkie. I buy lots, but try to swap out uniforms every six or twelve figures.) Thanks. |

There are a lot of head options on the Sneakfeet sprues: link If you like different styles of Halfling snipers, I made these a long time ago but sadly (for you) no head options: link There are also lots available here: link For halfling heads, separately, the only place I can think of is 3d printing and searching sites for STLs because I've seen ranges of Halfling snipers but they tend to be complete miniatures… |

Thank you Insomniac. Agreed plenty of heads on the Sneakfeet sprues, but little choice of headgear: pretty much everyone in ballcap, unless I save up and put a small unit in bandana. I was really hoping for a Halfling-size head in "Aussie" hat with turned up brim, or US-type "boonie." But such is life. I may try the Victoria Miniatures pith helmet. Saving up my 3D print "credit" to get my son who has one to expand my selection of 2mm armored cars. Yeah, I could buy one myself, but there's money, learning curve and space. If a printer got me a period or even an army, I'd be more tempted. But for a dozen heads, I'm inclined to look for a work-around instead. |

I believe the OOh Raah have heads with the hats you describe. |

No such luck, Brother Jim, if you mean the Wargames Atlantic "Deathfields" people--who would also be fair size heads on halfling bodies. Maybe someone makes 20mm WWII heads? |
