Hi all,
The only replacement heads I can readily lay my hands on are ones from Mig productions.
The packaging states they are 54mm.
My question is are they true 54mm? or closer to 1/35th?,I'm wanting to use them with Dragon bodies.
But don't want to end up with out of proportion figures.
Any advice please
Chris

Hello!!
Well, these heads is really 54m/m....and...maybe is a bit big for 1/35 figures.
Maybe they can work in any plastic figure, but I expect it too big for almost all of them!!
I am sorry

Stick with Hornet heads for the Dragon figures. With a bit of drilling, the heads usually enhance a figure. Hornet heads are available at www.Coloradominatures.com.

Hi Chris youīve already got the answer from the man himself. As previously stated have a look at the Hornet ones they are something else. I have seen some of the bearded ones by Mig in 54mm ,they are good because I painted one for a friend of mine but as he said they are too big. Google search Hornet & Wolf then see if he has distributors where you are.http://www.greenwichgateway.com/hornetandwolf/ donīt know if that will work as a link for you but thatīs his website.Iīve just checked on there for you & he has a distributor in Australia.

Thanks very guys.
Using MiG heads was an easy option as a local store has a couple of sets in stock.
I guess I'll have to send overseas to get them.
No worries
