It's been a while since we ran a Report on the latest head sets from Hornet. Well worth waiting for though...
For those unaware of the range, it's not hyperbole to say that the head sets from Hornet/Wolf are simply the best on the market at the present time. Not simply for the superlative quality, but for the vast range they produce.

Three new (resin) head sets have been announced by Hornet. These are:

HH29 - Bare heads with one eye closed eg. sighting a weapon

HH30 - Bare heads anxious or frightened expressions

H3205 - Five more heads for 1:32/54mm figures

My grateful thanks to Theo Braat who received the images from Historex Agents in England and passed them on to us...

Thanks for the news. looks great indeed, as usual in this perfect range, but why don't make some ethnic head set. If I'm right, there are one asian and one African set and already dozen of "bare head with..." People modelling Asian figures are forced to play with 4 heads, that's pretty poor. Cheers. A.

Good news indeed Jim. The only set I am not sure about is the ones with their mouths open as they look very zombie like, especially close up.

Figures are getting downright spooky! Amazing details for 1/35th.

While I do agree with you, it's most likely due to the shortage of actual figures representing the ethnic groups you mention. As a small manufacturer I'm sure Hornet can't afford to produce products that may sell in lower volumes but needs to go for the more popular subjects.
