Title: Girls, Older Women, Bald Guys?
Post by: David on March 10, 2007, 02:01 PM: Hey all, I'm working on my pn, and I need ideas. Where are there heads for:

A young, original looking white Jedi woman?
An older looking female Jedi?
A bald white Imperial officer?

Any thoughts would be appreciated, preferably heads outside of the Star Wars 3.75" line but yeah all ideas would be super. I need help, and fast so I can keep up the pace on my filming.

Check out the XD and 20th Century Military line for figure heads of men, and check GI Joe for women.

I shaved off the metal forehead bits. And Ithink it turned out ok.

Post by: tonphanan on March 11, 2007, 11:07 AM: Check out the Zartan with removable hood from the current G.I. Joe line, current as in a year or three old, bu the Zartan is bald and my head of choice for bald guys. I think I have an extra if you are interested. Check out http://www.yojoe.com/action/03/zartan6.shtml.

Post by: Siths Herald on March 12, 2007, 09:06 AM: Here are a couple I've used.

These two heads were from Spy Kids.

This 'older' woman was just a ROTS Mon Mothma

And here are a few ideas for bald guys. This one is also from Spy Kids.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v331/redfox75/Custom%20Figures/JediSwordmaster.jpg)

And, as mentioned above, Zartan makes a good bald head. I used him for my updated Xixor.

Post by: CHEWIE on March 12, 2007, 06:24 PM: I used a couple of Padme heads on these - just adding the fake hair to them really helps them look like different women than Padme -

The GI JOE Bombstrike head works well too -

Oola and other Twilek heads can look different if you paint them up quite a bit -

www.goodtogocustoms.com sells custom heads you can purchase and use -

Endor Leia can work out as a female rebel perhaps -

(http://www.yakface.com/toyguide/dioramas/chewie/012807femalerebel.jpg)

The heads from the Lucas daughters can work out pretty good too -

(http://chewie34.250free.com/051506QueenJamilla.jpg)

You can also turn an Ithorian into a female -

(http://www.yakface.com/toyguide/dioramas/chewie/082206itho2.jpg)

The Elizabeth Swan figures from the Pirates line can be useful too -

The GI JOE Zarana head can work...

(http://www.yakface.com/toyguide/dioramas/chewie/012807hottie.jpg)

Shaak Ti's head is great, you could even make an alternate uniform for her or make a whole new alien from her -

(http://www.thecustomalliance.com/cook/120405GeneralTi.jpg)

Or even try a Nemoidian witch...

(http://www.yakface.com/toyguide/dioramas/chewie/010707nemoidian.jpg)

Or even just a Nemoidian woman by adding Agen Kolar hair -

(http://www.thecustomalliance.com/cook/112805PodraceFour.jpg)

But if you want to get really ugly, use a Pit Witch head from the Army of Darkness line -

I picked up the body for that figure at toy show, as guessed, it was a Japanese anime style figure. The head is Aurra Sing with some painted tatoos. The hair is from the Annika Sub Agent figure. The cape is Garindan.
