i had to go look, but yea playmate.
this one says 4" by Carolco, it looks like a pretty soft sculpt though
not lego brand
you could always search other merch like keychains, phone danglers, valve tube caps, or even jewelry might get lucky.

I've checked a few casters, Ragin Spoon, AVACS, Star Wars Geek, but I can't find any copies. I know I bought one but I can't remember the source. Can any of you point me to another source? And no Vortious....I am NOT waiting four months. |

Star Wars Geek had it for sure, but he pulled all his listings a while ago. |

i searched ebay. the originals are pricey! what about the 4" terminator line? while not as cool looking they are cheapish at $4 maybe less if you buy multiples. i also saw a ko lego terminator figure for $5, roll of the dice though on scale. |

4" Terminator figures....I assume you mean the ones by Playmates? I had some of those and replaced all the heads as they sucked, then I gave the heads I cut off away. I'm afraid any LEGO figure's head would be too small. |

looks like the latest movie had mini figures and some cup toppers. the mini says 2.5" so way too small. the cup toppers might be close if you could find one to try.

how bad do these look in person?  etsy 1.5" if i'm figuring right  https://www.etsy.com/listing/782947495/ ... ck=1&sca=1 lists slightly "3mm" smaller, i don't see how lol  https://www.etsy.com/listing/769069736/ ... ch_click=1 this one only lists hole size, so i'm not sure. i will say when i cast destro heads they were the perfect size for "tactical" lanyard beads. that was my plan to cast and sell them as beads, then i started making a custom while i worked on that plan, and the rest is history  this huy lists some brass and i thonk that would hold up better than pewter (unless they are just pewter in color). if they are the right size you have a neck hole ready to go, just fill in the top and roll with it. https://www.etsy.com/listing/638575712/ ... _active_40 you might contact this guy on etsy. i got those amazing predator masks from him. https://www.etsy.com/shop/PolymorphMini ... t-shopname i'm sure if he thinks it is worth making a bunch than he would. i think the masks i got were first a request since he normally does smaller scale. |

I have ONE YVH head. I've been meaning to get some molding/casting material to make copies of other things, I might have a try at molding and casting a head. I like the Terminator head, but I don't want it to be a Terminator head...does that make any sense? I actually wish there was another option for a skeletal/robotic looking head. 2DARK, thanks for all the help you supplied, it's always appreciated! |

i just noticed swg was back? or still? open on ebay. i looked through 9 pages listed for 18th and either missed it or it's not listed. maybe shoot him a message since they are listed without a "name". https://www.ebay.com/str/StarWarsGeek-C ... 2747401014 |

2DARK, you are always of help. And I just placed an order with SWG yesterday. He doesn't have the YVH-1, but he had another that was similar except it had fangs. I'm not sure I'm sold on the fangs, but I suppose if I don't like them, I can probably remove them pretty easily. |
