      Sinister is really elongated, too. Lots of forehead.

          The FC Mr. Sinister head was the base of my original Batman custom. It's a little big, but not too bad (maybe perfect for Colossus).

          You can sand down the head to a more manageable size.

          Fresh, not from concentrate.

              I think the FC version IS to big. I've had it side by side with a Mego and it's definitely bigger. I saw once on a FC customizing site, where a guy did use that head for Colossus, but somehow he cut down the forehead.

              Boss's Batman is a different case. As you can see, Boss has had to do some sculpting to turn it into Batman(forehead is much smaller). Also, Boss uses his "bulked up" body which helps a lot on making the scale look right.

                      I used a custom head off eBay that was designed for Shazam, sanded his chin down, and sanded his head to a flat top. It worked very nicely.

                            Yes, mine came of eBay . It was intended as a Shazam head. My link-fu to Flickr is evidently insufficient, so sorry if images don't post. I took the Shazam head, reduced his prominent chin, and sanded his hair down to a flattop
