    Batman Heads

    Hey guys. Where's a good place to get a decent Batman head? I have been to customlabs and reproheads already. Both have great stuff, just not what I am looking for. I bought one from Brian Leitner on ebay a couple of months ago, but its just not quite right either. I am looking for a cross between Jim Aparo and Neil Adams. Can anyone post some of their Batman customs to givre me some ideas whats out there?

    Thanks,

    K

    Try this site: http://www.geocities.com/aquatroy/Mego.html There's a nice Batman 70's style that might be what you are looking for.

          Troy Younger's is probably the best suited for what you are looking for from your description(Aparo/Adams). A pic may be helpful, though.
          Of all the souls I have encountered his was the most...human.

            Thanks for the pic and the hints about the websites. The problem is I don't have a set look I was going for. Just one of those things that when I see it I'll know. I like that pic posted by The Bat. But I like the balck and grey look over the blue and grey. I'll probably pic one up and paint it black to see how it looks.

            Thanks to all,

                I totally agree. That's alot like what I am going for. Thanks for posting it. I like the emblem too. Is it a sticker or something else?

                  I also have a more "animted" style head.


                  This head is made to fit the old Aurora model kits, but someone used it for a 9" custom

                    Very cool. Does anyone know who created the following head? I copied it a while ago and can't remember where I found it.

                          It's Captain Mego's...I had bought it once, and it's looks too small on a Mego Body...so I sold it.
