    Luke Cage head

    Hi all,
    I've been wanting to put together a custom Luke Cage, but I'm having trouble finding a head that I like. I want to do the more modern bald, with goatie Luke Cage, not the 70's Powerman style. Can someone steer me in the right direction?

    Thanks,
    Steve

    You could always go with a Brown Cast Bald Man head from Doc Mego and paint the Goatee onto the face, since you have to paint eyes and eyebrows anyway.

    For me though, this is the head I'm using for Cage

      My suggestion would be one of the bald heads from Dr. Mego...

      I used his Bald Man Head - that he cast in brown for me - to make my Haitian figure from the Heroes TV series.

          I thought that head was more middle eastern? For a Pirate type Phantom villian?

            I would be curious how the scale on this figure's head would compare
