Anybody got 1 (or 2) of thes laying around? I could use some. I'm just too cheap to pay $8 shipping for a $2 part.
thanks!

I'm gonna try and answer this for you. The quality of plastic appears to be inferior to the other CTVT heads. It is softer, more thin and prone to tear by the stem or plug area. (I wished it was made with the same quality as the Grim Reaper's head, which appears to be the same head but caste with a yellowish color, "better" thicker plastic and more detailed paint scheme.) On the other hand, the detailed of the skeleton head is absolutely fantastic. I did not believe all of details in the sculpt until I started the custom paint. As is, it looks like something from a $0.99 store. Get some black acrylic paint to flush out the detail and that head is quite sinister and more evil looking than the Demon head. I am in the process of getting a new camera. When I finally get one, I'll try and post some pics. FYI, I owned at least 20 of 'em and trashed about half of 'em trying to customized the skeleton head.

I hope this answer some of your questions.
One man's opinion I've gotten about 10 of them and used the bodies & heads with no problem...Is it just me or am I seeing alot of hate towards CTVT? I know in the past they were not great but now they are OK...
Please let me clarify. I never meant to imply that the skeleton head can be easily torn by the stem area. (Now that I am re-reading my comment, it appears I did....sorry.) In fact I am quite fond of it and that's why I own so many of 'em. I have about 4 left. It just that of the 20-ish or so I have about 3-4 of them arrived with a tear by the stem area. (This is what I should have mentioned.) When I compared it to the Grim Reaper's head, I noticed the plastic appears to be of inferior quality.

All the CTTV heads I've had are prone to tears there.
I love that CTTV has suits and all kinds of crazy wrestling props.
Snowshovels? 2x4 wrapped in barbed wire?
