    New CTVT Female rooted hair heads

    Just got my order in and the new female heads look fantastic. Tons of hair, well rooted. The "dirty blond" is a pale orange and the red is really red. The plastic for the head is good and heavy, along the lines of original Mego female heads.

    How's the paintjob?

    The lipstick application looked a bit incomplete in the photos at the site.

      To my eye the paint job look the same as on a Doc Blonde head. I'll try to get a photo of both and post it.

        Well, maybe a little light on the bottom lip but hard to really tell. Doc Blonde on right.

          Cool! Up close they look very pretty.

          Now if only they came in an African American version!

          Repainting Uhura heads or the AA Dinah, just isn't the same.

                  I've just received a set of these as well--the materials, rooting, and deco are good.

                  The dirty blonde is a strawberry blonde; the light red (as above) is Batgirl-bright; the dark red is burgandy.

                    The dark red/burgundy seems to be a strange color choice for CTVT to make? Maybe they tried to have a purple haired head and this is what their factories produced instead? Anyway, the female heads look great and its nice to see them making a variety of male heads too (although a few people of color heads would be great too).

                      I'd have to see the burgundy head in person to see if it's more purple than red.

                      I really don't think it's going to be an issue, though.

                      However, I would have liked to see one in dark auburn.

                        Would the purple hair work for the UFO girl?

                          ^No, it's definately burgundy, not purple or magenta.

                          I would have liked auburn, too--I wonder if this was a communication error with the factory?

                          I could have used auburn for Poison Ivy, but I have a great idea for the burgundy.

                            I see a Babs Gordon SI with the redhead and the glasses they have.
