I like those heads.

Will you be doing any more - say with Chicom hats?

[Paul @ Empress Miniatures]

Possibly but not at the moment as we are concentrating on other stuff.

I am down for some of those.
But I am also a fan of the straw hats, going to add some to my Vietminh as well.

The sun hats look great.  Excellent idea to make them.

[carlos marighela]

Make that three votes for the Mao caps as well as some floppy hats and pith helmets. Actually it would be nice if you did spare heads for the whole range so we could mix ‘n’ match and double up poses.

[Paul @ Empress Miniatures]

What about Marine and /or ANZAC heads?

[Dr. Zombie]

While heads are really nice to have, to avoid duplicates. Especially for us saps who initially started out with just some squad based skirmish but now are well underway to full company gaming.

What we really need is civilians and VC.

[Mick_in_Switzerland]

Personally, I do not see the need for Marine and ANZAC heads.

The collections already have a lot of different sculpts and I can make the forces that I  want without any duplicates.

The sun hat heads will allow me to make some VC that are clearly different from the NVA.

Chi-com (Mao) hats would allow me to convert some figures to represent Cambodian and Laotian guerrillas.

[commissarmoody]

I think the Marines could use a pack of boonie hats and some Patrol caps.  Aside from that, just looking forward to seeing what else you guys have in the works.

ANZACS need some more figures as previously discussed in the thread.  We will do VC, as previously stated so they will eventually be in the same situation as the Marines with lots of options. Infact I can see me getting very carried away with the VC.

Spoiler Alert: Hobby horse being trotted out.*

It occurs to me that with Mao caps, were Paul to sculpt a few more chaps in tunics and chest rigs you could make 1970s Chinese. More opposition for your PAVN and also for your upcoming Soviet paratroopers.


*It’s Melbourne Cup Day here, so I’m allowed.

[Andrew_McGuire]

Yep, definitely more heads Australian heads. That way we can model Tasmanians if we wish. You really need two heads to accurately model Tasmanians. I think we can gloss over the missing digits and webbed fingers at this scale. Button counters can add and subtract with a craft knife and putty.

You should be careful what you say about Tasmanians. Apparently some of them can read.

[carlos marighela]

Only some and they would still need to find another Tasmanian that can write if they wanted to reply. Lowest literacy rates in the country. 

[Dr. Zombie]

OI!
The next queen of Denmark is from Tasmania and her husband the crown prince is the danish equivalent of a Navy Seal (only better). Don’t make us come down under and kick you asses.
