The best 1/8 Frankenstein replacement head

#1 Post by mjbare »

Has anyone seen a replacement head, especially for the Moebius 1931 Frankenstein kit, that really looks like the photo on box?

If so, where can I get one? Every time I’ve seen Jeff Yagher at a con, I ask him to please do one.

Wolfman, I did purchase the test makeup replacement head but didn't think the other head was as good a sculpt that Mr. Yagher can do. His sculpt for the 1/8 Bride kit is awesome so I know he could knock a 1931 head out of the park. So if anyone here has any influence with Jeff or even Mike Hill, please plead with them to do a truly screen accurate replacement head.

Tom's passing was very sad. He and I communicated here and there and he was such a decent man.
