Please. Movable eyes in a realistic head.

TBleague offered some heads with movable eyes when they started their line of seamless figures, but - I guess - they weren't very convincing (search for "red rose in fire"). The problem seems to be that the 'mechanics' requires a certain eye size, which fits much better in an anime head than in an ultra realistic head. That said, you might possibly be interested in i8's recent heads, which are in-between realism and anime.
Here are two quick shots...
If I remember correctly they move separately, but that was no issue at all, because they were quite smooth to handle. And it's good that they move separately or you'd have no control over the focus point.Delanie wrote:Do these eyes work in sync' , a bar connecting both eyes?
Asmus new Gandalf has moveable eyes which look relatively realistic but I will admit I had problems aligning them when i first had him as each eye moves separate I had him at one time looking like 'mad eyed moonie'

Thanks for the kind comments. The i8 heads are really neat.
I also like the SD heads with moveable eyes. I recently got a loose faceplate from the "Sexy Sniper" set (set 051) from Giantoys for only 10 bucks. Here is a comparison shot ...

the SDXX04 in the picture is shown on a S25B. Proportions are Ok for an anime character, but are not too realistic.
