Please help me find... (continuously updated)

Thanks for posting those photos. They confirm that is the head I should be looking for. Now if only I could find a real one.

It looks like your best bet at this point would be to purchase the whole figure (found some on AliExpress) before the price really shoots up for it. And then just sell off the parts from that kit you don't need.
I'm currently having the same issues finding stuff for SW FS015 Tomb Raider figure. But everything has been bought up already unfortunately, and the whole figure is now going for a measly sum of $800. :S

I'm afraid you're probably right, but at $400+ it's already shot a bit too high for my comfort level. The whole "you snooze, you lose" aspect of this hobby really can be quite brutal on the old savings account if you want something a few years old...

Completely feel your pain on that one. When I first started out I missed out on so much because I had no idea how quickly things became rare and/or really expensive...

Unfortunately, you’re discovering one of the biggest issues with this hobby. Unlike mass-produced products (eg., Mattel, Hasbro, etc.), the stuff in the “High End Collectibles” market is made in finite numbers — which is part of the reason this stuff is so expensive. I would recommend searching for a comparable head on sites like Giantoy, Monkey Depot, BlackOpsToys, and eBay, and forego looking for that specific head. I have the figure in question, and the pic you posted is either a really bad photograph, or, as a skywalkersaga mentioned, a knock-off, as it doesn’t look anything like the head on my figure.

Well that's very interesting I thought that second photo looked very familiar as it turns out it's one of mine. LOL

Oh, ha! Sorry to nick your photo, BadWolf. Just did a google search and used whatever came up. :3

No worries I was just bit surprised that's all. LOL

Thanks for the info and suggestions. I think I'm going to have to let this one go and just use a different head instead.    
It doesn't help for stuff that came out before my time, but this search has reinforced my feeling that if I see something being released that I may want someday, I had better grab it now and that's probably a good lesson to learn.

If you're looking for a similar head sculpt, search for Star Man Ms-004 on ebay. Was browsing through someone's store and thought I had accidentally found your sculpt. lol

Good catch, glitch!!

I'm not sure if this is the right thread for it, but I'm currently looking for an s27b tbleague body in the older (greyish) suntan skintone. I had coloured one of those ages ago with oil pastels, but unfortunately the shoulder articulation on it has malfuctioned and the shoulder/arm is now very loose and hard to pose. I would like to be able to replace it so the figure in question can be posed properly.  I tried to colour a newer pale suntan body with the same oil pastels, but it's proving difficult to get the same results -- it is noticeably lighter. If anyone has an older suntan s27b that is in decent condition, let me know.

Sky, was "older" suntan still around when they made S27B? Or did you mean S17B? Or has there been an even newer "new" suntan of late?

GubernatorFan wrote:Sky, was "older" suntan still around when they made S27B? Or did you mean S17B? Or has there been an even newer "new" suntan of late?

I mean the 'grey' suntan that was the normal one for a couple years until tbleague started messing with it over the last year or so (they've had pink/reddish suntan and now this current pale suntan, since).

ETA: So, any suntan bodies from 2019 would probably qualify (I think?).

I wasn’t sure if I should post under this “looking for” thread or the “Clothing TBLeague” thread...

Anyway, sifting through the eBay listings for T-Shirts, I came across a seller that I’ve bought from before, simplehappylife, and a listing for a black (or white) T-Shirt themed with a few popular shoe logos and super hero logos. It immediately made me think about making myself custom 1/6 shirts, very much like I do for full size shirts utilizing heat activated vinyl cut on my wide format plotter and then clam-shell heat pressed/fused to the shirt.

Does anyone know where I can find multiple blank black or white T-Shirts? I’d prefer them large enough to fit my M34.

I suppose I could start searching “T-Shirt” on the many sites that have loose accessories, but usually they’re just one or maybe two of any one kind in stock... as I’d prefer to save a bit by buying more than one/a few. Not to mention potential sizing issues.

I can't guarantee the fit or the reliability of the sellers, but these have multiples of each:

Is the one in the middle a box figure or is it custom?

The head is from a boxed TBL set, she’s wearing part of her modified top, the rest is a bash. I can’t remember the name of the comic book character that it’s from.

That’s La Muerta. Her and Robyn Hood are my two most wanted 1/6 figures right now, but I’m not paying several hundred dollars for them.

I forgot to thank you! Sorry I'm late

She's from Tbleague 'La Muerta':

Please help me find a larger head sculpt for my TBLeague S38 body. Its original head is somehow too small, so I am looking for a more suitable one. A little skin tone difference is no problem. Thank you in advance.

I haven't done much with mine, but here are a couple that seem to fit ok, in Post 149 in the Clothing TBLeague Seamless Bodies thread and Post 53 in the New Product S38A-S39A thread:

That last thread also has other members' photos (warning: thread is not quite up to date on forum censorship policies) with other heads on this body. I don't have much use for the TBLeague pale skintone, so I can only show you S39A. The difference these days is not very noticeable anyway, although these particular heads I used are not very pale. I also thought the original head was a bit small (of course most things will look small next to that bust), and didn't care much for it.

Thank you! Yours is a very good fit for the S39.
I think, the main problem is the thickness of the neck and the broad shoulders, hence the need for a wider head. There are a few head sculpts that I like, but I'm afraid they might not fit as well as the current one. Unfortunately, such comparisons of heads are hard to find. Therefore it is useful to see any good match.

Saturn -- if you like the style, you could try these Super Duck heads:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133439955276?hash=item1f11a4214c:g:VWsAAOSwN5Ve6HPz

These are quite large, and they match a pale skintone.

Thank you too, I've been thinking about this head, it could also be a good choice.
Something with slightly fuller lips would be nice too.

Hey folks!
I'm building a customized Phicen figure of a female IDF soldier that I've seen in a Youtube video.
The 1/1 original is firing her M-40 on a shooting range wearing nothing but red IDF combat boots, tight pants, a tight white belly free tanktop and ear protectors.

(the scene with my girl is very short, but you'll recognise her if you watch closely)

I have everything I need for the project with only one exception: the EAR PROTECTORS
I tried to find a pair on Ebay but it was in vain.
Maybe one of you guys can help me get them?

Shalom Alehem and thanks in advance,
ben_kadeesh

I know that some of the Power Team figures come with ear protectors and I know there was this Chris Costa "Range Day" figure that also came with them and I did see them on ebay awhile back. My Alternative suggestion would be to get one of those Radio Headsets like the one from the Easy & Simple PMC and use it as a stand if for the ear guards.

I also found these, maybe they work: https://www.ebay.com/itm/274773706279?hash=item3ff9ca0627:g:biIAAOSwX1dghhIs

So, I am looking for a "heroic" looking male headsculpt, you know, something that looks chiseled/grizzled and would fit an action hero or super spy and something that would work with the bigger TBLeauge bodies. I know there are a ton of actor heads out there but I was looking for something that is a bit stylized maybe. Any ideas/suggestions?

Two of the links you posted show the perfect parts for my project. Alas the sellers charge ridiculously high shipping fees for such tiny items.
