these are skeleton helmets... with a bit of filing these could do i think...
also... as selvegio said... why not make a special force of cobra warriors for your jungle fighters? i think that would be a cool project... and.... from an artictic point of view... you would need to tackle some other kind of colors....

You could try this miniature from Hasslefree miniatures even comes with the head detached :

So.we got home from the grocery store just now. Usually the puppy is right there at the door waiting to greet us, today she wasn't!
We whistled, we caled her name, couldn't find her! Oh no!
After a few minutes of searching the house we find her sitting waiting patiently to be rescued from an Oven mitt she got stuck on her head!

BIRD
er...*puzzled* does this mean i should swing into action then?
Bird is the word Vik! If you get them, I'm sure we can work out a trade soon Or find out whet they are and can I get them in the US?
no, she's normally pretty good, she just decided to play with it (the drawer was open slightly, so we figured she pulled it out of there)
Automatically Appended Next Post: She is ALMOST done teething now, she lost most of her puppy teeth already, and big strong ones are grown in, we give her plenty of bones and toys to chew since it feels good on her back teeth. Haven't had her destroy much of our stuff that way.

Heh, Al always inspires!.>Actually it was the same tour as the show we went to in Indy last year, but the setlist was changed up a bit. We had AWESOME seats at an outdoor venue, we were probably 20 feet from Al, we got wet from the cup of water he throws on the crowd after gargling for "Smells like Nirvana", he came out into the crowd in the row right in front of us when he does his crowd bits. During Canadian Idiot he launches confetti cannons, and we were right under the payload. It was awesome!

I've been itching to check out this missile launcher trailer
Each missile is molded onto it's rack unfortunately, but removing them by a screw will allow any imaginable type of dual or quad weapon to be mounted there with independent right and left articulation, as well as 360 degree swivel held by another screw below.
Infinitely useful is the provided cockpit, which my headless Stinger Driver (sentinel pilot) fits perfectly
..And now the LAV-type vehicle
Shas, do you see potential in this?
I see some wheels and a turret I'll be stealing for other projects

I was wondering if you saw the lav. I'm still thinking of getting some of these, but just couldn't pull the trigger the other day. Maybe I'll buy the jeeps and use them for n adeptus arbites vehicle. Just need the proper bits to go with it.
Dave you are father to a furry little child. It's good training, especially when your picking up the poop.
Love the coffee mug. You should put a strip across the side of it to be a level gauge. Thn you can have fun playing Lego after every sip you can lower the gauge and raise it back when you fill it.
