Hello hobby side of Dakka!

I have a relatively specific non-problematic problem. I have been a great lover of my Harlequins for ages, and my sizable collection ballooned out of control when GW released them as an army in 7th. Fast forward to now, I have converted so many things to the Harlequin theme that I have a huge Dark Eldar army in "matching" rainbow colors for variety's sake.

Except that up until now, I've never had any of the real old-old school 2nd ed era metal stuff. Those Harlequin bike masks you see in all kinds of conversions go for like 30$ a pop on ebay! But a friend of mine moved out of town recently and gave me a box of old harlequin models that he picked up for next to nothing at an estate sale - and there they were.

FIVE metal harlequin bike masks, only one of which actually has a bike attached. The bike I'm hanging on to for now - I'm still holding out hope that either Harlequins or DE will get a bike HQ and I will convert this sucker up with whatever weapons it needs to be wysiwyg for that. But the rest of the masks..... I don't know yet.

Wraithlord is the obvious choice. I have a few of the CWE wraith units that I mix in with my puppet show themed Haemonculus units. But my problem is, they look like this: https://spikeybits.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Harlequin_Wraithlord_by_NPlusPlus-Copy.jpg

Obviously that's a museum-quality paintjob, but the proportions are just off. Plus, I have a converted harlequin wraithlord already that I'm incredibly attached to.

So...anyone have any ideas? Bikes? Vehicles? Wraithknight? Avatar of Cegorach? Incorporate it into a Voidraven bomber somehow?

You could test-fit them onto Skyweavers..

Maybe somehow convert/sculpt two of them together to make a big enough piece for a wraithknight and then paint them in opposing color schemes like the sad and happy masks for plays or something.
Other than that, my suggestion is bikes, or a wraith lord.

Sell them and use that money. They do, as you say, go for plenty on eBay.

They already have a nice size to use as a mask for a wraithknight, I know because I have done this already
