Hi there,

I'm starting a collection of AdMech and am particularly fond of the Skitarii Ranger heads. More specifically I want to build my force including Vanguards, Pteraxiis, Sicarians etc. all with these robed heads.
Now as you can imagine I stand before the question how to get them for good value, as some of the mentioned units (like Pteraxis and Ruststalkers) don't come with these.

I'm aware of these from Anvil:
https://www.anvilindustry.co.uk/hooded-heads-gasmask


and these from Puppetswar:
https://puppetswar.eu/resin-models-and-bits/all-bits/heads/tech-monks-heads.html


and finally these from Blightwheel



But while all three options are nice, none of them really fits me that well. The Blightwheel ones are "too human" and the other two look a bit too... I don't know... streamlined? to me. I'm looking for cables , multiple optics like 3 eyes, different sized "eyes", antennea sticking out of the head, like on GWs Skitarii heads.

Does anybody know a source for that?

For anyone with similar problems: turns out you just chatting with your local GW store guy already helps. He let me rummage through their bitsbox and I got 5 Ranger heads for free.

Oh! I thought you were specifically looking for an alternative to GW Skitarii heads. If you weren't in Germany, I would have sent you some of mine!

Oh, than I was unclear. GW Ranger heads would be fine too, my main concern is that I will like to get 10-20 of them for good value. So if there is someone from around EU that has some spares, that would also work fine.

I'm also considering "just" converting Sicarian and Pteraxii heads into robed ones with greenstuff. Might also work.
