Pig Iron has a new "Near Future" series of heads with ballistic helmets. This is pretty close to the look I've been searching for for ages to replace cadian heads. Does anyone have shots of these heads on cadian bodies?

I'm not a 100% sure, but my friend has some third party head on some cadians (pretty sure it's pig iron). If these are it, than they look good! His models remind me of the old IG storm troopers.

I'm pretty sure he wanted pictures of the heads he posted, not the other "series" of heads they have. Going for a more modern look I'd imagine.
I too had considered refitting my cadians with these heads, at least a platoon worth or so. Might be cool combined with some of the other bits you can get from various sites(I remember seeing ALICE rucks a while back, but I don't remember who produced them...The Assault Group maybe?). Would look pretty cool mixed with their pouches and equipment sprue, or maybe the FW elysian equipment bits as well.

You're right that mine are Pig Iron, but they're different heads:
At any rate, the pic should show that Pig Iron is an appropriate scale for Cadians.

THIS.
Yes, I appreciate the excellent links to the Pig Iron system troopers heads, but I'm specifically looking for these new heads to see if they look any good on guardsmen. I want a modern look, but the Cadian helmets just look too much like football helmets to me.

You're right, TAG has ALICE packs and others as well.
