What else is going to be moulded and sold?
I know the repro head thread mentions all sorts of goodies like aerials, tank machine guns, paddles, and other bits that the Action Force Gnomes steal with alarming regularity.
Stevey Stevey D, where are ye?
Perhaps he can cast himself some new manberries whilst he's at it!

here you go, the neck socket is a bit shallower than the noraml ARAH, and the neck ball is about half the size, but I think an ARAH neck ball could fit?

My dearest Spec Ops.
To whom are you referring? Surely not me? Never sir, I won't hear of it!
The object in question is defined thus in the OED:
a "pattern or template used by a mason, bricklayer, etc., as a guide in shaping mouldings; hollow form into which molten metal etc. is cast to cool into required shape".
For which, the aforesaid higher authority gives 'Mould' as the correct spelling and 'Mold' as the alternate, but both are technically correct. Incidently, both spellings are correct for the word defined thus:
"wooly or furry growth of minute fungi on things of animal or vegetable origin that lie for some time in moist air"
Which, by something of a happy coincidence, is an apt description of you and your family!
Hence, I shall ask you kindly to take your cheese from the cheese counter at Tesco, write out your ill-chosen and misguided words on the surface with an implement of your choosing, and push the whole thing up the "terminal excretory opening of (your) alimentary canal"
With kind regards,
Hopper

Dragging things back onto topic I'd definitely think a rah head would be best for this. You would have to file or sand the ball joint of the neck down to a half crescent, but I think that'd be about a ten minute job?
Let me know if you want any - I'm 90% certain they'll fit with minimal amount of effort.

"over here!!!!!" (to be read in the voice of scoobydie doo!)
first, and foremost - I keep the man berrys well away from the plastics - although perhaps if I were to make a mould it may open up sales in other markets?? After all, there's only so much steved lovin to go round, so a replica hmmm, i'll add it to the list...
Now, back in the real world - I have indeed got some good stuff planned. Lots that was mentioned, and some that weren't. In next month or so I hope to have laser ext support legs and monitors available, aswell as mountain and arctic legs. After that I'm going to be trying some rubber hats, including experiments with

hat, removeable sas hats. Possibly trench coats. These are stepping out into new areas for me though, so will have to see how they come out!

I know it's SAS, but at first glance that's what i saw!
Looking forward to the SteveD shop opening for business!
Especially for aerials and ass hats
