If you answered yes to any of the above questions, then you are a

peladophobia- fear of bald people
fig- contraction of the term minifigure for the AFOL, a yummy treat to the
muggles
peladofigphobia- fear (or loathing) of minifigs with an exposed stud on
thier head.

I used to and I still do if its a yellow fig head (or #shudder# pink head)
However when the fig is clearly wearing headcoverings due to the printing such
as this little fellah
then its all ok

Eek, but then you can see {inside} his head to where his brains should
be! While bald solid-studded minifig heads are bad enough, those poor
souls who lost their brains through the holes in the tops of their heads
are pitiable.

No, you are absolutely right .. What was I thinking..
figs without their head studs covered are indecent. Thanks for setting me
straight :)

No, theyre not brainless, theyre hippies.
Although its true that they have no noses
from which to
scoop the brains out...
What concerns me is the significance of the
solid-stud heads. Are these older figs
all Amida Buddhas? Or
have they visited the corrective phrenologist?

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Having seen the shear amount of creativity that is being put in to MOC's, I
consider these to be a form of art. So, as long as the baldness is fuctional, I
have no problem with it :-)
With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen.
