Thanks Anthony,

Amusingly enough the original design was exactly as you described (studs out version) but it looked a bit bug-eyed so I moved the eyes on top. Thanks anyway.

Ok, one more idea and then I’ll leave you alone.

What if you removed the parts above the 4x4 round brick you have there now, and instead attached three of these to it, lined up above where the technic holes of the 4x4 round brick.



Then, put a few more plates on the 4x4 round brick to act as an anchor, and then attach a 4x4 blue radar dish on top to give the head the dome look.

Next, attach one of these to each of the 1x2 plates pictured above:



So that they lay over the top of the radar dish. Then just attach the white 1x1 round plates to that.

Not sure how good that’ll look, but it might be worth a shot.
