The only helmet I found so far that worked reasonably well is the
bullet-styled one.  Any good way of removing that tab on the armor (stops
the helmet from fully seating, though you can leave the head piece a little
high and it works) or just hack away with a knife?  Seems kinda delicate
work for a dremel.

Hello Bruce!
You could use an Xacto knife for best results, watch your fingers!  If you
don't cut of the tab on the armor you must leave the head slightly raised,
advantage is a taller warrior.  The red head is good for fire demons,
goblins or other such denziens.  Another helm that works well (and looks
good) is the visored knights helm (bassinette style) which is just another
town helmet with visor hinge.  Remember that all printing on the figure can
be removed with Brasso, available in the cleaning supply section of most stores.
Best 'o luck!

Ahhhh, got a visored-helm here with me (shopping spree with the stuff still
in the car).  Kind of a hulking look, but that's okay.  I'm good with an
X-acto blade, I'll give that a try when I get home.

Some good suggestions.  Thanks.

I had a role-playing character named "Brasso".  :-)

X-Acto sells a #13 micro saw blade that might work well for this application. I bet you can find it at a hardware store or a well-stocked model/train store. ~Mark "Muffin Head" Sandlin (24 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.castle)
