So apparently someone found/casted a Sgt Slaughter head and is now producing them in what appears to be retail quality and quantities. There are a few listings on eBay, and the idea is to take that one-handed Retaliation Roadblock that shelfwarmed like crazy and head/hand swap to get Slaughter.
Does anyone know where the head/hat/accessories came from on this guy? The only "official" one doesn't have a removable hat and the head looks like a different sculpt. It doesn't appear to be the old WWE head either, though Also: has anyone bought one? Hows the quality? I've got one en route, I'll update once it arrives. |

I've been meaning to pick one up, but I got a few from AVACs Lab that I just painted myself. I hear those kits are good to go however, no painting required, etc.

I have one. I used it to make a Slaughter before I finally managed to get the SDCC Triple T one.
It is very nice, but you have to be careful with the hands. The pegs are very brittle. The gold paint on the belt comes off very easily as well. Here's some pics: The belt and duffel bag are on the Triple T version and the head and hat on the other one. You can see the head in the background without the hat on. The paint on the head is really good.

I picked up just the head, hat, baton, and whistle set. It is nice.

The head is a modified Warthog Slaughter sculpt. I think it was also slightly shrunk down, but the hair seems to match that version's.

I love these kits. I just picked up this one & coincidentally it arrived today. I had to fix some flash on his face and clean up some of the black "body paint" still left on the RB torso. This is like my 6th or 7th time purchasing with the seller and have been pleased each time. I usually just buy the head kits as his Paint apps can be a little sloppy at times. But this one wasn't too bad.
Here's a group shot for head comparison. how to deactivate It's the same head as the Sdcc just modded to have a removable hat.

I just saw his Marauder's Slaughter listing. Kinda tempted since I got the Slaughter's Marauder's set.
I asked him if he was going to make one in the SDCC Slaughter skin tone cause I'd love to put the removable hat head on my SDCC one.

I asked the same thing awhile back and he has yet to get it done. I think this new (SM) one is the lightest he has gotten this far. My next Project is the Build n brawl head on a 50th Gung Ho torso for a 88 Slaughter.
