Styrofoam Head for Displays

[great1]

I was curious if anyone uses styrofoam heads in their collection to display some of their props? and if so is there any restrictions to using them? Please feel free to post images too if your willing.

Because the styrofoam can be lightweight if your helmet/headgear is front heavy or back heavy it may tip the head over. Also most styrofoam heads I have found are on the small end, which may not be a bad thing.

I use one to display my Logan's Run carousel mask and hood.

the lightweight issue can be resolved by gluing a 5lb weight to the bottom of the foam head.

I am planning on using one for a very lightweight mask so that shouldn't be a problem.
