Hi I'm looking for a C-3PO head kit to assemble/weather/paint myself.
I'm quite new at this so I don't really know where to find a screen accurate replica.
I found this one on ETSY by "Toxicmodels" :



Is this one reasonably accurate ? Where else could I found decent kits ?
Thanks!

Well the one on etsy costs around 85€ but I'm not aware of how much C-3PO head kits usually cost so I can't really name a price yet. How much do they go for ?

You first have to determine if you want a display head or a wearable mask..... Starbuckcylon on this board and the bay offers a great styrene kit from time to time w all the eye pieces too....appprox 85$usd ..... If you want to chrome or vacmetalize the metallic finish, then you have additional costs......
