One word of warning - I bought a set of these and when they arrived, they were noticeably smaller than the plastic heads - so much so that I couldn't use them! I understand there was some kind of problem in the production process that caused them to shrink. The Victrix guys were aware of the problem and working to fix it, but I've never heard if the problem was resolved, despite the fact that I sent a couple of e-mails with the question.

I guess if they are still selling them, they fixed the problem... anyone else here received any of these?

Thanks Clarence I'll wait and see if I can see them in the flesh before I make up my mind

Bought mine about 2 1/2 month ago (and spend the the last month looking for them to comment here).

Mine are a tiny bit smaller then their plastic counterparts (heads), but I think that this is not noticable IRL. Not sure if these are remodeled or it is just a question of perception though!

Cheers,

Burkhard
