DM :D
Yea newer heads are better for special characters, KK1 and KK2, starwars like obi wan, qui gon, luke, they show more expression to that character. Like Dr. S. said, the Falcons just dont look right in any other faces than their classic smiley, dont know why...

The Ninja heads are my personal fave. Especially the one belonging to the Red Ninja Master, which was also used for the Old Samurai (red).

My favorite head is the "aqua shark" guy which also appears in the rebel snow speeder set. That hair over the one eye is so rad.

I also like the spyrius guys with the head bands.

None are official castle, but the can work for castle just the same

Smilies are the classics, but it's very hard to do battle with them because they look happy even if they're dead!

Smiles look awsome but the printed heads rock!

There's something surreal about all my Napoleonic (Pirates line) soldiers lined up with vacuous smiles and about to be mowed down by shot and ball. Yet, it is oddly appropriate for their cannon fodder station in life.

Don't like it as much for medieval figs - I want a little more personality in them.

My thoughts exactly :)
*And the bulls arrive in kk2*
Cedric the bull: "Hahaha Leo we're here to- wtf?"
*and the bulls see some happy knights bouncing at each other with carts*
Cedric (shocked): "I guess we got the wrong KK''
Bull soldier (frightened): "Lets go back"
