Basically, it's exactly what the title says. I have an HFTD Leader-class Starscream with no head. Ideally, I would just buy a head, but I esteem it unlikely that someone would have one for sale.
As such, I'll probably have to make my own. To save myself the bother of replicating it completely from scratch, I would like if someone with an intact one could take an impression of the head with Play-Doh or other cheap modelling clay, let it dry to hardness, and then send it to me. An impression of each piece or at least of the head with the jaw open would be ideal.
This thread's original purpose is now obsolete (see bump post for why) and it's my closest want thread to the top of things, so I'm repurposing it for my parts wants.

A new priority has come up due to my lack of wiring repair skill and frustration:
Donor/junker Armada Super-base Optimus Prime cab with intact electronics. Original color scheme.
Don't care about accessories, don't care about the grille, don't care if the super mode plumes or even the super mode head are missing, don't care if he's discolored, don't care if the forearms are broken off, don't care if the battery cover's gone. Just as long as the electronics are intact... The ones in mine are damaged and beyond my current skills and resources to fix. Won on eBay

Seriously, all I'm asking is for someone to wrap some offbrand Play-Doh around Starscream's head, and then carefully pull the clay off and let it dry. Surely that's not too much?

I'm not even necessarily asking for someone to take the figure apart at this point... Just to wrap a small lump of cheap air-dry clay around the head (ideally with the mouth open, but I'll take what I can get) to make an impression of it, then carefully pull the clay off and allow it to dry fully before shipping. Which I will pay for, in case anyone thought I was expecting it for free.

All I want is someone to wrap some cheapo clay around Starscream's head like I've done to Snarl in this photo...


...and then carefully pop it off to dry, as seen here. Although you would ideally cut it in half before popping it off.


Like so.

Then, once the impression has dried, box it and ship it to me so I can use it as a mold to make my own duplicate head.

Is that really so much to ask, especially if I'm going to pay?

Modified the title and first post to clarify something. Obviously if someone had just a spare head, that'd be great. But I don't think that's very likely, so...

Bumping on the off chance someone sees

Managed to score another beater Leader Starscream, this one with the head still present. As such, this thread is now useless for its original purpose and I'm reworking and bumping it as a parts want thread (because it was my closest thread to the surface of things).

Throwing in the towel and adding something new to the wants.
Wound up winning one on eBay..
