trooperdavinfelth Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 I have a query about two heads. One came in the 2003-2004 Town lineup, and the other was in that same lineup a little but later and much more frequently in the 2007-2008 Town lines. Here's the 03-04 head: And here's the 07-08 head: I always thought the top one was the bottom one, only a bit mashed up. I thought they were the same head only the top one had the same features of the bottom one on both sides of his mouth. See how his eyebrows are bushy? That's the bottom's eyebrows, only much thicker. Doubled, I think. See how his mouth is wider and off to both sides with a tip on either side? That's the mouth of the bottom, only on both sides. The eyes are, of course, the same. What do you think about this matter? Does anyone have the 03-04 head for proof? I've never seen it used in any MOC I've ever seen. On EB or on any forum for that matter. I don't have one. This is probably just a misunderstanding; the heads are probably two different heads, but I just thought it interesting how much they resembled each other. And how strange the top one looks... Quote
metalandi Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 I don't really know what to sa, but these are clearl 2 whole different heads. Even the ees aren't the same ones, The beard pattern also is different. Not to forget the eyebrowes, the aren't only thicker on the top head, but also they haven't got the same form. Quote
Shoc Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 I would say that they are just very similar faces. There are other minifig faces that look even more like each other than these two! :skull: Quote
Joey Lock Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 There are alot of heads similar with diffrent Facial Features: With Freckles: Plain: With Eyebrows: With Moustache: Quote
Matn Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 (edited) I have both and I like them. I have used the top one (04) for Lincoln Burrows and the 06-08 one for Michael Scofield. But the eyebrows aren't that thick one mine. Edited April 12, 2008 by Matn Quote

Who doesen't? I have both and I like them.I have used the top one (04) for Lincoln Burrows and the 06-08 one for Michael Scofield. But the eyebrows aren't that thick one mine. OK! Thanks, all! I was just curious since I'd never gotten any of those Town sets, pre-occupied with getting Star Wars. A Mod can close this; it's clearly a paradox already revealed. Metalandi is quite right; the beard comes all the way up and around the mouth, except for the corners, whereas the 'lefty's' mouth is not connected. Edited April 12, 2008 by trooperdavinfelth Quote

Matn Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 Sounds cool, I haven't seen many Prison Break MOCs. Well, last year I was about to built the prison and the project had the name: Prison Brick. But because of the lack of bricks I had to cancell the project. Maybe I'll just make some vigs in the near future. Next week or so. XD Quote
ExoBuilder Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 I'm just feeling the love here! I absolutely adore the bottom head, it's beautiful! Quote
trooperdavinfelth Posted April 12, 2008 Author Posted April 12, 2008 What a surprise! Does that head represent you or something? Does it look like you? (not your Lego sigfig, your face) Quote
ExoBuilder Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 What a surprise! Does that head represent you or something? Does it look like you? (not your Lego sigfig, your face) Haha, no, this one on the right looks more like me. Quote
trooperdavinfelth Posted April 12, 2008 Author Posted April 12, 2008 Haha, no, this one on the right looks more like me. Which one? Left or right... (I won't say it's left, and I'm hoping you won't ) Quote
ExoBuilder Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 Which one? Left or right... (I won't say it's left, and I'm hoping you won't ) Ha, you're funny I clearly sair Right! No, but that's a picture of you and me, just having a nice time Quote
Sir Dano Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 (edited) Maybe I'll just make some vigs in the near future. Next week or so. XD Being a big fan of Prison Break, I cant wait Edited April 12, 2008 by sir dano Quote

Lord Of Pies Posted April 12, 2008 Posted April 12, 2008 I only have the top one, so Exobuilde's sigfig is built with that one at the moment by me. Quote
trooperdavinfelth Posted April 13, 2008 Author Posted April 13, 2008 Ha, you're funny I clearly sair Right! No, but that's a picture of you and me, just having a nice time Whoops; I could've sworn it said 'This one looks more like me'. Sorry... Ohh, that was wrong on so many levels... Quote
CP5670 Posted April 13, 2008 Posted April 13, 2008 These two do look like separate pieces, but I think small variations in the minifig heads are normal. TLC's printing with the heads is not very consistent and you'll often find heads where the printed face is aligned a bit off center, or where the printing is thicker than usual. This has always been the case, going back to at least the mid 80s. It's actually a good thing in some sense, as it means that many minifigs look slightly different (just like real people ). Quote
