title says it all. I'm looking to make up some carapace armour vets/stormtroopers and I really want to find a head that looks really similar to the Helghast from the Killzone series. For those who don't want to google images this, the heads need a rebreather & goggles (helmet optional, but preferred). Any ideas? the heads can be metal, but I really don't want to cut up a metal fig just for the head (otherwise the stormtroopers would be almost perfect)
I can do some minor conversion work, but I don't want to GS the entire face, as well, let's put it this way, the way I go, it'd make a better spawn head...

I believe this is what you're looking for:

You can get them from www.thewarstore.com also: http://www.thewarstore.com/product29988.html

If you want the rebreather longer, all you'd have to do is attach the rebreather tubes that already come with the IG sprues.

They look super nice.

The designs for the Killzone soldiers were inspired (almost replicates) of the Wolf Brigade soldiers from the anime Jin Roh. It is a slow story, but well worth the watch if you like something to think about, along with nice action sequences.
