Good call, celticjoe. GI Joe Heaven is a member here so maybe a PM would save on ebay fees?

No2 x 1/4" self tapping pan heads
No2 refers to the outside diameter of the screw which coincidently happens to be 2mm which is the same size as Joe screws
the 1/4" refers to the length which is just less than 6.5mm Joe Torso screws are 7.0mm long
the only thing I am concerned about is wether or not the screwheads are bigger then the Joe ones ?
I have bought 2 bags so we shall see !

The pitch looks different too, shouldn't be a problem tho as its just tapped as its screwed in.
I got a bag of about 20 or so screws with a job lot last year, I'm all out now so if these are OK it'll make life a little easier.

I havent tried one yet, but if they dont i can always file a little bit of the length.
update ....... these screws are slightly tight in the legs !!
perfect size for torso's tho once the point is rubbed off the end of the screw.
