Experimental Transplant Surgery

Following on from earlier successful head transplants, I decided I wanted more personality figures for a forthcoming project. The figures need to match the originals so full customs arent really an option.
As Action Force heads are somewhat (understatement) limited in range, I decided to look further afield, and bought an MOC Star Wars Ep2 Count Dooku figure for the insane price of ?1!
The end result after liberal use of boiling water and my worst condition Space Commander was Prof, the Space Force Science Adviser:

Bearing In mind the early 1980s setting
prof was a scientist on the British SR-177 Rocket fighter project in the 1950s. Following the cancellation of that program he moved onto the Black Knight Space Launcher program, which was also later cancelled.
Disenchanted, Prof started working in the USA, and was eventually recruited into a black program which was intended to produce a Space Fighter to defend US Space Stations against possible Soviet Attack. The Failure of Skylab and lack of a Soviet threat left his fighter without a mission. The formation of Action Force gave his F-19 fighter a new lease of life as the Cosmic Cruiser. Prof joint Space Force as a Scientific Adviser, and has the honorary rank of Commander. He later led the team that produced the Triad Fighter.
It took Prof almost 40 years to get a Rocket powered fighter into service. It is a testament to his brilliance and determination that the Cosmic Cruiser ever entered service
I think Ill seek out another head for prof, as the reaction seems that this head should be for some kind of enemy or renegade.
Prof v2 and The Black Doctor

Ok then, below is v2 of Prof, with a nice face this time (Borrowed from Chancellor Palpatine). Palpatine had a very long neck. To solve this I cut off par of the plastic around the top of the stalk and also made the neck aperture on the Space Commander slightly larger.
The Guy in Black is now:
The So called Black Doctor worked alongside Prof for almost thirty years, until the years working away for no end result finally got to him.
In 1978, he tried to sell Plans of the F-19 Rocket Fighter to the Soviet Union. American Intelligence managed to thrawt his effort, but the Doctor evaded capture. He worked as a scientist for hire to a number of dubious regimes until he was approached by Baron Ironblood to produce a counter to the Cosmic Cruisers.
In Ironbloods employ he put his version of the Rocket Fighter concept into production as the Roboskull, and was pleased to see it easily better the Cosmic Cruiser design of his former Friend Prof. When the Triad Fighter emerged as a better vehicle than the Roboskull, the Doctor was instrumental in creating new tactics.
The Black Doctor has two motivations in life, one is money, and the other is to hear Prof admit that the Black Doctor is the better Scientist.
