I am looking for 1/32 54mm elf heads for conversions. I wondered about using them with old Britains to produce a fantasy figure. Any help most welcome.

Pointy ears? Greenstuff... LOTR has a race that look like elves but it would b an expensive way to go. Convert one and make a bluestuff mould and cast in mp or low melt resin (name escapes me). Do the same from a LOTR figure, which preserves the head.

Technolog seem to do sets of 54mm elves, available on eBay. I’ve never ordered from them (Russian firm?) but they look cheap enough and decent quality. Bill

I have some and the only challenge might be getting the heads off the figures as some have high collars and long hair...

Quantrilltoy I know manages to find a lot. I think there's a bucket of green elves and other fantasy characters, maybe made by Hing Fat, or Blue Bucket?

I homecast those tehnolog heads. I decapitated the archer set and the high elf set. I found the bodies on the figure too chunky for elves so I repurposed them for human figures and put the elf heads on other figs. I think this would be the cheapest way to do it: the britains knights would work well with them I reckon and you'd end up with some donor bodies for other factions my attempt at head swaps on cheapo knight figures. way too skinny for human figures; ideal for pointy eared dark elves!

On the ther hand I used their warrior women and also the ones from Technolog that are not intended as elves. My rationale is the hair covers the ears.

Is that bucket still in production or is it an eBay find?
