oh...ok and thanks Tahra! easy....will cut and push them into 2 hole drilled on both side of the samurai helmet! (there's another more elaborate pair of antlers I think hung on the wall of perhaps one of the 'mountain' sets...anybody having those antlers?)

I think these antlers are from a reindeer, not a deer, that's why they look odd. Blame PM for being so anatomically accurate!
You can still take the antlers from a PM deer, making him a doe!  ;D

thanks Ras for those photos...they look the right size!

and Arnaud, thanks for pointing out the difference...did a bit of reading up...I think those simpler looking horns we see on most Kabuto(s) are from the Japanese Sika deer
(so, Tahra, perhaps the more elaborate antlers from the mountain house which is nicer, looks more like those from a reindeer which did not live in medieval Japan.....thanks still!)

and Arnaud, perhaps we can also customise the doe into a warring female ;D

I'll waste $ buying a whole buck....do you think the caveman's antlers dont look right on a Kabuto?
I dont know which buck youre referring to but I assume its one of those with more elaborate horns?

Hey cheng! I have used those antlers on several of my knights. Check the KNIGHTS!!! thread, and the WINTER IS COMING thread.
Best,
A.
