Shopping Secondhand Volks Classroom heads

Feb 14, 2024

    1. Hi! I'm not entirely sure where to ask this, so I'll ask it here

      There's a second hand Volks Classroom C head that I'm interested in, but it does not have its headplate. In the description, the seller says that the classroom heads don't come with headplates, but I've seen a listing of a different classroom head where it has a headplate with the letters SCHOOL written on it.
      Is it normal for classroom heads to not come with headplates?

      Thanks in advance!

    2. Only the more recently cast ones come with head plates. Many many many did not come with one from the past.

    3. I have an older School Head C, circa 2007/2008 - purchased from Yahoo Japan. She didn't come with a headplate and I remember being very concerned at the time. Apparently that was the norm up until the last year or two. I know several other people with school heads that are a bit older and none of theirs have headplates either.

    5. @Miistery Doesn't it?! Why'd they bother leaving a space for it to leave it empty :lol:
      Surely, Mother SD had a good reason for it
