* ''VideoGame/PopNMusic'' has a variant with the series mascots, Mimi and Nyami, where they are an ear swap of each other, rather than a full-on head swap, often mixed with PaletteSwap.

* All of the boxers (except King Hippo) in the NES version of ''VideoGame/PunchOut'' (Glass Joe and Don Flamenco; Von Kaiser and Great Tiger; Bald Bull and Mr. Sandman; Soda Popinski and Super Macho Man; Piston Honda and Mike Tyson/Mr. Dream).

to:

* All ''VideoGame/PunchOut'':
** The arcade games have Glass Joe/Kid Quick, Bald Bull/Mr. Sandman and Vodka Drunkenski/Super Macho Man (both
of the boxers (except King Hippo) which appear in the NES version game) and Piston Hurricane/Pizza Pasta/Great Tiger.
** In the NES version, every character [[UniqueEnemy except King Hippo]] shared a character model with another boxer: Glass Joe/Don Flamenco, Von Kaiser/Great Tiger, Bald Bull/Mr. Sandman, Soda Popinski/Super Macho Man, and Piston Honda/Mike Tyson. Mr. Dream was also just a headswap
of ''VideoGame/PunchOut'' (Glass Tyson.
** The Super NES game has Bald Bull/Mr. Sandman once again, as well as Gabby Jay/Bob Charlie, Bear Hugger/Mad Clown, Piston Hurricane/Aran Ryan, Dragon Chan/Heike Kagero, Masked Muscle/Super Macho Man, and the two Bruiser Brothers. The only characters with unique models are Narcis Prince and Hoy Quarlow.
** Given that the Wii game uses 3D models instead of sprites, this is less blatant with all of the fighters having unique models and animations, though the body type similarities still remain as they did in the NES game. Disco Kid's similar to Piston Hondo, King Hippo and Bear Hugger are both overweight, and Aran Ryan is closest to Glass
Joe and Don Flamenco; Von Kaiser and Great Tiger; Bald Bull and Mr. Sandman; Soda Popinski and Super Macho Man; Piston Honda and Mike Tyson/Mr. Dream).Flamenco. Only [[spoiler:Donkey Kong]] is so obviously unique.

* A few ''Franchise/UltraSeries'' kaiju were made using this technique:
** The most famous example is the use of a [[Franchise/{{Godzilla}} Baragon]] suit to portray [[Series/UltraQ Pagos]] by attaching a new head, then swapping it with another head to create [[Series/{{Ultraman}} Neronga, Gabora and Magular]].
** Aboras from ''Series/{{Ultraman}}'' was made by attaching a newly-created head to Red King's body and painting him blue. The suit would be reverted for Red King's reappearance in Episode 25, while Aboras' arch-nemesis Banila would also be given a new head to portray [[Series/KaijuBooska Imora]].
** ''Series/UltraSeven'' has Alien Perolynga, who was made by giving the scrapped [[FishPeople Piniya-man]] a new, avian head and repainting him in bizarre, psychedelic colours.
