Head Swapping? [Vertex-Editing related question]

[Yamashii]

So I'm fairly new to the concept of vertex hacking, but I think I understand the gist of it. I know full model swaps are possible, ala the many full vertex hacks like Lloyd, Naruto, Ichigo, ect. But my question is this. Is it possible to simply take a character's head and put it on another character, without having to write a new PSA?

The project I wanna try doing is ripping Frank West's head from DR;Chop til you drop, and put it over say, Captain Falcon's body. I admit it'll probably look a tiny bit awkward, but in my mind it made sense since C.Falcon has two verticies on his head [Helmet and Face], and Frank's divided into two as well [Hair and Head].

Is this possible, or am I attempting something easier said than done? [Relative to most brawl hacking, of course...] I've tried reading the guides, stickies and the like, but it seems I'm only finding stuff relevant to a full-on model swap...

Any advice, Tutorials or whatever I may have missed would be greatly appreciated!

The only way I know of to do what you want is through a PSA. I know of no other way.

Lloyd, Naruto, and Ichigo are not vertex hacks. They're model imports. It seems like nobody knows what a vertex hack is these days.

But what your specifically saying would only be possible through PSA sadly.

My bad, poor wording. I get the difference though. [Afterall, I did say model swap twice.]

Regardless, so erm. Is there a specific guide [or guides] that might better help me understand what must be done in order to achieve the results I'm looking for? :3
