This is the latest 1/6 head product released by Loading Toys. I am lucky to get a sample for some evaluation and I would like to share my views.
As a stock product I am quite happy with the sculpt details, skin texture and paint job. Different from the previous released head product, this one comes with a moveable neck joint. The ball joint connecting the neck and the head is compatible with Hot Toys heads. The socket connecting the neck to the body is compatible with various body types.

It is compatible with various Hot Toys bodies

It is also compatible with Soldier Story and BBI body.  The Soldier Story body comes with a fixed neck pole.  The ball joint is smaller than the Gavin head socket.  This can be easily fixed by applying some blu-tack to fill the gap.

The head comes with a balaclava and a pair of sunglasses which are perfect for "Modern Warfare Ghost" kitbashing.  I have done some simple shading to make the skull pattern standing out more.  [B](WARNING: The balaclava will stain the head black if it is left on the head for a while)[/B]

I used this new Loading Toys head on my old Ghost figure.  I think it works pretty well.

The only 2 weaknesses I would say are 1) the joint between head and neck is a bit too obvious, 2) the balaclava is a bit too short.  It cannot quite cover the neck.  But other than that, overall speaking, this is a nice product with decent quality.  The universal neck joint is compatible with the popular body types in the market.  The head comes with a balaclava and sunglasses which are a must have for the Modern Warfare Ghost fans.
Oh, I think this may be a potential use of the head, too:
