The imposter assaultron head that got added with the recent update is a weapon not a skin. Even with all the materials and required perk the new weapon is uncraftable. Heres two videos the first showing that i cant craft it and how its a weapon not a skin and the second is my level four character showing again how it is a weapon not a skin.

EDIT: After spamming the make option on the imposter head for a long long time super duper kicked in so now i got it. So yeah it is a weapon that is available in the atom shop and not a skin. Rather or not it is supposed to be a weapon or a skin is not 100% sure yet but the news section in the main menu and the 8.5 atomic store update says its supposed to be a skin. So Bethesda if any of you guys see this please explain what is going on with this thing.

Thanks for reporting this. We're currently investigating reports of difficulties with crafting the Imposter Assaultron Head.

Additionally, just to clear this up, the Imposter Assaultron Head is a separate weapon and not a skin of the base weapon. So, in order to craft it, you must also know how to craft the base Assaultron Head weapon. It also has the same crafting requirements as the base Assaultron Head: Science Expert 01, Level 25 minimum, and a scrapped Assaultron Head. We've also corrected the article on Fallout.com, and I apologize for the mistake there.
