Half face is one thing, half skull is not quite the same. Tearing off the surface skin and facial muscles while leaving the skull itself mostly intact can be accomplished with a wider range of firearms, but then it's not guaranteed to kill.

As for toy replicas, I wonder if Battler was anywhere nearby when Hideyoshi discharged Rosa's gun in Ep3. If he was, toy replica it was not.
