Your sentence is a bit unclear.
But I also had (still have) the feeling Jungle Hunter 1/3 his dreads are a bit short and missing right vibe. Some hairs should reach a bit further, now too much at same lenght (bob cut as you will).

Now some collectors are talking about giving it some extra volume. But that makes dread look even shorter on shoulder. So i will leave them as they are.

If it bothers you that much, cancel.

Won't that cost you your deposit though?

Dreads pretty much perfect. as good as we are going to get in statue form. Correct length, correct volume. Zero wrong with them aside from the beads being not 100% accurate, and one could argue they don;t have the same curvature that the prop had, but this is a static statue, not a prop that needs natural movement. I'm sure this statue will last an easy 50X-100X longer than the suit in the film.

i cringe when i see those Scott Marshall Predator heads with extra long dreads. Look pretty bad. same goes if they are too short. This piece is none of those, dreads are practically perfect. Prime 1 did their homework.




what this image has brought to my attention is, we need another head with the face cut out exposing Kevin Peter Hall's smiling face wearing the head mask. that's the only thing this piece is missing. Who's up for the challenge? that would be a REALLY, really cool head to have.

I'm getting both, but ultimately it's your decision. If you don't like it because of that, don't get it. Get the AVP instead.
