Prime 1 Jungle Hunter 1/3 Bust

[Dundee]

The pred heads all have a bit of movement when pegged to the neck magnet i.e they can be tilted a bit to our right. Tilt effect should in theory be there, but it won't be looking upwards, unless the statue is on a 1 metre pedestal or if you squat on your knees lol

I've noticed each statue has slightly different head positions depending on the Mould. I believe the dread in that pic if not caught between the seam would result in the head tilt. I know the guy who posted that pic, i've messaged him asking if he can take another pic without the dread in the way so lets hope he gets a pic for us.

Even the prototype (full statue) if you watch the 360 video, all the different portraits, they all slightly tilt to our right (predators left).

Some portraits don't have any tilt whilst others tilt in the opposite direction to the prototype. Definitely due to little variance of the mould. Could also explain why some pieces look like their 'leaning' when in fact it's due to his head position.

I think some statues have a slight lean look due to torso position too not just the legs. I've seen some perfectly upright while others having that illusion of a slight lean. Cameras play a part too

[Dundee]

I don't think the legs or torso lean or give the illusion of lean, they sit pretty flush. There's a short video of the closed mouth bust head tilted upwards (prototype), it looks like it's leaning because the head is tilted sideways. I reckon it's all in the tilted head position that make it look like it's leaning.

Without the dread between neck, this portrait would look more downwards for sure (while it was advertised as more upwards than other portraits / plus the movie tilt).
Anyhow Prime1 confirmed on facebook page, they removed the advertised head tilt so all heads look mostly forward in same way (better fit on statue).

Oh okay that makes sense, thanks for the info all!

Did they keep the misaligned right eye?

Nope it?s not the head that gives the lean illusion. I have pics of other collectors statues from certain angles that show the illusion of a lean and it?s definitely not just because of the head. I?ll post a pic below.
Also the promo pics are taken from a lower angle to show the head tilt. I asked the owner of the closed mouth bust to remove the dread from the seam and take a pic front on. Head tilt looks present in my opinion

Thanks for this info can you show me where prime 1 said this? I?m not sure what makes you think a dread jammed in the neck seam being moved would make the head look more downwards, if you move the dread it would then tilt and look up. I asked the owner of the bust to take a pic front on and from the same angle as the promo pics. Here is the result with the dread moved from the neck
