I was arrested for selling illegal-sized paper.

Hopefully we'll get better pics soon, but I'm not disappointed with what I've seen so far.

It looks great to me. IM not going to compare the paint job colours to the proto untill i get it in hand. You know how misleading the colouring can be just from looking at photos.

Some proper in-hand photos from the collector who shared the previous ones.

It looks way better in those pictures, I'm excited to get mine now. Also he posted a size comparison. He put the head from this next to the head from the 1/4 Cracked tusk, the City Hunters head is actually bigger! So worries about this being tiny can be relaxed happily.

What’s the deal with the lower mandible?!?

The seam is horrendous and it’s an entirely different color. That is something I expect to see on a NECA 7” figure. Not a Prime 1 top shelf piece.

I believe this is how the city hunter looked. You can see this on some props also.

I think they tried to recreate the effect from the Elder, which uses the same lower mandible sculpt as the City Hunter. Looks more like a fleshy protrusion from the cheeks.



Unfortunately it's not as noticeable a color difference on the City Hunter itself. Maybe if Prime 1 had bothered to use some shading, they could've recreated the blend better.








Here's a comparison with Cracked Tusk's head. Looks to be 1/4.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Well I'm feeling positive about the size being 1/4 scale now and the netting looking good. I will be displaying mine masked. I think overall it's a nice piece to own & looking forward to finally getting it! Thanks for the nice pictures!
