Mine arrives Tuesday. Ordered it forever ago and even had buyers remorse for a bit but these reviews have me really excited. Very glad I purchased this one.
Is it just me or do the tusks have the same incorrectly downward point that the 1/6 ESB had? Wound up not being a big deal in hand but seems they should fix that.

I admit to being inexperienced with these things so there are probably tricks that I don't know yet, but the best i could do was get it to look slightly down briefly, after which it would slowly "settle" back into place of looking straight forward. Seems like it cuts out a lot of potentially...
I got mine yesterday and for what it's worth, just about all my concerns were overblown. The mask looks very good to me, the tusks do sag where they shouldn't but it's barely noticeable. Even the helmet stays in place better than expected. About the only thing I really don't like is that the...
