Does anybody else have a Malenko where the head is always tilted down? I was wondering if this was something I could fix or if I would be wasting my time boiling and popping the head off. My gut tells me the bottom of the head has some excess plastic that needs trimming. But I just don't know.

Has anybody tried putting the classic superstars head on it? I wonder if it would look better. Considering doing that since that one had a stubble.

Mine is the same way. I have one other figure with the same problem and its E23 triple h. I haven't even bothered attempting to fix it though cause the HHH drove me crazy trying to fix and it never got the way I wanted.

You can try taking off some plastic at the back of his head. Or just tilt his chest piece higher.

You may be right about the size issue. It would be interesting to see what it looks like though. |

I read some of the problems people had on here, but luckily my Malenko has excellent head movement - much better than the average figure. It can go up and down, and surprisingly, it can tilt side to side pretty well.

Jakk's heads were huge and had more detail so yeah, some do look better for obvious reasons. |

I think they're all tilted down. I took the head off and there was some excess plastic bits around the neck hole that aren't intended to be there. I tried to cut them away as best I could. But that didn't help all that much. I think the head is tilted down is because of the way they molded the head. It's annoying, but whatever. The figure has a big head, but he's pretty sweet.
