Any one looking to mod this, I found a modeling site Sideshow 1/6th Deluxe TaunTaun And Commander Skywalker Rework Page 1 were he has addressed the neck seam and repainted with extra snow effects.

Looks pretty cool.

Just checked it out. He did a very nice job and it looks much better. Don't think I'll give it a go though.

It looks decent, but the photo montage on the site makes it seem overly involved - I also felt like I was scrolling for hours with very little happening. And in the end, at least to me, the juice isn't worth the squeeze. And you can still see the neck seam. Doh.

I was wondering the whole time whether it was permanent? Can you still swap the heads? If not "seams" kinda pointless.

The images are tagged with rotation data, but for whatever reason some software is ignoring it - BUT, it looks like it's only when presented through the forum software. For instance , Safari on OSX is displaying some images on their side, seemingly ignoring the tag, but if you view the image in its own window, it will display properly. Likewise if you drag the image to the desktop and then display it back in the browser (or Preview) you can see it displayed properly. Working fine in Safari in iOS 9.1

The images appearing on their side are tagged with an orientation of "6" which is 90 degrees Clockwise.

More info here: ImpulseAdventure - JPEG / Exif Orientation and Rotation

The solution to posting images on the forum so that everyone can see them properly is to pre-rotate them in your photo software before uploading. This needs to erase the rotation tags and actually transform the pixels of the photo into the new orientation.

And that's why he is the Pixelpiper

Submitted 2 bug reports to Apple earlier today about this. The other issue is their Preview app says "90 CCW" instead of "90 CW"

I really dig the hair and snow you added to your Tauntaun Mike. What materials did you use?
