I'm no expert on these but the holes look to be different sizes and are a bit jagged around the edges. Paint looks good though.

i think the 2 middle prongs on top of its head are wrong for a hollow cheek...

they appear more spleyed out on other pics i have seen of hollow cheeks versions.

im not sure so the more peeps the better please

It looks like a custom job to me matey The holes are fairly accurately placed but they should not have jagged edges and should be filled with silver paint!

ta.. it does looks **** as the holes dont line up very well.

its a shame really coz its a brilliant condition HK one which has been reduced to junk with a hot pin!

I've never seen a "custom" one before but I agree with the others it does look wrong.
