Mystery part ...

    Hey, all -

    I have the Sabot Miniatures bust SMFB006 "Pueblo Indian". There are only three pieces: the main bust, the feathers, and a small, finger-like piece on a separate sprue (pictures attached). For what it's worth, the same part appears in both the 1/12 and the 1/6 kits.

    The box art is very dark, and I've searched the internet, but I can't for the life of me figure out what the mystery part is or where it's supposed to go.

    TIA - Any help will be appreciated!! :)

    Not familiar with this bust but like it. Looks like a tooth that fits in that recess on his temple area based on the pics relative to size. too small for a horn. Tip looks broken off. I'm calling it a boar's tooth.

    It looks like the end of the upturned strand(s) of hair on the right side.
    Have a look at the following box art:-

    A picture says a thousand words.

    I can see it in the box art now, but only because I know it's there. I thought it was a claw of some kind, part of the ornamentation, so I never even thought about looking in the hair. My robot-like cognition fails me again. :unsure:

    Glad it's solved , I would have said the hair strands

    Happy benchtime
