Pros and Cons

Other pros and cons to consider that haven’t been mentioned above.

Pros

  • You don’t have to wear an alpha for the head, it’ll hide the default head when you put it on.
  • The HUD is really easy to use and nice to look at. It minimizes tiny as well for when you don’t need it expanded.
  • There are a lot of separate addons available for purchase. These addons get added to your existing HUDs so you don’t have to wear a bunch of them.
  • Ava specifically is a really cute, young looking head. It’s great for teen avatars, but can also be dressed up for a youthful adult look if needed.

Cons

  • The animations/poses aren’t super intuitive. Clicking them toggles them to be part of a rotation, it doesn’t automatically play them. Double clicking will force them to play.
  • There aren’t many included poses and animations. You can always purchase more though.
  • No applier eyes come with the head. You’ll have to either use your system eyes or purchase separate mesh eyes. There are free and gold editions of GA.EG eyes available.
