I find it odd that you can assign such import to what you perceive as fangs yet completely dismiss any relevance to such an elaborate head dress. Can't say i have ever seen such a head dress on a Javanese raksasa. I find to hard to believe that it has no significance for this figure. But i suppose sometimes a hat is just a hat.
