It is. I think they used a dryer to heat it up, making the hair strands easy to adjust. When it cools it stays in the new position.
From my understanding at least, I've never tried it.

Oh I see. Seems kind of odd to me, but thats just my opinion and I'm new to the hobby. Of course, I also like things in original shape/condition lol.
Lots of people mod their figures. I purchased an extra masked sculpt so I could add the black paint around the eyes from the rooftop scene. It can be fun to do

So what is the process for heating the neck peg. I've never done this before. I can't use the masked head right now

Heck I made a whole 2nd figure with mine. 
You should warm it up with water, but don't do it for too long

Like boil water and pop the figure in it?
I tried heating it with a hair dryer, and it didn't help at all. Eventually, I just stuck a pen/Sharpie into the hole on the masked head so that it slowly expanded the hole. The neck peg hole is still smaller than the one on the unmasked head, but at least I can put it on the neck peg now (albeit not fully). And after all that, I'm not even sure if I like the masked head more...
Mhm boil the figure for about 10 minutes then the headsculpt should pop off easily.

I did that, though not for a really windblown look - I just adjusted the helmet-look into a bit more relaxed one. I heated it with a hairdryer on high heat and gently nudged the first few strands outside on both heads. It looks a bit more natural now - also, if you don't like the look, heat it again with the blowdryer and the hair automatically returns to its original position.
I just heated the inside of the head and the neck peg with my trusty blowdryer for a minute or two and after that the masked head popped on easily. There was no need for boiling water. I haven't tried to remove it yet, because I prefer the masked one, but the figure is home now (I keep it at work otherwise), so I can try to see how it comes off if you want.

Very nice photos
Thanks!
Brainy, I wanted to changed out his head for the B&W photo, cause I think that would look great in B&W, but I can't.

I've heard the head is hard to remove. Is he boxed with the masked sculpt on? That's how I'm gonna display him
No, he's boxed with the unmasked. The masked sculpt is really tight on his head (I had to warm it to put it on), but I could normally remove it if I hadn't injured my hand. I have to wait for someone to do it for me now.
