Second pick could be a Female freddy. Bad pick though.

I think you were right the first time due to the 'Loisellei underbite'.

I was thinking that also but the loiselli that I have seen, have that football shape to them.

Freddy's do have variability in body shape my females had a thicker body type here is a pic for reference
