    Prime1 Giger Alien (Big Chap)

    I understand your point, but as much as I try I just don't see it that way. If after I receive my 1:3 Predator they recast one with a simple base, I don't think I'd care because the base is part of the appeal to me. The reason I didn't like the OG alien WAS the base/wall. So, I like the new...

    Prime 1 - Predator - 1/3 Scale Museum Masterline MMPR-01DXS - Jungle Hunter Predator

    IF..... If production matches proto, it could end up being one of the best singular statues of all time. FOMO, and aftermarket prices prohibits me from even considering canceling my order. Unless... the product ends up looking like a used chew toy.

    Prime 1 - Predator - 1/3 Scale Museum Masterline MMPR-01DXS - Jungle Hunter Predator

    Sharp eye! Probably kitbashed from the Falcon itself, or they both used the same source. It's common in the industry because the general audience would never really know. You should see the list of how many times Michael Bay has reused stuff. He even went as far as to reuse scenes from a...

    Prime1 Giger Alien (Big Chap)

    The issue regarding damages, I wholeheartedly agree with. However, the minimalistic take on the Alien's new release is basically without the environment. To me, it falls in the same category as the Optimus'ssss.... They are all "different"

    Prime1 Giger Alien (Big Chap)

    Guys, the reissue is nothing new to P1. At least they made some changes this time instead of a straight repaint. (Not my image)

    Don't give them any ideas! :ROFLMAO:

    Prime1 Giger Alien (Big Chap)

    What I'm saying is that this is nothing new for P1. It's only new to Alien collectors. I collect Alien, Predator, Terminator, Batman & Transformers. All lines have been hit by weird P1 practices from the start, and it makes one realize that P1 is in it for the money. I own items that were...

    Prime1 Giger Alien (Big Chap)

    The same could be said for the opposite side of the argument. People who don't want others to have one are only in it for themselves. I'm not saying it's ideal, but people should invest in crypto if they want to make a quick buck or get custom pieces if all they want is exclusivity.

    Statue Prime 1 Studio x Blitzway: The Dark Knight: 1/3 The Joker

    I like both heads equally as much now, but the serious headsculpt really should have been included in a DX release.

    Prime1 Giger Alien (Big Chap)

    I didn't care for the statue's pointless backwall, so I passed on the OG. This one I like more, and glad I don't have to pay double SRP to get one. This is nothing new for P1, but at least in the past they changed the pose, color or accessories. It kinda sucks for those who have the OG, but I'm...

    Predator 2 Cutting Disk Limited Edtion Prop Replica by HCG

    Looks good, but not $800 good. I was excited until I realized that they already had the molds for this. The only thing new is the base, and that certainly isn't worth $400. Sure, prices are inflated in today's market, but if SS manages to maintain their PF prices... so can others. I'd like to...

    1/3 Predator 2 City Hunter - Prime 1

    Thanks for the info guys, and especially that picture Rotfish. I really thought they were the same scale. Fingers crossed that the 1:3 production pieces match up with the prototype. On a side note, anyone else under the impression that the crotch/butt armour pieces of the 1:3 City Hunter are a...

    1/3 Predator 2 City Hunter - Prime 1

    I had not realized this. Do you have an image you can share with the two next to each other? I was totally under the impression that they were the same scale. I'm a HUGE alien fan too, but again... the sizes are all over the place and is the reason why I haven't bought any P1 Aliens...... yet...

    1/3 Predator 2 City Hunter - Prime 1

    My take on the issue is that once I saw that P1 was making a 1:3 Jungle Hunter, I passed on the 1:4 JH. Now with the 1:3 JH preordered, I wanted to maintain the same scale. The two renditions would serve as nice "bookends" in my collection. So switching scale would irk me... and I therefore...

    1/3 Predator 2 City Hunter - Prime 1

    I agree. The DX has the best portraits. It's really too bad, because I would have expected a battle damage rendition (coughing up green blood) to had been the exclusive for both the JH & CH. It's all just disappointing. JH and CH releases should have been a mirror image.

    1/3 Predator 2 City Hunter - Prime 1

    Yeah, I'm enjoying the pix. Seems as though we're in some way cut from the same cloth. I drag race too, so a $5500 statue definitely ties up funds that would otherwise be going toward my ride.

    1/3 Predator 2 City Hunter - Prime 1

    I've been reading y'all's posts and kept thinking on how I remember feeling like customers were getting the better end of the deal a few years ago. P1 exceeded my expectations with size, detail, presence, etc. That feeling made me a loyal customer who would glady support them. They "sought to...

    1/3 Predator 2 City Hunter - Prime 1

    I think that's what P1 is betting on. Have the standard version be too basic, the Ultimate too ridiculous.... therefore funneling the market to the product that they actually want their customers to buy. (Even though it's overpriced) I like P1's products... a lot! They're who got me to stop...

    1/3 Predator 2 City Hunter - Prime 1

    Yup. My Jungle Hunter was ordered through Sideshow. If it sucks, it'd be much less of a hassle to return it. (My train of thought) I agree about the base too. ~Jungle Hunter with Jungle Base ~City Hunter with City Base How P1 managed to NOT do it this way is beyond me. I think if I do pull...
