Haha! Sorry for the disappointment.

With all the discussion about the shoulders, I have to be honest. I absolutely love the direction CoolProps went with this line. I'm a HUGE fan of the franchise and I really love the way I will be able to display every head from all the films in a tall display case rather than hunting for large pedestals etc to support them all with shoulders/ torso etc. I'm not saying that having a 1:1 full scale bust is bad at all. I also own the original Sideshow piece and it's incredible. However we are always looking for the best and most attractive way to display our collections without looking like clutter and unless you really have a massive space to house multiple Xeno 1:1 full busts, this is hands down your best option to display them all.

Hey RottingCollector, you need to make another YouTube video posting how you feel now that these pieces (or some) are now available from Sideshow. Which ones do you have on preorder?

Cursing is mandatory in the video! Ha!

I'm not gonna lie... I'm actually with you on the display workings... I do plan on picking up a few of these and yep.. A glass case w/ lights... Been thinking of moving my LOTR collection and sticking with A&P as my main theme...

Shoulders or not, I'll be bringing that dog head home.

Not sure I'll preorder though, I'd like to see in hand pics first.

Will this have a Es? Hope they put something on these to make it different a number or something from the recasters copying these in due time.

Agreed, times three. It'll be classy, not the pile of unorganized mess that most people seem to display.

It might look classy, but it seems more like a Predator trophy wall than having them look alive.

And the problem with that is........ ?

Nothing, but IMO they are too nice to be flat against the wall, you lose a lot of the "life size" effect and they won't match any other busts if you have them.

 

[mr.thrifty]

Right...

I have been wondering how these are attached to their base... I don't think they would have the bottoms just sitting on the wood.. Wonder if there are pegs on top that insert into the underside...

 

[Xeno Junkie]

From looking at a few of the pics that show the underside of the heads resting on the bases, it appears as though they are just resting in the cradle thats cut out on each of the verticle arms. DarkMummy could probably elaborate better because I believe he has seen them first hand, or at least the prototypes.

P2 cost me £950 from the same retailer

I'm worried about the Classic, when it comes.

I'm sure he makes the prices up sometimes...

= $2171.00 for the folks on this side of the pond...

The reason why this thing is more expensive might be translucent dome is harder to cast than Pred's head. Also, harder to ship I think. Never a fan of "hanging head" on the wall though. I preferred the shoulder like HCG's big chap.

 

[mr.thrifty]

The price col is quoting is $1000 more than we're paying... Nothing to do with the dome...
