Hmm..what to do...what to do???

Tied it back up; Predator FTW!

But as others have said, I'd cancel the ($5k ) car and get both!

I cant cancel the car, I pre-ordered it back in July of 08. Plus I already have a $2500 deposit down for it because its being painted in a custom lime green pearl.

None, the paint will all fall off and the colours will fade away. They really are very expensive bits of junk after a few years. I'm not really happy with any of mine because they do that, but what can we do? Not buy them? That would be a good idea but they look so cool while they last.

Really?....I've heard the argument that CM pieces could have paint issues over time because they are silicone. But I never really thought their was much truth to that. Do you have any pictures of what your pieces look like before and after? How long have you had them? and how do you display them (Ie: display case or not)?
For $2000 I dont want my Predator turning white on me in a couple years. How common is this issue?

My Pred CM had a paint issue after 3 weeks. The paint was starting to flake on the lower part of the torso. It was small, but I couldn't live with it. Not sure if this has happened to any others.

I'd go for the T-800 as I like the pose and intricitite mechanical and complicated look of the endoskeleton. Is ti 1/6 scale? Then it would look even better along my HT figs.

Dude, you're married, your balls are worthless. Buy both.

Erm, I kinda think that both these statues have much bigger WOW factor then your balls....

Most probably haha. I actually really like the T-800 pose, it's very dynamic, i know its one of the main complaints about the piece but i think it's great. The predator has the real prescence however....

Buy 'em both. You can always buy your balls back from eBay.

Ok its decided...I told George today to send me the Predator. I'll be picking it up in a week or so. He tells me the entire statue is polystone, so silicone paint issues should be non existent on this piece. I will have to pass on the T-800 for now. But I will be ordering Superman so that should make up for it
