Might as well order. OMG's pics can make even the crappiest figure look good. Indiana Jones comes to mind for some reason.

Now just imagine this great figure, it will surely be epic.

That's the problem now. Looks great in the forum. Looks crappy on the shelf.

However, this figure is far from being crappy.

Was having a long chat was EndIessRaln Last night, and he does not seem to like this figure one bit.

I've already payed full for it but I wanted it as soon as I see it but I only collect Preds from HT so it was an easy decision really. I haven't got that pressure of having to complete other lines either.

Thats the thing, OMGs pics are as close as having it on you shelf. When people just post regular pics with bad lightning, bad angles, etc, they look bad. But once in hand, it is a totally different story. But OMG is one of the few to reproduce pics close to what you will experience in hand.

But I understand your concern and with companies showing one thing and then giving something different, it is best to just wait it out nowadays.

Agreed. Waiting it out won't hurt.
At the pricepoint this bad boy is going for, it's not selling out anytime soon.

Congrats.

Good for you for being strong.
As for myself, I'm following multiple franchises.

I think more than 1/3 of my figrues are Preds, but since they announced the re-release of basically everything, I sort of lost interest to the extent that I haven't even bought Classic Predator and don't have the new P2 PO'd. Not sure if that makes sense to any of you.

However, Samurai Predator has never left my PO list...very excited.

I'm sure I would feel the same way as you if I was content with the figures I have.

Sometimes, newer figure doesn't always mean better figure.

I can't wait to get this..this is going to be awesome !!! might even get two..one to keep the way it is..one to customize

I have a feeling this will be the best 1/6 figure of 2012 from Hot Toys.

 

[toystales]

This will also probably have fewer numbers manufactured due to the probable low number of pre orders because of its price point and the fact that the figure is not from the movies.

So, it will be rare!

A few more days for OMGs pics. Im alsk hoping Sodeshow gets this early, maybe have it in hand in the next couple of weeks.

 

[Centurion]

In for the pics.

 

[RagingBull]

I wish HT would send me figures to take pictures off like OMG. I'm sure with my iPhone camera & a white cloth I could blow people's minds

 

[MxBxM]

so guys, how would you like THAT samurai pred? epic PS skillz FTW

well, i preordered mine last week, so im totally fine with the "strange" headsculpt (big takeya fan). but a traditional pred head would look awesome on this body, too. so maybe i try to hunt down a cheap classic pred head and just paint it fitting for the samurai body...we will see

Looks good, but I really don't mind the teeth. Some spots or pattern on the skin would have been great though.
