Ohhh... never sell something you still like! Especially if you are starting to miss it before its even sold! The feeling of regret would be horrible!

But id still say sell Celtic over Scar. Get a bootleg Celtic Mask or push TD into making a Celtic ( i know id buy ) and just swap the mask around with your Current scar ( and remove ab armor ) so you can choose to have a Celtic or Scar on display! (with a few minor differences)

The thing with that is that the HT Celtic bio is actually really good and so far no one has made a recast that's just as good. And it may be easier for me to get a decent an armor replacement than a Celtic bio. I think I may sell Scar instead.

anyone have a Celtic and chopper for sale?

Dude you just sold a Chopper! :lol
 
Made up my mind. Selling Scar. Actually took him apart. It was a lot of fun too. Included TDScar bio in the sale too. That hurts more than the figure. :lol
 
I was toying with the idea of selling my Celtic Predator. I was actually thinking of contacting the original seller since he'd expressed some interest in buying it back some months ago. However, I just can't bring myself to do it. I'm probably going to get rid of all of my old style Predators, save Machiko, but I really want to keep the Celtic.
 
I just took my Celtic and gave him all the weapons that HT included with the figure. Spear, Cannon, Chopper Blades, and I swapped him into Bladed feet too. Man he looks like how he SHOULD'VE went into battle instead of the styrofoam armor and blades he had. I am soooooo keeping him. Sorry Scar but you gotta go.
 
Still thinking of keeping my oldies. How are you guys going to fill the void before the new versions arrive? Or have you guys just no longer hot about these figures?
 
With the Classic, the Super Predators, and Shadow Predator in my collection, I'm feeling pretty good for now. Predator 2 is on the way and I might get two of those. The fact that we're probably going to get new versions of just about everybody and they'll have the updated paint apps and body style, makes parting with the old ones less painful.

Statues...:lol
Oh and just keeping that one Pred I love from every film. So Berserker, Wolf, Celtic, and a converted Classic/P1. I still have my original P2 with TD's bio also. Makes me want to pass on the new P2 unless if they fixed that damn bio. My biggest gripe about that figure!!!
 
I guess at some point or another they will re-re-release everything. I guess constantly updating your collection is part of the hobby now. Haha its a never ending trap because no collector is EVER (truely) satisfied.

edit: just to clarify, i don't mean this in a bad way at all. Personally I claim to be a big HT Predator fan but I don't even have Classic yet. I think I got kind of put off by the "re-releases" even though classic isn't technically P1. I still intend to pick up "new" characters though (if any more come out).

Personally, I hate selling stuff. It's a big hassle. Especially with the older model kit style Predators.

I'm like that. I worry about the tinest blemishes which I always mention & then comes all the questions & chanceres asking if you'll accept £50 cash when your got it up for £150 etc etc :lol
 
I get folk messaging on ebay giving me offers then explaining to me that the offer they have sent is perfectly acceptable for what i was selling. I got some morons offering me £80 on my 1:1 boxed sideshow Bio Masks a few months ago and telling me thats what they are worth because he saw one end for that price the day before.

Which he didnt. Folk also make up lies about seeing items end the day before or last week for a certain price to try and trick the seller thinking they are dumb. And if they get an item adn they maybe find a ding on the box or a bit of a blemish somewhere and act like " this is totally unacceptable " ect.

The first Scar pred i sold i mentioned something about its neck (but clearly stated it was not broken) and i got a message off a guy asking me to sell it £180 because of the broken neck (that it didnt have)

Some people need a right good slap.
