Hot Toys Bust Series 1/4th scale PREDATOR

[MaulFan]

$75 , ok, official PASS now, even $50 would have been stretching it for all that's wrong with this.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

WOW, that's a total pass. Damn, that's pricey for that piece of plastic.

 

[MaulFan]

I wouldn't care about it being plastic if it was right, but that extra $25 I wasn't expecting now makes me care about the things that are wrong with it, hopefully those things and the price will lead to poor sales and show HT they really have to nail it with the 1/6.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

I didn't mean it as "I don't like plastic," I just meant to say that it is pricey for something like that.

 

[Bardoon]

Pass...I'll wait for the 1/6 figure.

Hot Toys hit a home run with their Rambo bust (they have Stallone's likeness down perfectly!) but this Predator doesn't have the right look. Hopefully the 1/6 figure will be better.

 

[hairlesswookiee]

not interested..... i need to save my money for my Wolf Bust and CM Predator.

 

[uselessminion]

lookin good...........

 

[uscmhicks]

wow , this sucks dong. What the hell are they thinking ??.
Jesus , I really wasn't expecting that price tag. I figured I might just buy this take a quick look and stick it on the shelf. I might buy it now just to break it in half.

 

[Fives]

the face looks okay even so i'll be getting it. what's the worst that can happen: display it with the helmet on?

 

[MaulFan]

Now I'm torn a bit about getting this, they made corrections to the face.

Old

 

[tigerfeet]

yeah i noted that they had made some minor mods..........subtle but you do notice....have on pre-order anyway....

 

[MaulFan]

Subtle, but the overall effect isn't subtle, he's gone from looking almost like a clown in the proto to menacing.

 

[tigerfeet]

agreed......................as they say....the small things can make a difference...

 

[Elder_Predator2]

I'm sorry, but what did they do?

 

[MaulFan]

I'm sorry, but what did they do?

The corrected the skin over his upper inner jaw, the mandible flare out more at the bottom, those are the obvious things, but overally he just looks menacing as he should now, the proto didn't have that vibe.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Oh, I saw the upper lip part. Thanks. I like it a bit more now. Just not enough to fork out $75.

 

[8th wonder]

This looks mighty fantastic:

Ofcourse they corrected the face because of my email. Well could be true.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

maybe, but I doubt it. It was from my email.

 

[8th wonder]

It looks great now but i'm waiting for the full fig.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Same here. I want the fully articulated 1/6 scale one more.
