[VALVOLINER]

Like this dalekidea???

No dalekidea,this idea is from toy world forum guy.

I have used the wolf neck collar on my lost predator,besides I have used one spare medikit from preator 2 regular version (the lost predator armor has the hole and the medikit fits well)

 

[EndIessRAlN]

Looks too shiny. I would prefer a spare neck collar from wolf still.

 

[Slipfilth321]

OMG He looks awesome i can't wait to get him this will be my second HT predator

 

[Randysgut]

his eyes look weird, like spaced apart, and one looks like a lazy eye

I think you can see it through the box window. Don't quote me on that though. Either way I wouldn't worry, Hot Toys will notify your dealer if a replacement is needed. You'll just have to wait longer to have the Pred assembled.

i already picked it up because i know this will sell like hot freakin cakes.

and nope, i cant see it from the window to see if it comes with the right color or not.

i dont want to open it though. its taped and it means that i have to break the tape in order to see the insides.

in any case, actually i am in such dilemma. on one side, i want to confirm if i got the right one, but on the other side, i have to open it if i want to confirm. sigh

i dont know wahts the deal with hot toys, but if they contacted my dealer , my toy shop wont do crap to me anyway. i was thinkin if i can confirm that what i got was wrong color, then i will complain to hot toys and hopefully they can ship the right color elbow to me.

i guess i will wait for now for everybody to open theirs and if they got the right one, then so did i presumably.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

why don't you want to open it?

 

[915stag51]

That Pred needs the Les Touch.....

 

[Jaycepticon]

since he said they'll sell like hot cakes, I guess he only bought it to sell later. am I right?

 

[Elder_Predator2]

I am sorry, but i am against buying just for that purpose. that is just my view though.

 

[Jaycepticon]

me too. And I'm sorry to wilhal if that's not your intentions, but I really don't see any other reason to spend $150+ on something and NOT at least open it. It just doesn't make sense to me.

There are people out there who Collect their Pieces and keep them MIB, it dont mean your a flipper if you dont open all your Collectibles....

yea but its a model kit... so obviously your gonna keep it to sell it. or just wait a long ass time to open it

agreed!! If it wasn't for that, then just buy empty boxes. I have tons to sell if you want to display the boxes.

how much do those boxes usually go for, anyway?

 

[Jaycepticon]

Heck , I bought two Losties ( or have them on order and on the way ) and I plan to keep one in the box and build/pose the second.

I got into Predators a little late in the game. I am piecemealing an Ancient Asia together by cobbling it bit by bit because it's cheaper than buying a full boxed one off of Ebay. I'm really close to getting one loose complete assembled but I can tell you it's a bit of a chore. I've had to go through like 4 people so far to get where I am and I'm still not done. I can tell you this experience has made me realize that from now on, I'm buying two of every Predator on release. I'm not taking chances on this line anymore. I don't know what is going to sell out and when and I don't want to relive my Ancient Asia situation again to complete my collection.

On the flip side, whatever his reason, it doesn't have to make sense to you. Live and let live, no offense, it's not your money.

When I said it doesnt make sense, it was just a figure of speech, not meant to be taken literally. I'm not gonna say anything more b/c I don't want this thread to turn into an argument about something other than the figure. Let's get back to talking about the figure

I don't care, it was just a harmless question.

 

[hairlesswookiee]

man..i wonder if they'll make anymore of the Lost Preds after this guy. with no announcement of the Predator 1 the future of the Predator lineup is very dead.
~~and i love to buy these and spend an hour or two putting them together. makes me feel like a kid on Christmas again.
