Wan this thing so bad as i missed out the first time round. I dont even care if they change the head or not just release the damned thing and take my money.

This will be my first P2 as well.
With all the delays, it better be improved over the proto.

They did that for their DX10 Terminator.

I hope more than anything that his head pattern looks as good as the proto does. I can live with the mandibles the way they are but the magnificent paint apps on the proto look so good. I really hope the production version looks that good. I only have one hot toys pred and thats my zerker predator and the paint apps on the proto were better.

Also is anyone else tired hot toys and their little led lights? Would it kill them to incorparate a real laser pointer in the mask! I dont know how to go about that myself but it would a cool.

Yes neither can I. I really hope the City Hunter still ships out next Month because besides receiving the Samurai Predator (which amazingly I do not care much for) it has been too long since I have received a kickas* 1/6 Scale Predator from Hot Toys. Oh I long for the new figurine smell that cannot ever be mistaked for anyone else other than Hot Toys. It is a nice smell indeed which fills my whole room with pure Euphoria that lasts for about 3 days. The creaking of the fresh joints as I attempt to create my first pose and just the feeling I get deep in my heart and stomach...almost the same feeling when I fall in love...as I finish posing the figure on it's stand.
That feeling is the strongest when I first open up the box to reveal the window where the new Predator figure can be seen in person...after Months of lusting over the images on sideshow's website finally seeing these figures for the first time in person makes my heart skip a beat... I get goose bumps all over.
I wonder if this is the same feeling a Father gets when he holds his first newborn.
Oh City Hunter Predator...here I lay waiting ever so patiently...while my guitar gently weeps.

Yep, true that!

Mandibles need to be worked on.
The biomask has way too much texture on it.

These are the main 2 inaccuracies I think are hurting this figure.

I guess your definition of "perfect" is different than mine because this figure is far from it.

The entire hade is shaped wrong (bcoz it's Classic's head basically).

Mug is totally wrong anatomically (again bcoz it's a slightly resculpted Classic's head).

Mask looks like it was made from a turd AND of course looks nothing like the one from the movie since it was shaped on the entirely wrong head.

There's of course wrist blades and shoulder canon issues but they're just reusing this parts from the old model kit release so not count 'em.

Inb4 we're a bunch of whiners, figure looks great bla bla bla.
