I'm thinking I mite just be especially cruel to my wallet and order hot toys city hunter and sideshows 1/5 elder predator. Just watched a video for both and I want both meow.
 
I just noticed something for the first time ever while watching the Predator 2 blu-ray:

In the scene where the pred is medicating himself in the bathroom, they show a closeup of his face and he appears to have a forked tongue. Just thought I'd share my observation.

Also, it seems all the alien trophy skulls I've ever seen, whether in the movies or in collectables, never seem to have the human looking eye sockets and nasal cavity part of the dome. Why is that?

The alien skull with no eye socket is because the eye sockets were from the first alien movie big chap design, and the aliens from p2 and avp are based more on the alien warrior from aliens, who has more of an armored forehead with no eyesockets.

That makes sense. It'd be cool to see a skull with the sockets.

I agree, that'd be **** for sure. Although, I'm not sure how that would fit into the context of the movie.

There culture is built around the queen to supply their hunt, she is the ultimate prize for a pred to kill, there is a queen skull (that wolf probly killed himself) in the trophy room in the pred ship that crashes with the pred alien. And wolf is like the ultimate alien hunter, half his face is burned off from acid blood from many battles with aliens and if the "oh $h!t aliens are loose" distress call goes directly to wolf, what pred could possibly be more worthy to come with a queen alien skull. I really think this fits perfectly into the context of the movie. If nothing else it would make an epic sideshow exclusive :pray:

Man, I totally forgot all about that scene and had never paused it to analyze all the trophies. I forgot just how awesome the beginning of it was with the ship and the pred planet, etc. The movie in general was a major let down to me, except for all the predator stuff of course! I remember reading somewhere about the scene of the wall of bio-masks...do you happen to have a screen cap of that?

Sorry, this is the only video I can find on youtube. Right at 5:12 is what I'm talking about.

Very interesting, it's hard to make out in that video, but I definitely see what u are talking about, never really noticed that either. Oh and chopper and the ancient masks are on that wall, they reused alot of their designs on there, probly why they don't give you to close a look at it. So cool tho.
