Heres a few snaps of my CITY HUNTER PREDATOR.

I m happy with CH 2.0 in general , it just felt like there could have been a little more care done when producing the figure and I really wish they didn't recycle old parts such as the gun . I also wish they had painted the head better , it was just sloppy and there was washes of brown everywhere and the head sculpt allthough is somewhat accurate , in particular was just poorly executed. Infact I tried to fix myself repainting it a while ago , but it just didn't turn out good. ordered a second head and the picture is the below photo . So the head is 2.0 , the first head im keeping a spare for a rainy day

I repainted my headsculpt ( CROWN AREA , TEETH , MOUTH INTERIOR ) to how it should have looked . He looks 10 times better now and I also went over the dreads a bit .

I also modded the mask and put a piece of Speaker cloth over the top and adjusted the overall fit to the head .

I never understood why they gave him gloss lenses when they are clearly mesh in the movie , and yet give Classic Pred mesh lenses when they are gloss in the movie - WACKA WACKA .

I also did some dry brushing to add some gold tinges here and there just to give it more of a coppery look rather than a chocolate look.

I enhanced the wrist gauntlet computer screen to a nice bright fluro red to give the illusion of led light .

I was going to pick this up from Sideshow with the HAPPYHARLEYDAYS coupon but their stupid stipulations won't let me use it since it has free shipping. :(
 
I was just looking at the stunt head of p2 and it looks almost exactly like the hot toys v2.... I wonder of that's what Tsang used as a reference.
Unless the stunt man were the same eight as kph, am pretty sure it was a different head...because he was not disproportionate

I feel your pain. I tried to use the HAPPYBDAYSTAN code but I think it expired an hour ago so I guess I'll have to wait for a sale or something.
 
Loving the pose darkmoon2112. :clap

I need to put my City Hunter in a full BD pose soon as he has been in the same pose for a while now. :(
 
congrats steve! there's a lot of haters of this figure, but I love mine.

When I was at Monster Mania in NJ last August, I was going around asking if the usual 1/6 dealers had City Hunters available. Two guys said that the reaction had been so negative that they didn't bother bringing them, and yet the third dealer I asked had brought several and sold them out on the first night.

Personally, I love the figure too. He's my favorite HT Pred release yet.
