HT 14" Predator full spec and hi-res pics

[Spanbauer]

I'm not sure Sideshow will have them up this week, I'd imagine they want to put them up as a big Newsletter item and I'd think being New Year's the NL will be thin this week again.

They should realize that if they wait too long, many people will have already ordered elsewhere.

Razor's Edge is a SSC affiliate Dealer.

They even list it as a Sideshow Product. How do you explain that?

Seriously, if SSC Dealers are listing it before SSC, SSC is missing out. I don't think they'd pull that unless SSC had an imminent P.O. date cleared with them.

Darklord Dave would prolly know...

I'm sure the affiliate retailers have had this info for a while and aren't afraid of potentially alienating customers by putting up pre-orders during the holidays. I doubt SSC will go back on their statement of no pre-orders during the holidays. They'll probably be up for order in next week's newsletter.

 

[MaulFan]

Sideshow's international dealers had the AOTC Obi-Wan figure up for order almost a month before SSC unveiled it.

I'm just making my guess based on Sideshow liking to fill their newsletter with big stuff, especially when new products are scarce, this gives them 3 things to fill for new figures available, I just imagine they want their next newsletter to be strong and these would help, and last week's NL was very bare bones.

To me, it means imminent. As I mentioned in an earlier post (somewhere) SSC will prolly have these up within 2 weeks. So prolly next Thursday...

I still recommend Freaks to wait for the SSC price before ordering. I'm guessing they will be 159...

We'll see...

 

[MaulFan]

I'm sure next Thursday SSC will have them up. My guess is their prices will be identical to Toys2, without shipping that is.

 

[FlyAndFight]

I'll wait for SS (if there's an exclusive) and for Dark Shadows (regular) before ordering.

There are the predator figures and the apes - SSC won't put all 6 up the same week, so I'd expect to have them spread out over the next month.

Otherwise collectors will go ape^^^^ Sorry, couldn't resist.

 

[DarthTrafford]

[Nuka Cola Kidd]

Will the pred figures be the same in price on SSC as toys2? with out shipping

 

[Voorhees27]

Only 24 of 60 Predators left. 36 sold in just over a day!

Did you get one??? I am holding out for SSC its hard tho I realy want them....

 

[Devil_666]

The only thing I would've changed about the face sculpt is this:

Hot Toys Predator

My Mod (Photo Manipulation)

Which imo makes it look better + more accurate:

Predator (Movie)

Again, just my opinion.

 

[Venomous venom]

omg...thats a nice photoshop???the 2nd more like him...

 

[Devil_666]

All I did was move up the mouth. Wish HT would've done that, instead of making the face slightly similar to their crappy 1/4 bust. Still looks good.. but imo it could be better with a slight modification with the sculpt.

yep it does look better

 

[EndIessRAlN]

Yea send that pic to Hot Toys and let them fix that. It looks waaaaay better.

 

[8th wonder]

I hardly see the difference, they don't need to change it plus that will only make the wait longer.
