HT original Predator- photo thread

So, i was turning the head around so it was facing left before then out popped the wires. I know this is easy to do and also easy to avoid. If i plug the wires in the connector while its in the back pack the led's still come on. Is my only way to fix this to get it soldered?

I would say so mate unfortunately.

oh noooo, from what i see from the pic, unfortunately soldering is the only way, glue won't work

You can fix it with no problem because the wires are just cut as they should have been crimped by the protective sheath, not by the bare copper wire, which weakens them even more.
There, you have to bring out the 2 pods in metal from their housing.
Then, very gently, you fold down the 8 tabs of crimping.
Then you strip the wire on 3 mm, introduce the wires in pods, and you crimp them again, by ensuring that the protective sheath of the wire is held by the two hind tabs of the pod.
Personally, I prefer realizing also provide a small spot of solder on the bare wire area.
Finally, you re-plug the 2 pods in the plastic plug.
And voila, it will take you 10 mm and it will be like new.

Looks miles better!

I think so too. The fact that it actually fits is a big plus.

Who's mask is that?

 

[abouttreefitty]

Who's mask is that?

Bought it off of eBay. Check a few pages back. The guy I got it from turns out to be a member here, ashkanls. A few people questioned if he did a recast of someone's custom mask. To be honest, I have no idea. Maybe my pictures could help clear it up.

^ I'm pretty sure there was a big arguement over Ashkanls selling recasted TD P1 Bios.. I didn't pay much attention to it though, since he sold me a bunch of 1:6 skulls, ha.

 

[jayveeeusebio]

Great catch on that custom bio mask abouttreefitty!

Here's a link to baloo's thread for the bio, you can post on there or PM him to get on his list, but with taylerdurdem you'd probably have to try PMing him. I haven't seen anyone that has recently purchased one of his and have no clue if he even has anymore done up to sale at this point.


Edit- TD posted right below you there if you were looking to get a hold of him.

I agree 100% with you brother!! You did an awesome job on that mask, and that's your baby. Unfortunately, with no copy right or patent or anything of the such, there's legally nothing wrong with what he's doing. He just broke one of the ultimate morale codes that draws a line no one should ever cross!!!

If he ever wanted to make it up to you, he'd give you every cent he ever made off of it and then stop it all together!!
