Theres a small hole at the back that it fits into, yes you could put it on your regular.

Here are a few more photos of my P1s. One is displayed like the stance of the CM Pred. This is the one that Silent Surfer painted the camo pattern on the armor and added quills to the head.
One of them is displayed like the stance of the SS Maquette, and the last one is the one with two blade gauntlets.

awww jnmx im so jealous of your p2. i want to display mine like that but i cant get the regular arm off, its stuck in a bad way. AWESOME PHOTOS !

stuck? how so? did you ever try heating the arm up with a hair drier to soften the plastic and then pull it off?

well, if I remember right actually, the regular P2's mandibles don't come off, and you can't get the mask to look the way mine does if those don't come off, if you can see, the mandibles aren't attached to my predator. but if i'm wrong, then yea, you shouldn't have a problem.

whoops, should have multi quoted lol

tried and failed. it wouldnt get past a certain point so ipushed the arm back in and gave up i dont know why, my p2 is kinda messed, i gotta get some super glue for some of the hand and arm joints that are loose as hell.

actually they do very easily. yes they are glued a little, but the whole construction is the same as on battle-damaged version, and i reassembled 2 "regular heads" without problems.

That's what I heard too. I'll just keep him the way he is though. I like my preds with their bios on. Love that techno organic look the Preds got. It's a perfect balance.

Yeah i gotta say my Battle Damaged P2 is a little..."funny". I cant get the hand that holds the throwing disc to attach. No matter how much i try, after heating it up with a haird dryer, it just wont go on. Its driving me mad and p***ing me off no end.

All these pictures are making me anxious for my 2 to deliver! Hopefully next week I can join the club.

So i just opened my predator..
and then one of the two chords that leads to the helmet broke at the white plug.

So yeah. not too thrilled with that. Any advice? I think a part of the wire broke off inside too.

Contact the seller/store. Ask for replacement.

yea the connection was super frail on mine to, im just going to be super careful. hot toys ^^^^ed that one up, i have a feeeling everyone's is going to break at some point

 

[Husker75]

i don't really think i'll ask for a replacement.. it is a big pain..
my dad is pretty good with electrical stuff.. he'll be able to fix it, i'm sure. But either way.. no matter if it was shoddy craftsmanship or not.. it broke because i was just not careful enough with it, and i have big clumsy hands. So i'll deal. Either way, i'll probably never display him with his helmet on. Which is exactly the reason why i canceled the exclusive and got the regular in the first place! *shrug*
I'll let you know if my dad fixes it though, and if he has any easy tips..

 

[jkno]

If your dad knows how to do it even better, no more return hassles etc. He could make a better connection, who knows. Let us know how it works
