HT P1 Pics here~

I hope the final one is no paint on the body, looks better that way.

I'm sure they will, I think what we see is what we'll get and that is just perfect! I can't believe how amazing both Dutch and Preds looks, just stunning! HT's could have EASILY given us a Dutch fully clothed and no need for a new body so wow!

 

[MaulFan]

I still can't figure out how they did the bio lights, the Pred's face isn't shaped to give room for the battery pack, the bio itself looks in fine scale and everything to the head and match the shape from the film, where does the battery go? Pictures look like Dutch's shoulders aren't attached to the torso, but I'd love confirmation.

I just saw the newer images and THESE FIGURES ^^^^ING LOOK SICK! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more than I expected!

Yep, I've seen all I need. Can't wait to get my hands on these.

I'd think so, since their own instructions with the muscle bodies say don't touch them with paint or water. As far as I know, there's never been a muscle figure from them with anything but the cast flesh tone.

maybe the "hoses" are like little plugs, and that when plugged in supply energy to the bio, and then there would be a switch on the back that turns the lasers on.

Though I'm not planning to get Billy right now, he and Dutch will be a lot of fun giving their camo a worn look with the lessons I got from DA and used on my Hicks, totally elevates the figure look when they appear to have been to Hell and back

As far as I can see, there are no hoses coming out of the bio, the only letdown I have with the P1, be cool to take pictures emulating the big reveal. As far as I know, Wolf's the only Pred to have hoses coming out of his bio. Even P1 bust is missing them.

There are hoses, just check the first page, the pc with the lasers.

Something interesting to keep our eyes on, Dutch is the only one that has pending approval on his photos.

Interesting too, they actually list an organization as owning the copyrights to his face.

Ahh, excellent good spot, they blend in with his dreds. You can see them here though.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

thats very intrigueing.

This predator is very cool. I think i amgoing to get him, no matter what i have to do, just too cool to pass up.

Yeh, I noticed that too.

The hoses are on the right.....

Thankfully for building this sucker, the shin and forearm units look to be like Wolf and just sculpted rather than putting armor onto the body, which is also good for the appearance, P2 would probably look a lot better if it weren't bulky armor over and already bulky body.

Figure of the year right there.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

I personally like the 'put all the armor on yourself' look better than the sculpted armor.

 

[Voorhees27]

I wonder what kind of cut Arnold would recieve for this line? A flat rate or percentage?

 

[gofourindian]

This has to be my favorite pose so far......

simply an awesome figure!

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Just like when he emrges from the river and is scouting around for Dutch.

I wonder what kind of cut Arnold would recieve for this line? A flat rate or percentage?

My guess is a percentage of all sales, if the company holding the rights is smart. Percentage would likely yield more than a flat fee unless the flat fee was so huge no figure sales percentage could top it, but if they get the rights at a flat fee and can make a number of figures off it, 2 Dutch figures with his likeness could rake in a good ammount of percentage money but because he took a flat fee for less, HT makes out, that'd be bad negotiations on the part of his likeness holders.

What really amazes me is that not the film company, but some independent group holds the rights to his likeness. I wonder if that means everything Sideshow does of his likeness has to go through both T2 licenses and this independent group. That's crazy.
