HT Predator 2 BATTLE DAMAGED!

[gdb]

Is everyone having a problem with the thing hanging off the left shin guard falling off or is it just mine?

Update on the Sideshow exclusive helmet: I've found there's a way to snap it in place so it doesn't fall off. I'm guessing there's ridges inside that correspond to the head ridges.

No, I'm having that problem too - it's a pain in the arse. It's his net gun but I havnt a clue how he's supposed to hold it.

It looks like it's cut to fit tightly yet the thing that goes in the hole is way too small. I'm thinking of coating it in superglue so it's bigger but I don't want to do anything radical yet.

We dont see him hold it in the movie - we only see a close up of the gun iteself. Are you sure he's meant to hold it like that? I t looks like a hairdryer

I had that problem, i just wedged it in and it never came out again

thats how he holds it in the movie.. only all four fingers go in the slot.. he clicks the trigger with the thumb..

I have a question. I have 2 Predators, an Elder and a Wolf that has yet to ship. I am looking into getting another Pred, either the P2 regular, or the P2 BD. Which one is a better choice for the real look of the Pred, as I don't care that much about accessories and whatnot? Which version do you guys prefer?

P2 BD has everything plus more then the regular version. But he does have a bit of blood on him, so it's up to you whether or not you can live with the Pred blood.
IMO, get BD Predator 2, he's the better value. (I want one myself right now )

Wedging doesn't do it for mine. If I move him more than a little it falls out. Looks like I'm going to have to thicken it up some with a drop of superglue.

The Battle Damage is better in every single way esp. in the mandibles that allow for the open face look. That expressed, I really don't like the blood on the armor. So it's a trade off... but I'd say it's heavily in the BD favor.

I didn't like the idea of the blood at first but when I saw good pics like FACEBOOK's I thought it looked quite cool and added character to the fig. When my Pred arrived I wasnt bothered by the blood at all. I like it.

 

[gdb]

You know, I haven't heard anyone else complain about the blood, so it's probably just me.

 

[MaulFan]

I don't find the blood ideal, I'd certainly prefer a clean Predator, but for everything that comes with the BD P2, I'll take a little blood for the whole package, it's a well made, fun to own figure.

 

[Mudshark]

If I may chime in here for a moment, the only thing about the blood I don't care for is that it looks like it was applied sort of randomly, not exactly where it appeared in the movie. The color itself could've been matched better too, imo. Most people seem satisfied with it, which is a good thing. I don't suppose it will be too hard to redo the blood apps to match the movie, though. In any case, I'm not really worried about it one way or the other.

Damn this one just sold out at Toy Square before I could order one today.
They said they're possibly getting a second shipment in but I'm tired of waiting so if anyone has one they'd like to sell, let me know.

 

[vangeta]

Damn Hot Toys and their lazy butts applying the blood, it looks so lame.

 

[gdb]

For me it's not so much on the armor it's the way it looks on the neck collar and the groin cloth thingy. Just doesn't look good to my eye.

Awesome, thanks! But I've never bought from them before, does anyone here have experience with them?
