HT Predator 2 BATTLE DAMAGED!

[Dassy]

Well, the SSC exclusive BD pred2 arrived yesterday. Looks good, smells good.

Congrats Back!

Yeah I too was high on the smell of fresh paint!

I thought they were quoting June for the BD Predator - I was half-tempted to be a scalper and order one for parts / conversion work, since the bill would not hit until midyear.

I wouldn't worry about the price, though - FP are pretty competitive once you factor in their very low shipping (in UK) costs against the import charges most other suppliers have.

June? That works for me as I have just forked out for a few expensive items so that'll give my wallet a rest! Have to agree with you on the price, they are pretty good for us overseas buyers and I've bought a fair few items from them when I havent been bothered about getting the SS Exclusives or just want to save on shipping. I have patience when it comes to waiting for my goodies to arrive. Besides, I have all the images from my fellow board members to keep me going until I actually have the item i hand.

Nuff' said.

Awesome figure! Hot Toys sure did some awesome job.

As I mentioned earlier, I received the BD Pred last Thursday. Awesome figure indeed. But the Pred 2 Elder is still my favorite. I like the extra's the BD pred comes with though: the Alien skull, the med-kit, the human spine & skull, and, since the Elder didn't have a mask, I'm happy to have two (BD as well) of those now too! Besides the 1:1 bio mask I already had.

Is the P2 BD, the normal P2 hard to assemble? Just wondering , though wolf will be the first one im ever going to assemble.

I love the detail on his arm, the cut one.

Well I have assembled about 12 HT predators and they all have different things that pose a challange when putting them together.

With the P2 models you have to be VERY carefull putting the belt/waist armor on, the connector at the back is small and easy to break.

With the Wolf predator, putting the waist gear on can be tricky and if you decide to modify the plasma casters that is where the hard part starts.

Other than that, putting the head on these newest figures has become far easier than the older AvP predator line. And Needle-Nose pliers are super handy when assembleing these killer models.

hope this helps you

Thanks.

Erm where are his eyes? or are you repainting him???

 

[RUMADMAN]

LOL!! no eyes!!! thats one blind Predator.

 

[Sabres21768]

Yeah, seriously...where the hell are his eyes?

Oh wait....he must have blinked when you took the picture.

 

[Dark_Spidey]

That's because of the way I took the picture. Anyway, you can hardly see P2's eyes no matter where you're taking the picture from. They're too small.

 

[RUMADMAN]

please take another picture then....

You seem to have Predators in your sig and avatar...

And the incredible figure that this is...

I think the question answers itself...

Plus it's the exclusive...it won't be around forever....

if it's going to be the only one of the three versions, I would say yes.you get'em all in one. if you already have a BD2 then thats alot of $$ for a bio. unless you are planning on selling it down the line. I guess I'm trying to say YES!!

 

[Gahgantu]

it is settled. Im buying the P2 BD aswell XD. Then i guess ill have Wolf, Celtic, Normal P2 and P2 BD. That should be sufficient for a while .

Edit: Just made purchase. Another 280$ well spent ^^. Just got my paycheck yesterday so XD. But ill have to calm down for a while now. Since i got other things to attend too, hehe. Still, i wont regret this purchase.

Too bad i had to pay 60$ for shipping. Though its express mail. 3-5 days ^^.
