Re: FS: HT P1 Pred, MMS67 Batman, Clark Kent, medi-spidermans, 1/6 scale Harley Fatbo
Hot Toys P1 Predator - Box is pretty good. Minor shelfwear, one corner with slight fraying. The figure is complete but not quite mint. I had removed all the parts that distinguish the 1987 predator from the newer 'Classic' Predator from the Rodriguez film and transferred them over to my Classic Predator figure. Since I have decided to sell that figure I have now moved those parts back. However all of this involved breaking a hose and the elbow bands, ripping off a pouch which was attached to the belt etc. Thus there are areas, which will be pictured, that have been re-glued. Also the loincloth covering his rear required spots of glue in places to secure it under the belt and stop it from riding up. This is all pretty discreet however, no obvious glue marks.
I did a dread-mod on him at one point, the pull em out and re-glue in new position method, makes his head look much better than the stock figure. You might see evidence of this mod if you study the 'roots' of his dreads.
What else? There's a hose on his shoulder cannon that seems to have lost its connection at one end, I don't know where its supposed to go.
The mask is a problem - the jaw/snout part is too tight/narrow to wrap around the face. Any attempt to put it on the figure
as is would probably end in failure and scratches to the face sculpt. So it needs to be softened up by heating in hot water - just be careful not to dip the electronics into the water too (the lazersight in the helmet) - which, speaking of,
does work.
However batteries will not be included, I am not allowed to send them.
Finally the stand for this figure was always nice looking but almost unusable. I think its warped or something. The stalk (holding the crotch grabber) does not fit properly and it leans backwards. I would not rely on it to hold the figure up.
There will also be an extra hand. I think its from one of the Wolf Predator releases, I don't know why I still have it.
Sounds like a lot of negatives but I'm just covering myself. The figure overall is still great and highly presentable.
