I got my holy grail on Friday!

[twistedfreak]

AND WHAT A GRAIL IT IS! I was simply blown away in every way possible by this. I had wanted it for a good while and then I got it. It's thanks to Adam from DSC that I have this. So, kudos to him for it.

And here is my own little review of it.

The Predator Maquette Exclusive version is the best Predator collectable ever produced. At least, in my opinion. It stands at a menacing 2 feet in height, with a detailed base, real fabric body netting, and insane armour detailing. The paint application on the skin blew me away. The blending of all the colors was brilliant. The pose of it is pretty dang cool as well. It is one heavy SOB though. I was actually surprised by that. I think it looks like it jumped right out of the movie. A piece like this leaves very little if nothing to be desired. I could not be any happier with it.

And some pics of it:

NOTE: I will be taking MUCH better pictures of it when it's a pretty bright day out so I can get more natural light. I will also take pics of the other head on him. These were just some quick snaps.

I've been waiting to see your pics of this ever since I knew you were expecting it. That thing's gigantic! How awesome it must be in person though--that's one crazy cool piece bro!

Nice shots Tyler! I'm glad you finally got your grail item. It's such a cool moment to snag that item you've been wanting for a long time. I felt the same when I snagged the Rog it was such a special moment for me as a fan of LOTR and of SS.

 

[Captain Faramir]

Yeah, that's how I'm feeling waiting for Faramir........

 

[IrishJedi]

Awesome! Congrats!

Pretty amazing, huh?

By far, the most stunning piece to come out of Sideshow. Pictures could never do it justice.

Enjoy.

I saw he had one on his site a while back and almost bit on it. Congrats! It's one piece that I would consider one of my grails too and one day will own it.

what's the odds of getting one off of the SS waitlist?
