I hear that! What a great kit. Too bad it's a recast, and not very well made one, by the looks of it. One of these days an original will turn up, but not for that price, I'm afraid!
My Predator/Horse Alien kit came in a huge color box, with all the Art Storm stickers on it, etc. Some guy was selling the one I bought and a pre-painted edition on consignment. He wanted like $480 or something for the pre-painted one, but that was more than I wanted to spend. Besides, I liked the unpainted kit, which comes with detailed instructions for an original repaint by Takeya himself (in Japanese, naturally!). I paid about $300 for it.
All the castings are super-clean polystone, and there are also some white metal parts included. The base is a transluscent yellow-orange resin and is larger than the one on ebay. It's really a gorgeous kit and I can't wait till I have time to get started on it.
