NEW PREDATOR 1 MAQUETTE by Sideshow

For those of you that were curious about the separate stand for the 2nd portrait, I got this reply from Alex on Statue Forum . . .

Hi Alex

Another question about the new Predator Jungle hunter 1:4 maquette.

You confirmed that it will have 2 heads/portraits. Will there be a separate stand for the 2nd portrait as there was for the Predator City Hunter 1:4 maquette?

Many thanks - Ian.

It's being looked into but no confirmation if it will be possible yet.

I would be VERY surprised if they did NOT include a separate stand - but this is what Alex was told for now.

So there are 2 separate heads, not just one with removable mask?
As for the display base, P2 maquette got one so I'm sure this sill be also.

Yarp.

And another bit of info for those of you that were curious.

I approached Sideshow's "Alex" on "Statue Forum" (the "Ask Sideshow" thread) regarding the "2 heads vs. removable mask" discussion.

That's THAT bit put to rest

Hi Alex

The Sideshow site shows the new Predator 1:4 maquette as having "swap out portraits".

Some people were thinking this might mean 1 head with a removable mask.

Can you please confirm that this comes with 2 heads (per the recent Predator 2 maquette) and NO removable mask.

Many thanks - Ian/Spike.

. . . The piece will be like the P2 Maquette...two separate/swappable portraits. Not a bio mask that can be taken on and off . . .

Would be quite silly not to include a stand for the second sculpt, considering they've done so for the P2 and Wolf. Seriously, nobody is gonna want to leave one of those portraits in the box, lol. They are both awesome and both deserve to be displayed.

Plenty of people will leave the unmasked one in the box I bet.

I see this as a positive that it will be included.
It at least shows they are still considering it.
Personally, I believe they will have a stand for the 2nd portrait just based on their previous releases.

Why? It's not perfect, but still looks good.

Why's that?

Why's that?

Doesn't look right, and that is the proto. Production will be even worse when the factory paints it.

That egg shape on the P2 bio helmet really is a problem, but looks fantastic on the sides. But damn that old school JH 's leaning is insane, just happy we getting a new JH

 

[INFECDEAD]

Mine has a slight lean due to the foot holes in the base being too loose around the pegs. I've never fixed it cos the lean is only slight, but if they don't address that there's gonna be a disaster

 

[Titanfall]

I don't buy into the lean being a "lens distortion" as the owner claimed. For a slight lean okay, but not for a lean this blatant.

LOL! That lens must be fisheye lens.
