Official PREDATOR thread!

[drunk_leprechaun]

Hello! I've been reading this thread for the last few days and have become rather obsessed with the hot toys 14" predator line. I've pre-ordered both the p2 line figures. I've been looking for a store that has the Avp elder in-stock, so if anyone knows a place(other than ssc, they wont process cards from my region) do tell.

Cheers!!

Hands for Spear and Disc I Think.

 

[drunk_leprechaun]

Thank you Dassy! paint is pretty different from the prototybe, very...yellowy.

 

[Dassy]

Your Welcome!


Not sure I like the Head,the armour is looking good though.

Asia gets them about early,same with all HT Releases then 2 months or so down the line for the rest of the Distributors/Dealers.

Awesome!!!Cant Wait!

 

[drunk_leprechaun]

Wooho!! 2 p2 elders and regular predator! one elder for display and one to keep... safely...FOREVER!!

 

[screamingmetal]

Awesome! I like how they solved the issue with the hand and disk, but I'm not sure he'll be able to grip the net gun properly. I wish though that he had just one additional pre-posed left hand, I'm not a fan of the bendy hands. Separate medical kit is nice, I hope it opens up.

Yeah, but the face paint isn't living up to the proto. On the prototype, the red was a little brighter, there was much less yellow and it was more subdued, there was black circles around the eyes, and I'm not liking the dirty tan color on the forehead.

I think a slight repaint, adding in the circles and taming the yellow down a bit will improve it, but I wish they matched the proto's beautifully paint job.

Still, I'm physicked to get one of these guys!

 

[drunk_leprechaun]

Is is just me or does the paintjob on the head not match the body in any way.. i bloody well hope they dont muck up the elder like this one as well..

 

[Kuzeh]

Paint job on head looks weird indeed...I wonder if I should wait until I can see it in person?...Awesome accessories though....

 

[Rob]

Looks pretty sweet! Though I don't like the paint on the head and the paint on the skull and spinal column doesn't look as good as the proto. Other than those, pretty sweet! Can't wait till AE gets their's in!
