Re: Predator 2 City Hunter 1:4 Maquette

Yeah the teeth . . . well - what can I say - fangs ain't what they used to be.

That's at the bottom of my "to be fixed" list of flaws. Purely because it can be hidden with a name plaque or ANYTHING that's less offensive than something reminding me of my Grandad's false teeth (* sorry - that was probably a visual you folks didn't need on the base of your $1,200 statue *).

.

Fixed!

Grandad's false teeth.

I love it!

I think I have finally figured the random teeth out.... They had to get Gary involved somehow!!

SS should consider doing a Q&A with the artists of every piece after it's reveal so collectors and fans can get their questions answered. It would put more people at ease. I too would like to know what the idea was behind the base.

How dare you talk sense around here? It's a great idea but it will never happen I'm afraid. Imagine if we did have some suggestive input... We'd have a brilliant Engineer and P2 maquette to look forward too and nothing to moan about... It really would be in sideshows interest to try and get feedback at the development stage if only to have issues like the wild dreadlocks pointed out before production begins.

Excellent theory that I wouldn't doubt! Homage to Busey!

I don't mind the teeth on the base, they're so small that I didn't even notice them until they were pointed out on this board.

Can't wait until the city hunter is in my collection, He'll have the honour of being my first maquette. One flex pay payment down, a bunch to go!

Serious LMAO - so funny! - and slightly more relevant for the piece than using a cow (* to represent the abattoir scene *).

I was behind Gary Busey in line at the airport security once. Man If I only had my cutting disk on me at the time.

LOL, that would have been one hell of a photo op!

Maybe you could have asked him what happened to his top half! I always thought that shot of him getting cut in half was a little odd as you see a load of blood pour down behind the cow carcass, but just his lower half seem to fall down.

That's it! From this day forth the base shall be known as -

The Busey Base!

Re: Predator 2 City Hunter 1:4 Maquette

Guess this is what we’re getting then? (see below)

I’ve also just heard that because of low sales concerns on the regular edition, they are going to:

1) Reduce the ES on the regular edition to 300 (from 1000).
2) Release a “Savage Edition” (ES 100) that will include Gary’s upper AND lower teeth (open mandibles) on the base.​

Haha... I think I like that more, the thinking behind it is more obvious

Re: Predator 2 City Hunter 1:4 Maquette
