Re: Predator 2 City Hunter 1:4 Maquette
Lots more got pushed back yesterday.
Lots more got pushed back yesterday.
I'm incredibly disappointed no changes will happen but what can we do really.
Not buy it.
Well that is the other option of course. Personally I'd rather see it in person than regret not getting it down the line despite my concerns, especially if those changes had happened which we now know won't. People at least know what they are getting now if they choose to buy it I suppose. Hopefully somebody with a lot of talent will work on a fix for the head, below the neck on this is really nice for the most part, small spear and random base aside. Pose is good also. i know it isn't ideal having to do add or alter anything on such a high priced piece but I'm aching for a P2 centerpiece, have been for years and this one isn't far off. three small changes for me. But we have been told in no uncertain terms it won't happen so there is no sense me harping on any more.
I had a good long look at my P2 LSB and decided to wait for in hand pictures before I order the regular... It could end in tears. I feel so much better about the situation i'm in now.
I had the Iron Man LSB on order for over a year and didn't end up getting that P.O.S. . . .
Man THERE's a sobering thought!
Good for you Col - it'll all work out for the best in the end (I hope).

Oh I get it, I see your plan now Col, you pressure me into buying when I'd all but given up and then cancel letting me be the guinea pig hey?
Haha, seriously though, I think you're probably doing it the right way, with 1000 pieces at $1200 the regular is going no where in a hurry so you have plenty of time to ponder over this. We know now that sculpt wise nothing is likely to change so the paint is the big question now. The Paint on the P2 LSB was pretty horrible and this thing is half the size with just as much detail so lets just hope they send this to their best painters and do it as much justice as possible. The P1 maquette was great so they do have it in them, or did, not sure if they have changed producers at any point, some pieces seem to come out looking a lot better than others. Might be wise to just PM Lee and ask him to keep you in the loop if stock does get surprisingly low down the line.
The paint work on this P2 will be incredible as Joe Dunaway has been given the job and his painting skills are second to none.
Sarcasm doesn't translate well on forums as I have found out to my cost many a time lol, But I'll assume you are joking and just agree. In that case this will be epic
Ahh. He is one of the best no doubt, pretty sure he won't be painting the one's we get though I'm afraid.
