Statue Predator 2 City Hunter 1:4 Maquette.

The Hot Toys Endo is too small. The Hot Toys MK43 is properly sized or maybe even a tad too big. Either way you cut it I'm just glad that it's a sizable piece with presence.

Yea, I would not get it just because of that, you can always adjust display area to lessen the discrepancy. I just got my P1 Bats too, that is a great piece. I am currently selling my P2 EX.

Why are you selling? Just not happy with it overall? I like the disc exclusive but landing that at retail would be tough. Good luck with your sale.

Ok, a bit oversized...

Statue (minus base) 63cm.
63cm x 4 = 252cm.
252cm = 8' 3".

City Hunter approx. 7'8"

Oh, it definitely has presence. I was impressed when I first opened it.

I hoped a lot of the issues were fixable, so I ordered and gave it a shot to see in hand how hard it was going to be. The EX disc hand is probably my favorite piece of the while statue, lots of detail and adds interest to the right hand where there is none with the regular(I have the 1:1 disc so that may be why I like it so much). As for the rest after doing what I would need to fix in order to be happy it was just not worth redoing basically the whole statue. For those less picky it is a nicer piece in hand than it looks in pics.

Ah ok.. I'm definitely in the less picky bucket lol.. But I am also a casual Predator fan in general. I like the P2 design but I don't really like the movie so I'm totally oblivious to the inaccuracies since I probably won't ever watch the movie again in life lol. P1 is a different story.

So only about 2.5" shorter than P1 Batman. Not bad. Never understood why some pieces and figures are designed out of scale like that. Works out for me in this case. City Hunter is a bigger predator than Jungle Hunter right?

Yup...

Wiki has Jungle & City @ 7' 8" but I'm pretty sure City was meant to be bigger.
Maybe City was closer to 8'

City was the older, more experienced of the 2 so he may have been a bit taller.

I was just reading up on avp.wikia.com it says: The City Hunter seems to be slightly taller than the Predator in the first film. In the film's commentary it is stated that he stands 8 ft tall.

His bio mask is extended slightly upwards compared to the P1.

Many have said the Jungle Hunter was the more experienced

Huh? I remembered that it was written in Predator 2 collector's edition DVD booklet that the director wanted him to be differrrent as it stated that Jungle was the older preds of two, a skilled warrior who hunts alone while City was a hot-headed, big boy, younger warrior who is not as experienced, hence why most if not all entire clans are with him.
You could clearly see this by watching City jumps into Key's team in slaughterhouse rather than dealing with one at a time like Jungle's though.

Still, City was always designed to be bigger. As far as I know.

I can't remember one way or the other for sure, but it always SEEMED like P2 was bigger - the head/crown helps give that impression as well.

As regards experience, P1 for the win.

[Collectorcol]

Yeah, P1 was the far better hunter...

Until the 'Super' Preds came along

 

[mr.thrifty]

Well... This guys on my radar now... Looking for one at a price I can swing...

If anyone feels like posting up some pics of this guy in their collection I'd appreciate it.. Sway me one way or the other maybe...

 

[Royce12]

Mine arrives on Friday! I'll be sure to get some pictures up.

 

[comicbookguy]

Still no conversion on the ex yet. Hope it happens. I need this.

@ Royce: Hope yours is OK. Beware of the claws when you unpacked though. Otherwise it's very stunning piece in person.
@ cbg: Why not just buy reg? This isn't EX or FAIL piece. Do you really need the hand with disc?
