[Rzeznikk]

Has any body taken pics of Classics head on the P1 87 body? Hows that look?

Wow, can't wait for the remake. Hopefully it's in 1/6 and not in die cast.

Are they doing a remake? I thought the Classic was their way of doing a remake while at the same time doubling for the Classic from Predators. I know there is a 1:4 scale in the works but wasn't aware of a 1:6 remake. Though I wouldn't put it past HT.

I don't have a pics but I swapped the heads. That was a bad idea. It just doesn't look right.

I don't know if there's a 1/6 either. But they have to eventually do it and I'm fine with waiting. I have a feeling HT will put a lot of effort into the Original Predator seeing that after all it is the "original predator" and it's not like HTwhilst doing remakes to skip the original predator like the scammers they are. ($300 for a die cast ironman mark 9(?)8(?)? Really ht really?)

If you could be bothered with a pic Id appreciate it. It looks that bad huh?

The Classic body is too bulky for P1's head.

yeah, but also it is too good for stupid tsang head.
and as long as tsang sits in HT and rapes predators heads, the old head will stay there.

Classic's head is soo much better than the old P1 head. Better paint job, better headsculpt (more intimidating)
Right now, HT's P1 is a terribly outdated figure.

agreeing with all that, i still see that classic's head just isn't a Winston predator head, that's its biggest fail.

"Rape" seems a little excessive for not liking a toy sculptor's work...

Are the Classic and P1 heads that different in the movies? Does anyone have a good comparison shot?

 

[predarnold]

True die hard Predator fans will notice the difference. Average viewer would not be able to notice the differance between Classic and P1.

really?
giger meant his facehugger to rape human heads and expressed that just by positioning a thin tube into their mouths.
so what the sculptor should be called for making predator mouths so torn apart that their mandibles almost go back?

well may be he just is a fan of the Joker character, ok.

What on Earth does Giger have to do with Tsengs work or Predator for that matter?

analogy:

a. Similarity in some respects between things that are otherwise dissimilar.
b. A comparison based on such similarity.

Giger - Facehugger & what he does to human heads (mouth-rapes them)
Tsang - Tsang preds and what he does to pred heads (according to their mouths shape/size... mouth-rapes them).

glad to help

Yep. Something about the facial structure or jawline is off with Classic. Very off. Still, I love the paint job and the sculpt's finish.

another victim of Hot Toys Butchery (TM) begins its transformation.
as well as with P2, this is unfortunately not a face resculpt, it's a face shape fit for... something.

Does anyone else's Classic have a belt that looks pretty loose? It doesn't look snug to the body IMO



I noticed this the other day, been irritating me. Looks like his belt is too big for him, like he's lost weight or something lol

 

[Silasya77]

Just swivel the torso up.

What needs to be carried over to the Classic Predator figure accessory wise to make it more P1 accurate?

The trophy straps x2. The bone neckless. The arm wraps. The leather pouch. The upper bicep arm guard and tubing. Im also using the MMS90 Base. Optional Bloody Skull.
