Side by Side: SS Wolf Bio vs. HCG Bio

[turtle]

Finished test fitting the HCG Bio on a custom stand so I figure I shoot some pics of the two side by side. Stand came out really good.

Which do you prefer?

 

[thx217]

The one on the right. Always.

Great job on the stand. What next? A full cannon?

 

[mr.thrifty]

what's the price difference?

 

[Elder_Predator2]

I have no clue, but maybe like $700.....

HCG Bio MSRP $1000

Sideshow Wolf MSRP $299.99 (market price of $450 - $500)

I really like what you did with the stand. I know quite a few people were after something like this. Mine is up on the wall for now but maybe I would try and do something just like that in the future. Well done chap!

Thanks Amazeing. The stand is made with 2 pieces of solid 3/4" aluminum and 1 piece
3/8" aluminum for backing. Quite heavy. Here is a better look at it:

Hia

great stetup mate

IMHO the HCG is the one that winns this one by far ,,, its a great looking bio with only the price as a downside to it.

Im planning on buying it myself but i was put of by the fact that it had to be wallmounted ,,but you seem to have come up with a solution to that problem.

Any chanse that you could tell me the messurements on your stand so that i can have one made myself

I know it was always 1:1 scale, but I never understood how big it was until seeing it next to the Wolf bio. Thanks for sharing

Looks great, cool stand. I prefer the wolf bio, thats just me. I love the horns and the symbols on that bio.

Just ordered the HCG Bio a couple of days ago, looks like I made the right choice. Thanks for the pics

They look great, but you should take a blow dryer to the dreads so they lay flatter.

Just got mine today (18/1000) but only 2/3 of the lights are working. And for them to even light up properly I had to fiddle around with the battery connectors. My retailer is looking into it, but yes the battery compartment is flimsy.

Sorry to hear of your issue. I have heard of the issue before here: https://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=54423&highlight=hcg+predator

Hope they resolve it for you.

that is a really low number. but not good for the lights. hope you get it worked out!

All good. My retailer is going to replace the helmet, including postage for me sending it back.
