Wolf Predator bust. who's on board?

[hairlesswookiee]

You are probably willing to seperate the designs from the film itself. For me the whole package must be good film designs etc.. in order to collect something from it. But yeah i understand your position.

soo why are you in the thread then??? if the movie disgusts you that much you shouldn't be in there.
~~~i'm on board. and this time next year i'll looking for all the people who didn't order this one....inflated prices and all.

I wonder if this bust will have the same success as the Predator 1 bust. In my opinion I think it might not due to the fact that the movie was a bomb and not a classic. Predator 1 is still a great movie and loved by many so the bust of course is popular among fans. An interesting note to point out though, the Predator 1 bust was in stock at Sideshow for quite some time and it has only recently gone up in value. It's terribly difficult to predict the future value of these things so it's best in my opinion to just buy what you really like.

i think it will.... i'll probably get flamed for it, but i think it blows the original out of the water. there's so much detail in this guy that even if you hated the movie a true Predator fan would love this item for what it represents.
~~again, i'm not trying to hate on the original as i still want one to this day, but for what its selling for i think i'll buy the Wolf instead.

there shall be no flaming from me. I have NO doubt that all the naysayers will be saying kick a** when the in hand pics are up.

I can definitely see it from that perspective as well. Here's to hoping that it will come out very close to the proto. The only thing I would be worried about are the eyes. I wonder how they will do them this time around. I never cared for the way Sideshow did the eyes on the Maul bust...looked a little cheap. I have heard only good things about the eye on the 1:1 Arnold though.

Man... I am rambling like Eli tonight. Don't mind me people, I am just bored.

^^^ lol... its all good. i hope this one is a home run... if not my GF is gonna kill me. i have the pictures saved on my computer and set for my screen saver. every time one pops up she shakes her head.

To ask a question, wich was in my first post. I learned about the collecting values of certain members wich was interesting.

Did you tell her it's coming yet or have you just shown her the pictures and asked her "man, isn't this so cool?" I tend to just do the latter which gets me into trouble when the Fedex man comes.

Today I showed her some pics of the 1:1 Arnie bust and like a nerd I started humming the Terminator theme song. TO play it out I made her sing it too then I broke the news and said I am going to buy this bust... it's on my list. She wasn't thrilled.

There two kinds of predator fans, i'm a fan of the mctiernan movie called predator wich included a masterpiece of a design wich was the predator.


While most here call themselves predator fans because they are mainly fans of just the creature.

apparently 8th wonder is faaar superior....faaar...faaar superior to us lower grade Predator fans.

lol.... i was doing that last week when the Wolf Bio arrived. i actually like AVP:R. its a sci fi action movie that destroys everything breathing thing in the movie.

i guess so... oh well. the CM will arrive and everyone will bow down to its awesomeness.

 

[Helpmepleaseimnuts]

I gotta say im on the wall with this 1 and i dont know witch way i will fall
it looks reallygood but i really dont tlike the stand.

Id have to say i like the P1 bust more but thats extreamly expensive now so thats outta my books.

Hard as ive orderd the ironman bust already. i think if i can raise funds soon then i will get it.

you seemed to be just bashing the movie with your question. and yes i'm a Predator fan because of the creature...the moviePredator 2 isn't a masterpiece, but i will most certainly call this a masterpiece:

yeah the stand is the only thing i don't like about the bust... but i'll find something to work with it.

It's an objective conclusion it is not a judgement. Don't feel attacked whole the time sheesh.

it will never happen... but if it did i'll crap my pants.

its late...people get edgy.

 

[mr.thrifty]

Don't you folks care all that Wolf merchandise comes from such a piece of ^^^^ movie? Even if i liked Wolf as a design, i guess he is ok. I could never buy anything from AVPR.

 

[8th wonder]

Whats that (my opinion about AVPR being crap) got to do with concluding there are two kinds of predator fans?

This was connected to that: It's an objective conclusion it is not a judgement. Don't feel attacked whole the time sheesh.
