Not yet, still thinking, thought if I can get one about $1800, but still a high price. Will this one going up crazy after people got them? I don't see much good feedback from here but there is still people welling to pay more, even more then $2000 when it come out.... I don't know, such nice statue but got mess up by ss

Definitely 1/3

I'm sorry, but again, this proves nothing.

You've taken two objects that can be scaled larger or smaller by simple paint programs.

It is likely that Wolf is true 1/3 scale, but this method of prooving so is not valid.
 
I'm 100% sure this won't be 1/3 scale and even if it were 1/3 scale this wouldn't be worth 2k,SS is not Cm and at this rate SS will lose most of its clients.

They are not 2 seperate objects scaled seperately. They are one poser figure positioned and scaled to the Wolf figure carefully lining up the main joints such as the hip, knee, ankles, shoulders, wrist and head to capture the exact propotions and size. THEN the figure was zeroed out at the hip (not rescalling it or moving it forwards or backwrds from the viewer). THEN it was moved down to line up with the measurements so we can see just how tall he is standing up.

It proves this is in fact 1/3 wether you believe it or not.

I agree with you Nak... Don't even bother trying to explain yourself... 1/4 or 1/3 either buy it or don't folks.. just stop _____ing....:) Seems the LSF really tweak folks.. I love my IM, Maul on order, Wolverine and this guy...It's f..ing awesome in either scale...:)

But per your example, he looks the same size as the 1/4 scale original Predator Maquette and way smaller than the CM Preddy.

How is this 1/3 scale then? Unless Wolf was much shorter than the original Predator?

Look on Sideshow's site. From the bottom of the base to the top of the head isn't 28", so how the hell are you placing the 28" mark in the middle of the figure's head? According to your nifty little schematic, I'd say it's maybe 24". So, 24" x 3= 72" (6 foot). Not even close there bud, try again.

I am basing my graphic on the fact that this figure is 31 inches from the bottom of the base to the top of the Pred's head (as stated by the description and what Mike from SideShow told me over the phone). I used this image as a reference and marked the measuring points from the middle of the bottom of the base (as it should be and not from the bottom tip as that is a perspective point and not the true middle) to the top of the head (which from this angle is a good 'centre' perspective reference point).

If you are basing your scale on the height graph SideShow posted, it is not realistic because they are including the overall perspective within the chart. If you understood perspective and how that can scew measurements and how you can get around this, you would understand how my graphic actually works. But you don't so believe what you want. For a 7 foot predator this is a 1/3 figure like it or not.

Why, because SS said it was? Let me guess, you POed it and ate trying to justify its preposterous price tag.

Baaaaahhhh-baaaaahhhhhh

I'm not questioning whether the figure is 1/3, I'm pointing out the flaws in your method of proving it.

To get a more solid answer, one would have to measure the distance from the bottom of his sandal to the center of the knee (axis of rotation). Then the distance from there to the center of his hip. Then one more measurement from the hip, following his spine, to the top of his head.

Those figures added together will give us a closer idea how tall this statue would be if it were standing straight. Looking at the statue, I would take all of those measurements along it's right side.

Scaling objects with paint programs to suit your needs is meaningless.
