After MANY MANY years I finally got my Sideshow predator 1:1 bust. I picked it up today in person, totally nervous/pumped whatever you wanna call it. lol
When it first came out, a long time ago, i couldn't afford one so i had to let the dream go.
After a year or so I bought one on Ebay. When the deal was done and it was paying time the seller suddenly raised the shipping costs with $150. (BTW I asked for a shipping quote before I started bidding on the bust) At that time, being a total ebay noob i had to let it go again because I had a bad feeling about this seller.
Then about 8 month's ago I responded to a sale at a local trading site. The deal was made, i just needed to pick it up but to my dissapointment it was a cheap recast,( and i do not like the whole recast thing) so
again no predator 1:1 bust.
Untill this day..........
To my surprise a personal friend of mine decided to sell his bust and i jumped straight on it.
Well enough with the talk, sorry about that.... lol. Here is a picture of a piece i consider my holy grail.
