SWS could have put wrinkles on the suit if they wanted it to look like that. I think Prime 1 just like heavy textures, his mask has texture also but should be really smooth which aids its featureless look. I still think this is great, but I wouldn't mind a few tweaks. Not that tweaks ever happen on Predator statues. At least it's fun to talk about for a while.

I'm fine with the textured look of the skin, has more pop, more menacing and detail imo. I wouldn't want it to be smoothed, it'll look cheap for me. It's one area to trade of accuracy from an old suit for aesthetics to create the actual statue replica.
Agree with the portraits, I don't want two open mouth ones, one of the two should be closed. That really needs to change.
Torso is fine for me.

$2800-3000 is my guess. 4 1/3 portraits is at least $200 extra per head. I imagine there will be a DX version as they usually do. I don't think I would need 4 portraits though, especially when 2 are very similar.

Honestly I hope not. Can't justify a 1/3 polystone statue exceeding 3k. I hope it's in the early to mid 2s, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a little higher. As awesome as this is anything with a 3 will turn off many potential buyers.

Blackout is 32" and $2600, with way more parts, but arguably less complex paint. Still, Predator shouldn't be over $3K. And I agree with others, lose the redundant extra head.

i think that's an obscene price you just threw out.
i'm hoping for $2000 - $2500 TOPS. anything over that i'm out.
aside from me spoiling myself these things really have no use in day to day life. You can buy a ton of useful ---- with $2500.

Don't be giving them any crazy ideas on the price now. If the 1/4 scale DX with an elaborate base and tons of switch out parts is $1700, then this 1/3 JH should be $2300 - $2500 tops. Anymore than that is bullshi*...
