This has greatly pained me, but I have also had to pass and I have been looking forward to this for a very long time. I just feel it is a very underwhelming piece unfortunately.

I highly doubt the artists responsable for this have to go through Q.C

*Ahem*.....

I have no idea who actually issues licenses however really. But this is funny.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Well, to adapt from the Sideshow P1 project team's response . . .

"The incorrect Predator is in the intended spot on the Blu-Ray, to look best with the cut and sew elements/stance of the cover, and will not be changing."

That's a huge screw up, it's like putting Stallone on the Terminator cover. All they had to do was find a decent picture, and his gauntlet blades are backwards.

Just ordered mine.
I'm not a Predator purist, just a fan of the character who thinks this is an awesome looking Predator statue and will go great with the P2 which I have and love.
My only concern is that with all the negativity I'm reading about this piece, I'm worried there won't be enough orders and it could get cancelled. Hope that's not the case though.

Congrats!

. . . and don't worry - no way this will be cancelled - there will be enough interest to make sure this goes through.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Preach it, brother.

I really think Pablo vigianno knocked this out of the park, for me it's the paint apps that will matter most in the end on this.
