The only thing it could be missing is more detail such as pitting in the armor but otherwise it looks pretty accurate to the film used costumes. Looks great to me as is.

Indeed they're overscaled and should be a true 1/3 with a reasonable and visible price tag.

I guess that's the problem, it is too screen accurate to the hideous costumes lol. They only looked good in dim lighting throughout the movie.

Skin looks like it's carved out of wood. That is my only complaint so far.

Surprised none of these have gone up for sale yet. I wonder how Berserker sales are, I love that one and even I'm likely not buying it, as much as I want to. These 1/3's are spectacular statement pieces,m but so much money to actually buy. Not sure I can face another 5k statue.

My best bet is Prime 1 are waiting until they sell a certain amount of the City Hunter and Berserker Predators before the AVP Predators go up for pre-order. I can see them putting up ALL 3 brothers at the same time.

Indeed, think so too.

If they do that, you'd hope they will offer a discount on the bundle, that might be the only chance Chopper has to be produced... I'm still hoping they will make these in 1/4 with snow bases.

Yeah, it's the only thing I can think of holding them back from releasing them.

You know never know with Prime 1. Another way they could counteract Chopper, is by have a small low ES.

I would prefer these in a 1/4 myself (to collect all 3, save on shipping, customs/imports etc) ... But I'm only interested in Scar. So, a 1/3 of him, I'm good with. The only other Predators I'm interested in besides Scar, is Wolf and the Ancient Elder from AVP and I'm done. I already have the City Hunter bust on pre-order and have the Jungle Hunter (limited closed-mouth bust) in doors.
