I'm still miffed that they softened the torso without softening the legs (they were never, ever that wrinkly on the suit), but if that's the worst anyone can say about this piece, we're in good shape.

that is the thing that I pushed to the last to have it changed .... but there was nothing to be done. And I don't know why, since they have retouched everything a bit.
It would have been the final touch

Hope it is not during real winter time, but I can't wait till it's unpacking day.

I love it. Makes him look more monstrous. It may be accidental, but it's also natural enough that it adds to his character.

I'm never going to sell mine. It stays forever and when it's time to go, either it gets buried with me or I give it to a true hardcore fan of the next generation for free. Someone's gotta keep talking about predator in 100 years time and this awesome statue tells many stories within the movie.

Yeah there's a reason they made 1800 of these in total. They will sell, and if not now due to the economy, they'll all be gone except for the regulars in a little over a years time.

I'm gonna miss out on some Transformers pieces and thats gonna suck cause I'm ultimately Transformers fan and but this is technically in the Aliens and Robots category. So thats my rational.

But I cant miss out on this guy. Prime 1 is offering too much with this statue and even is making the Cinemaquette look dated a bit laughable at this point.

From memory on this thread, around 30 PO. That figure was towards end of last year, could be different now.
