I suppose this depends on how quickly they get Indy out.

This Predator maquette has looked totally finshed since at least SDCC last year. It doesn't look like it either needs or will get any modifications. So in that way it is ready to go. But Indy has to come first.

cost:

I had an update from one o the AD's over here last week. Bascially they haven't been offered the piece for sale yet, although they undoubtedly will at some point. This tends to suggest that CM have not decided on the prie yet.
Personally I don't care what it costs. If it is somewhere between £1000 and £2000 I will somewhow find the money.

Tril - surely this is just the same principle as the T-X light up feature whereby different bits are illuminated at different times... or do you think the scale is too small to allow for the electronics to be fixed inside?
The TX is slightly different, as it's more like one eliminated unit throughout the internal body.
For the LED's to flash in sequence they would need additional circuitry. It would be possible to execute at this scale, but would no doubt bump the price up.

point taken. Yes I suppose you would need individual LED's for each individual part of the glyph if it were true to the film. So maybe just two will light up...

I'll email CM about it later and see if I get a reply.
