Video of Neny Dee's custom work on this piece.. He thinks its nice out of the box but he made some great improvements with the mandibles that I mentioned before.
He did a great job on the mandibles indeed, thanks for sharing the video.

How can he be contacted? I would like to get more info about the custom spine work that his friend is doing.

(which is not that bad) Let's see, Sideshow Marvel Galactus Maquette Hugh paint problems goes for over $2,000.00.. PredAlien itself isn't great (eg dreadlocks look silly and the colour is hideous), but overall this is a very dynamic piece goes for well over the retail price and also has leaning issues..list goes on and on..Also the only 1/4 scale polystone predator you can get cheaper is the p2 but even that is hovering around retail even though most collectors bought it with the 20% mark down.Really don't care about it going for higher price either, I'm just saying if you want the Ex get it now before it might go up after its sold out..The reg version will be for sale along time.........................................
Sorry to tell you, but once the other 3 companies that have a Predator license start releasing their products, nothing from SS is going to go up in price, or even maintain its price. You mentioned the City Hunter maquette hovering around retail. If you are talking about eBay prices, are you referring to list prices, or sold prices? The list price is most definitely not an accurate indicator. I saw a City Hunter that had been custom painted, and it didn't sell at $100 above retail. Once the other companies get going, I predict that SS will become known as the company that you buy a Predator from if the others aren't available. If SS pulls their head out of their ass, and rise to the challenge, that could change. But as is, they are probably going to be the bottom of the barrel.

Appreciate it. I do my best. I wish they would give me a reason to be one of their cheerleaders, but good enough seems to be all they shoot for.

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

I took the pictures at night time (the only time I have without my children nagging and complaining), so there's no natural sunlight. It might look a little bit yellowish due to the lights but I did try to correct that using Lightroom . . . Hope that helps

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

OOPS! We found a few hundred more in our warehouse. We received them 2 weeks ago, so it's totally reasonable that we lost track of them. Our Art Director is also our Inventory Specialist, so you understand.
Well i guess you guys were wrong, EX Sold out!

They probably just stopped short of making the whole run.
