I still love these busts. They're a great size and super heavy.
Can't wait to add the Alien busts to the fray.

It's getting very expensive. I just said I won't be ordering any from Sideshow until they fix things up. Might be a good thing

Will they make the berserker Elder Predator bust in the near future I wonder?

As mentioned in the other thread, the sculpt looks very similar to P1 LSB with some modifications!!!

Really? Doesn't look like it. Any comparison pics?

After the paint mess that factory caused for the P2 crown, I have very little faith in the Predator products from Sideshow already. The P2 PF will be the acid test. Until that one proves otherwise, I will not order another Predator piece.

The reason it may look similar is because I'm sure the real Elder in the movie uses the P1 face mask as a base so there will always be a resemblance. Whether SS used any aspect of the P1 LSB as a starting point in some areas or not I have no idea going on a small preview picture, but if you really look at them, they are very different so I doubt it. A lot of work has gone into the details of this one and I'd say it is just a similar look given the natural resemblance. I'll make a side by side shortly...

Also, The P1 had a very acceptable paint job imo, much better than the P2, Fingers crossed for this one as it is certainly a very detailed job.

Here you go Hemooo, best I can do for now. They are similar in some ways for the reason I mentioned above. But they are still ver different when you start to look at them properly. Hope it helps.

cool, I'll wait for the full reveal. I love this line, P1 is great P2 could have been better & they compliment each other very well.
I passed on the masked bust because I dont want repeated characters, but will be getting the elder for sure.
