If this has the double points and "$20 shipping" like voltron it could sell quickly. I am waiting to see the price before fulling deciding.

I seem to remember the exclusive selling out and then SS canceled it and refunded the NRD. Then a few months later they put it back up for sell with a high ES for the Ex. I can understand why people were hesitant to order it again.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

It would have been ok had the fixed some of the issues, but it came back only about a month later exactly the same.

OK guys - not good news regarding the thigh armour I'm afraid.

There were a number of concerns raised on the thread for the recently announced Predator 1/4 maquette.
We know the routine by now so can offer educated guesses about what will happen on most of these 
The one that has pretty much everyone worried, and that could be easily fixed before production, is the position of the armour on his right thigh.
It is way too far forward and should be moved backwards to be in a similar position to the one on his left leg.
- Was it accidentally glued on in the wrong position or was it intentionally put where it is?
- If it was intentional - can this please be corrected before production?
Many thanks again - Ian/Spike. |

Honestly I would be shocked if they keep the thigh armor where it currently is. Can't imagine any Predator fan being OK with this and purchasing one anyway.

According to Alex, the price won't be cheap also.
My guess is $2,000 for this, and Sideshow will categorize him in the LSF section.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

People are going to buy it anyway. Whatever potential customers they may lose from this there will be more ready to take their place.
