Why not do a decent Wolf or Berserker Statue? Assuming this is a statue?!...

Anyway I personally have no interest in adding a Sideshow inspired character to my collection.
My collection is 98% movie based.
Honestly I actually wouldn't know but it still looks like a predator then it must be a predator.

We certainly don't need any more statues or busts of Darth Vader, Boba Fett, Jungle Predator, Iron Man, Batman, the Hulk or Wolverine. It's time to come up with some new ideas. Movie Predator didn't come from ripping off ideas, he was a completely new and original idea, and it paid off.

I like how you think sith_apprentice. Creativity....definitely that. If it was up to some...we'd still be riding in chariots from Roman times.

If we're really digging into the history of AvP, they need to make a statue of the Broken Tusk from the original comic. They made a Noguchi, so it's not beyond the realm of possibility. I think NECA has finally decided to make one. Always loved the color scheme, armor and severed Xeno skull on the chestplates, not to mention the spears and grenade launchers.

I can totally see sideshow making a 1/5 Dachande which would make a wonderful a companion piece to the Machiko PF

On a side note, it's looking more and more like a Machiko NECA figure is coming soon, due to a Twitter post of her rifle a few days ago.

This weeks Sideshow live has an interview with Farzad Varahramyan (AVP:R designer) that may all be what this image was for so I probably jumped the gun

Who knows though, he may be there to reveal something new, I bet the Wolf LSB will be on show if nothing else...
