The human skull (imagine with lower jaw attached) is as big or bigger as Prime1 1/3 Alien heads (Big Chap).

This none scale Warrior looks to pair best with the bulky 1/4 Predator line.

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

Pairs perfectly with Big Chap. Very excited to see the two next to each other. Good thing I plan to put Predator in a completely different area pretty much alone by itself. It's absolutely massive, but that's fine with me.

More than $900 I don't know what Prime is doing / container rates are back at pre-covid. Weight is standard 25kg and this is two boxes not three.

I think the double / triple box and bonkers over size base trend is adding unnecessary cost to the statues and the shipping. Plus there's storage and trying to display the damn thing.

Ouch. It really sucks that instead of looking forward to when my items are going to ship I get nervous instead. Paying the cost of a full 1/4 scale statue in shipping is a hard pill to swallow.

I completely agree. Collectors forever have been asking to have the piece itself be the main focal point, not a 50 pound block of resin underneath, and for the same reasons you mentioned: shipping costs and display space. A neat, well thought-out base is all you need. Some of these statues now, the base is the star of the show and oh yeah, there's a statue on top of it.

Seeing this hopefully the re issued big Chap is in one box. That'd be a dream wouldn't it?
