Prime 1 Predator (Ahab)

[Cromulon]

Oh my. Prime 1 are knocking these out of the park. Simply amazing. The base is different and awesome! That color purple for the blood reminds me of Halo for some reason lol

I expected a desert theme base (tatooine, arrakis) type.
I never read the comic he was in though, so i dont know jack

You should definitely check it out. It’s an Aliens, Prometheus, and Predator crossover story that spans over two arcs: Fire and Stone, & Life and Death. Ahab is a beast in it.

After looking at the base for awhile, I still think it’s meh, but at least it’s a creature he killed. Just happy Prime 1 made my favorite predator. Can’t wait to see the masked portrait. Ahab + Cracked Tusk is all I’ll need for my predator collection... unless they plan to make Dachande and Machiko down the line...oh man that would be sick!

Awesome, I'll have to check that one out! We definitely need Machiko, since it has been many years since the last statue.

any ideas on when this one is going up for PO?

Just watched this old joetube vid (WinterWonderfest 2020) with Prime1 AHAB Predator.

I like this one / body design and paintwork has good potential. The gooey i can live with, prefer more realistic multicolor bloody mess, but the large bug is nice.

Spear with boring blade design is not my taste. The Sengoku spear would look a lot better.

Pity the AHAB is not a Preorder yet (end of productionline will take way to long), Elder vibe and imo just as good as the pred2 wall art.
If same price as the Sengoku one, I would really consider PO.

Predator looks amazing. One of the best Predators I’ve seen. Handsome elder head sculpt. Cool pose.

The base...it’s horrendous. One of the worst bases I’ve ever seen.

If I got this I would have to make a custom jungle base. It’s THAT bad.

I think it’s possibly the worst base supporting one of the best statues I’ve seen.

The sculpt of Ahab however seems a bit rough. His armor also appears to be too bulky.

I don’t know Xeno, I think it’s possibly the least attractive base I’ve seen in my entire statue collecting life.

Now if they would substitute that 100 legged creeper with say a T-Rex head base...now we’re talking.

I don't mind the base on this, it's certainly different. Although they very much missed a trick by not going with an engineer theme for this guy.
