Does that collector offer any thoughts on the comparisons between those?



I just looked up the original post, not much in the way of comparisons, he seems to like both which is understandable. Just said "Nice work Prime 1" regarding this one. I'd have both happily if money were no question, I just prefer the Prime 1 version over all.
 
Honestly if they were both priced the same, I'd still pick the P1. I just don't care for the ADI pose, especially in direct comparison to the P1.
 
Sheet. I really don't need one but this thing is looking very good. Must resist.

Someone could easily scratch build a smaller base around the size of the grate it is standing on to save space.

So the ADI might be nicer in accuracy and paint, but not worth anywhere near it's price over the P1. I would expect the guy to be gushing all over the ADI if it was in fact worth the money.

Yeah, I think it just comes down to personal taste. He didn't say much, but seemed to pair them up fairly evenly. Sisko made a comment about having seen both and preferring the Prime 1 version in person. But this probably isn't surprising as both are obviously beautiful statues. us nerds all realise that the ADI is the best option if you want absolute accuracy and none of us have ever questioned that. But the Prime 1 version isn't exactly inaccurate, it's a high percentage of the way there. But it also benefits from Prime 1's knowledge of producing collectibles rather then props which is why the whole package (base, pose and all) probably looks more appealing to so many people. It costing less than a third the price of the ADI version is the icing on the cake I guess. I'm with Burtial, I really like the ADI version, but even if I had a spare $6k (well closer to $8k for me all in) laying around, I'd still buy the Prime 1 version and put the huge savings to better use. And I'm a full on Alien nerd! But the ADI version obviously has it's target audience elsewhere and I'm happy for that as it means we get to see ADI making cool stuff. My crystal ball shows an Incoming $8k+ Wold Predator if the Dog makes them money....
 
I'm tired of getting screwed over by Sadshow. There is zero reason we should have to wait a potential 5 more months when it's already in collectors hands.
 
We wanted to let you know that the shipment of your Dog Alien Deluxe Maquette item will be delayed. Based on the latest production information, we now expect your item to arrive into our warehouse in Sep - Nov 2019.

Sigh...
 
ordered in a second after it came on PO (almost 2 years ago) as i thought it would be long sold out...now again the wait..

I've told you before - there is NO place in an online forum for fair, accurate, polite, well-thought-out comments . . .

. . . be off with you Sir!​

Also, personally, I'd never be interested in a Wold Predator - I'd buy a Junglw Huntee, Citt Huntee or maybe ever a Scae though.

I just talked to Sadshow and they are 1000% putting this on CoolProps.

Yeah - have to say - much as I have despised Sadshow's tendency to bend the truth in the past, I totally believe them on this.

I'm sure it's Prime1 & CoolProps making sure that these only go out in perfect condition.

If I was buying, I'd be happy with the wait to increase chances of a quality delivery.

Alien fans got screwed.

Transformers and Robotech not so much.

Barricade
Ultra Magnus
Robotech Valkyrie

Are all showing due early for this month.

A FB buddy of mine confirmed it through Sideshow, those pieces are coming.

Can't really say I'm happy. I mean, it's already in collectors hands overseas so they are complete and finished. Yeah we have to wait 5 more months, baring and further delay notices? Nope. Pretty frustrated on this one. Personally I'm not buying SS putting this on CP. I think this has to do with SS and P1 falling out.

I saw a pic of them putting both Transformers Barricade and the Dog together in the same warehouse. You can see the dog Alien in the very back of the pic I posted.

Dog is already out in Japan. Barricade looked complete but wasn’t released yet, not till this month. Seems like Prime1 just picks and chooses which ones to release both in Japan and US even if it’s all ready to go.

In the case of the dog, SS may want to wait till they have more preorders, but then they risk the chance of people bailing and buying something else that’s currently available. But is it even up to them? Idk.
