Re: 1/6 Hot Toys MMS221 - Alien vs. Predator: 1/6th scale Celtic Predator Figure

exactly if it had been 235$ i would have got this already, but at 260$ that hurts my finances too much. I have to get 3 IM's, robocop & ed-209. I got some silver gloss paint ready for celtic when the time comes and i can actually get him.

Besides the obvious upgrade in quality, they see what the originals sell for on the secondary market and raise the prices accordingly. No surprise here. Do I wish they were cheaper? Of course.

Got my Celtic today! It is very nice!
But i have give his base to Scar, haha

great idea, i'll do the same )
p.s. if you delete the right hip armor (as it should be. if it wasn't left hip armor) and take off a chest armor piece (as it is in later scenes) the Celtic will stand out more from the Scar.

The first release's price is irrelevant, honestly. To me, it's more that Scar should've been the same amount as City Hunter ($220) and Celtic should've only been $15 more -- in other words, the price Scar actually went for.

Not sure where HT's getting their numbers. Usually in a business like this you'd charge the highest amount you think people would be willing to pay but... I mean come on. At $260 their confidence needs to be checked.

220$ for City Hunter is a crime in broad daylight. He has the worst paint job ever !

his body is painted good enough. worse than Classic body but way better than any other pred excluding Rodrigators.
his head on the other hand... well, all tsang predators have brown mouth area drinking crap.

I don't have a problem with the paintjob, just the unmasked likeness.

Having that said, I thought the $220 price tag was reasonable. $5 cheaper than Classic due to lack of a diorama base and second light-up feature, but he had plenty of accessories. $235 for Scar and $260 for Celtic, now those are crimes.

Currently selling off another one of my customs too to make space on shelf.

As mentioned previously on here, finally completed AVP Barbarian Warrior Predator:

Just got my tracking email... I'll receive Celtic on the 30th!
 
Re: 1/6 Hot Toys MMS221 - Alien vs. Predator: 1/6th scale Celtic Predator Figure

anyone order this guy through alter ego comics? I haven't got any notification yet. I guess they will get their shipment around the 30th and then I'll have an additional 3-5 days wait for it to ship out from them…..:gah:
 
Re: 1/6 Hot Toys MMS221 - Alien vs. Predator: 1/6th scale Celtic Predator Figure

Have had to let go a lot of my previous customs.... Very sad. But every time I purchase a new predator another one has to go due to Mrs Big Boss. :ohbfrank:

But also because of limited space.

There was a time where half of the house was just packed with all my custom work in the way.

Imagine a bunch of 1/6 predators and then tons of custom 1/4 preds all over the place!

Long sold: 1/4 AVP Ancient Scar







And then had to say buy to this too 1/4 Elder P2 too (a few years back before Neca even announced the 1/4 Elder P2):









Even had the 3 tri laser sight on canon.

Hope I haven't annoyed anyone, will post on p2 thread.:wave

I already removed the right hip armor, and did not attach the shoulder cannon.
