Only $200 LOL!
Yeah, that would be nice.I hear you on the details, but that's what makes the difference in the end. You think about how many hours you put in and are people really going to notice. Well I can tell that I did and I appreciate all the work put in. I go thru the same phase as well with detailing something like this, I'm always thinking several steps ahead and it seems like you have a long way to go but once it starts to take shape and you finish it, you feel good about that you put in your best effort. At certain times I was like, yeah that's looks good enough, but not good enough for me.
You put out a P2 with the same detail level as this P1 and I'll be customizing him for sure.

WOW! 
It could, I mean look how far $80 went. Other companies (including Hot Toys) would charge around $100-$120 for something like that.

I had to come back and look at your custom again and marvel at it. I look at this and then look over at my CM and think what should have been. The paint work looks great and it really brings out the detail so well. I love the small touches put in on it and the skull looks cool in his hand. I'm hoping the Elder will be next and I look forward to cool custom work on him as well. Right now P2 is my # 1 dream figure to be 19inches and so far most of my dreams have come true at NECA. The day I jumped ship from McFarlane to NECA was the best decision I ever made. What was a Predator nightmare at McFarlane has really turned into more of a dream than I ever expected. Seeing other artist take my sculpt and our figure and turn it into this is just the coolest thing really. P2 has very much the details of our P1 and part of me thinks it might be even better. I'm scared though he will cost more to make than P1 and that might be a hard sell with the boss. I'd tell him just charge 10 to 20 dollars more but he would say P2 is a tougher sell than P1. P1 is by far the most popular Predator even though die hard Predator fans might like P2's design more.
Hopefully the smaller P2 figures will sell so well that a 19 inch P2 would be an easier sell. We'll see what happens and keep those fingers crossed.
Yeah you're right and look what we did for 69.95. I would think 200 would go so very far. More paint detail, lights, better netting and sound heck so much more easily for 200. I'm looking over at a stock P1 right now and it's hard to believe it's only 80 dollars.

I am really loving the paint and texture.
The skin on the torso and the armor / weapons look awesome!

Here are some quick videos I did for the Pred. One thing I noticed is that the video colors are off a bit. Also, I'm lousy for shooting video. Oh well, enjoy!

He did such a great job I can't help but wish we would put out high end stuff that looks a lot like what he did to this figure. Such an outstanding job I'm thinking I wish I owned one just like it.

Awesome, you took a low end figure and made it very high end.
