Holy Jesus (Models)

[AdamBombOi]

I just got a package in the mail today with two models in it, already painted.

Now, I bought these on ebay for a steal at $17 shipped, but they're flat out terrible. The Alien is painted GOD AWFUL and the Predator is BLEH! I got them with the intent of getting them repainted by the people who did my Billiken AVP set... I just thought I'd share these pictures, and get your thoughts.

Now, the only thing that has changed, is that I really don't want the Alien anymore, after seeing it in person --- it just totally bummed me out, I don't want to look at it anymore. If someone wants to pay shipping on it, I'll gladly send it to you for your to repaint and keep yourself. If not, I'll go through with a repaint and try to stomach looking at it.

First up is the Halcyon Predator 2 Model... yeah (four Dreads broke off at the base of the head in shipping, very quick fix).

Now... it's the real tragedy, the Alien (the tail is included, just unattached for now).

Dam,n, they look like ^^^^.

I may be interested in your alien though.

 

[SpawnFan]

Well the colours on the Alien are all wrong off course but once you clean it up it might look good, like a retro version.

[laudel7]

I want it, really bad....Looks like a fun model to build.

 

[Wor-Gar]

If Schumacher did "ALIEN"...

 

[Praetorian380]

The Alien looks like he has mickey mouse gloves on, hahahahaha

 

[Devil_666]

The Alien looks like those human anatomy figures in Doctor's offices. lol. These remind me of a guy on thehunter'slair who got a Predator (McFarlane) from Mexico. Here's the pics:

lmao. LUCHADOR!!! Was the seller from another country? That would explain the fruity paint job. I guess that sells in other countries as you can see from the pic of the Pred from across the border.

 

[The Ween]

The Alien is so different it's almost cool, but the hands are what bothers me! Those have to be off something else!

 

[Cryoguns]

So THAT'S what an Alien looks like after a bad acid trip

Wow...

Nothing else to say...still trying to comprehend what could have possessed someone to choose that color scheme

Weed my friend, only weed could cause someone to do that.

DUDE! That Predator and my Alien could star in a 50's themed movie...

AVP: IN TECHNICOLOR!

...and uhhh, the dude who painted them lives in America, I swear, I needed a drink after seeing them.

Edit: I did get a decently painted Alien today too (separate buy entirely), he's brown.... but WAY easier to look at. If anyone wants to see a pic, I'll upload one.

 

[abake]

Dude, that is simply bizarre...
The alien is a nice model though, once painted correctly.
I had some reference pics of the same one painted very nicely, I'll try to look them up.
The dome is missing though.
The proportions are more like those of the stuntman in the suit (he was under 6', so he looked a bit chubby in the suit).

 

[Devil_666]

Yeah upload them. Trust, ANYTHING will look better than the original art deco xenomorph. lol..

 

[AdamBombOi]

Well, someone has offered to take the Alien off of my hands.

Thank God.

Edit: Art deco Xeno, hahaha.
