Re: Predator 2 City Hunter 1:4 Maquette
While another P1 is always welcome, we have had plenty of him, P2 on the other hand has been lacking a bit, we have been crying out for a decent P2 statue for years now so another P1 wouldn't have been any more welcome than this to most... maybe next year
Well I guess we are the two critics of the thread, nice to meet you lol. I have made most of those points myself throughout the pages although it has to be said I am very happy to finally see the P2 get some attention. I don't mind having an undynamic pose, for me such a statue should be about the beauty of the character. I prefer the P2's relaxed look to the P1's almost falling over dynamic look personally.
The base is really bad, there is no getting around that. If they had just made it a simple rock then it would be fine... but no, they have tacked two cheap looking skulls onto either side that really take away from the piece rather than add anything and then they added teeth to the rock... it clearly isn't a skull in any other way so why???
The spear is undersized, the dreads stick out like wings and the mask is elongated so I am with you, we have waited longer than I care to remember for this so ultimately it was always going to be slightly underwhelming if SS didn't get it spot on (and they really haven't) But I do still kind of like it overall.
I think ultimately it will come down to two things. 1: Will they rip us off, and 2: Can the paint shops come anywhere close to mimicking that amazing paint job. I fear for both of those answers but if SS surprise us and I really hope they do... I will happily open my wallet for this.

Spine missing, wrong base, undersized spear in the wrong hand, undynamic pose that doesn't convey a scene from the film or complement what the 2 other PF's that came before it did - what's not to love
I know I'm being harsh but I've been waiting for this since 06 and I think it's not the home run it should of been.
