Who knows what they paid to get access to a hero mold. I'd bet a lot. This is going to be even more desirable if that's the case. The value on the P1 bust might rise because of this too.

I think he means the Wolf bust. I seem to recall it was 900$, not sure about it being bigger, it was just the head of the Wolf + the pillar/base (that doesn't count as part of the bust for me, regarding size).
EDIT: awww ****, mistake. Well, all comes down to paint app to me. A City Hunter bust with proper accuracy and paint app would put to shame any Berserker, Wolf and even the original P1 bust. Yeah, I said it.
I thought we were all talking about different things. Anyways......The Wolf bust is ok, but I still think the Berserker bust is bad. It's defn the worst of the bunch for sure, along with the Predalien.

Along with the Predalien...
Jeeeeez... That comment is a bit hard man... The Predalien is a jaw dropper!!!! Out of everything I've got the Predalien is looked at the most by friends and family.

sorry, but that's my opinion man. I had it. The paint sucked, the dreads were a pain in the butt, no chrome teeth, and a dusty dome. It's defn a looker........from a few feet away. It could've been so much better. I still like the character, but with the amount of room that thing takes up, had to let it go.

Never seen the preadlien in rl and pictures I see of it are always with flash so it's tough to tell ;p But I didn't like the character much at all, beyond just having a predalien in the first place it was too much predator and not enough alien imo.

This is from the original Hero mold....
From their FB page...
"We were very excited to announce, and to show the public for the first time our upcoming newest prop, the model of "PREDATOR 2/ PREDATOR LIFE-SIZE BUST"
It is made from the original mold that was used in the movie!
There are two kinds of heads and suits that were used in the movie "PREDATOR 2"
One was used for the lost hunter, which we see in the stunt scenes and in the end.
The other large one was exclusively made for the tall suit actor, Kevin Peter Hall.
This large "Hero Version" was also used for close up scenes and for advertising, and we are very happy and excited we were able to display this prop!
We hope everyone looks forward to it coming out in the future!"

100% agree with it being a distant memory for me until they put it up for pre order again. I wanted the maquette bad.

'Painted by July' 
Spoke with my local retailer and he was unaware of this.
Like everyone here he said it looks expensive

I guess their tease wasn't for a bio. Very little info as usual given their lack of English information but it appears they are making this... "He plunged into panic LA revives! PREDATOR2/PREDATOR LIFE-SIZE BUST prototype on display! It is used in film photography had become a phantom original mold!"
Things were getting quiet round here so I went thread-trawling.
First thing that caught my eye – THIS thread. I just about fell off my chair when I saw the pics
Nice one Matt – REALLY nice my friend!
So IS this licenced?
Website? (AKA “how the heck do we order”)?
Geez I’m SO giddy about this – HUGE bonus that it’s NOT Sideshow!
I don’t care WHAT this costs – if they can get this right – IT WILL BE MINE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ian/Spike.
WHAAAAAAAAA ?!?!?! seriously?
- (movie-still from Blu-Ray please?)Hmmmm . . . can’t help thinking that forehead doesn’t seem steep/long enough. I think we need one of Matt or Col’s “side by side with a movie still” comparissons.

Thanks - hope there is another choice - I'd pay extra to avoid letting Sideshow get my money.
