The SS Mr. Black Maquette beats HT's Mr. Black so far imo.
Sure, bad jaw bone.. but the pose and paint looks much more accurate.
I can't stand the scraped scales on HT's Mr. Black.. I'm shocked that people don't get that upset over it.
And I'd actually prefer SS's horribly painted maskless head, over HT's horribly sculpted maskless head.
Dunno about the Falconer maquette because I do not believe I have seen any in-hand pics of it yet.
But the HT Tracker is obviously much better than SS's..
If SS cared about the collectors and decided to paint with professional quality instead of 2 year old quality, then I would have no idea what Hot Toys is.

$225, based on what we saw at SDCC.
Well for me its because the paint is still far better than the NECA paintjobs.
That and the fact that everyone seems to have them. I've yet to see a Hot Toys Berserker figure without scraped scales...
...having that said, he's my least-favorite 'Predators' figure. Actually, he's my least-favorite HT Predator in the collection after Lost (but they're both staying for completion purposes).

I know its a flaw but it blends into the overall paintscheme IMO so I can easily tolerate it.
I don't have my Tracker yet, I have it on hold at Toys2 for the moment, but he'll probably be my favourite when I get him. Then to be surpassed by the Classic no doubt.

I know that some have mentioned that priority pre-orders for the Shadow predator will be available this Friday at 12:00pm. But I went on the SS website and found no mention of this, nor in their newsletter. I've checked the Aug 4th newsletter on their site and there is no mention of this. Can anyone confirm?

One per account. You'll see exactly what I mean by that on Friday.

But just remember though, "everyone who didn't get one had the same opportunity as everyone else to get this".
