[carbo-fation]

To show how BIG this piece really is, I took a picture with the 12" Jason.

How tall is this again? Bigger than the SS Juggernaut?

Awesome pics, Jeff!

Glad he arrived in satisfactory shape.

Just a bit off topic,,, but I just watched the original Predator trailer.. It is HORRIBLE... But worth watching. I gotta keep in mind that it's almost 20 years old now.

I really wish I wasn't living at my parents and had more money! I would have loved this!

Also, Gruson has one of the best display rooms I've seen! It's how I'd want mine when I move out!

I'm still trying to figure out why the Pred 1:1 bust isn't anywhere close as popular as the Maquette. It's been out for well over a year,,, still not sold out,,, and selling for 30% less than retail most places. My Pred 1:1 bust is still my favorite SS product,,,, that is,,,, until I get a Maquette Exclusive.

To late now, he just changed it to $1695.........

I guess it could be worse.. There's a guy selling one for $3800 on ebay now too... There must be some good drugs in Ireland.

Agreed! One of my favorite pieces SS has done. Very under-rated.

id loved to have picked a 1:1 bust but with postage and taxes the price is just scary.

I got the Predator last week, but went right out of town on vacation. I checked it out when I got home, and it is amazing. I got a cool number too - 150/300. What numbers did everyone get?

I'm guessing the pred bust isnt as popular because it is so damn huge. My tv is smaller!! (yes, I have a small tv....)

The pred maquette is amazing though....hot damn!!!

I'd love to see a picture of the Maquette next to the 1:1 bust...
I'm in a real conundrum here... To be safe,,, I purchased a "standard" Predator from DarkShadow for $850 shipped. I still have every intent to buy an Exclusive and there's one that just popped up on ebay for a starting bid of $1250 plus $50 shipping. I'd basically be paying a minimum of $450 just for the mask... ARGH!!! Decisions, Decisions. I can afford it, but it's just a little tough for me to shovel out nearly $500 for a mask. Heck, I could get a 1:1 custom mask for a lot cheaper than that. The financially responsible person inside me is screaming right now...

That's awesome. Thanks for that pic, Gruson.
GOD,,, the mask makes the piece. Is 9:45 in the morning too early to start drinking? I need the irresponsible person in me to take over this financially responsible person.

 

[occulum]

hey thats a really cool combo. definitely eliminates the indecision as to which head to put on the Predator when you have the fullsize umasked bust beside it.
nice

It will be interesting to follow this auction. Think it will get over $1,500?

@ Gruson: Your buddy has a nice collection!! The unmasked bust looks awesome.
