Check this out. It would really look good next to Fox's Alien head.

Holy carp!

This might be something for me to keep an eye on for my wife. She thinks predators are sexy, but probably won't like it as much if you can't take the faceplate off.

Damn, Fox gives us the ape head in region 1, but not this.

Well, it's still a year away. Maybe if we start writing our letters now....

It would be really sweet if you could take off the mask to reveal the Big-Ugly.

And the Ape Head

It's ok. Given it's literally cut off at the arms, and it's an "AVP" era Predator, it kind of loses its luster.

If you want the ultimate Predator bust, Sideshow Collectibles makes a 1:1 scale bust.

eh, What makes the ape head really sweet is the hair and the eyes. The predator head has none of that magic. Now if they had done the dreads as free flowing or something like that then it would have been great. The ultimate predator bust Richard posted would have been sweet too.

Interesting that sideshow is making the bust referenced in the OP.

Holy crap! That other Predator bust is phenomenal!!! Looks like I'm ordering something from Sideshow.

That is the shit, can't wait to get one

For anyone interested you can go ahead and preorder through Amazon. My total with standard air mail shipping was £86.05, with current exchange rates that's only $162.xx.

Only?? hehe.

I'm gonna pass since I already have the latest of the R1 releases for these movies.

Why?

R2 stuff belongs in the International Forum...

thx

no bust of Arnie = no sale!

It contains all six incredible discs. That line makes me laugh. I like the series (and Aliens too) but this isn't worth the 160+ bucks.

This one is made by Sideshow too. The prototype was shown to buyers at Fox's Q4 a couple of weeks ago. Our buyers said it was very, very impressive and worlds apart in every way from the Alien Head.

Here's my original post from the time with a bit more info:

Hi guys,

Fox were doing their Q4 last week and coming in the New Year will be Predator, Predator 2 and AVP (in an all new "savage" cut). The set is 6 discs housed in a secret compartment within a huge Predator Warrior bust made from "high grade vinyl and abs" and made by Sideshow. This release will be worldwide (possibly staggered with Japan getting it first) and includes a numbered certificate of authenticity. No details on price and pics are only in hard copy format at the moment.. Rest assured when available electronically it'll be upped here. Dare I say it looks 10x better than the alien head.
