Just got a big package from teh customz. God I hate dealing with the customs. The box was huge and weighed over 5 kilos. I took a few quick snapshots. When the weather is good and i have time I`ll take some proper pictures.
Inside the box there was a smaller box.
Here is the front side of the box. Looks very cool. Worthy of display on its own.
Inside that big box there were another two small boxes that house the Samurai Predator and the alien base.
To make the base you have to put these parts into he alien's dead body.
The head of the xenomorph. Sweet details.
It looks sick. Some people are obsessed with having a purple head to match the body, but I have to be honest - I bought purple paint and had a plan of painting the head dark purple , but when I saw how the figure looks with this head in person , I have to say that it looks great. The pictures make the head really stand out and be in a different colour than the body , but in person the difference between the body and the head is not that big, so why bother ruining a great paint job and a very good black wash.
And now for the crazy Hot Toys Samurai Predator 1/6 Scale action figure
I just love the whole figure. The feel of the figure - it's superior to any other predator you owe - especially the Tracker , Falconer or Berserker (I own a Tracker and he is placed just next to the Samurai and pales in the level of detail of the armor, the base, the paintjob). The predators from the movie Predators are just plain as hell compared to the Samurai.
Close up of the beautifully painted and sculpted head. The mouth can be opened and close and the open mandibles make this guy loook very mean. He looks pissed.
The beautiful sculpt and the detail of the head.
Another shot. Breath-taking.
