 Hi All I have been looking for a good size Predator model in resin for a good while yes there are large vinyls out there but iv never been a fan of vinyl figures. When I got the Laurence of Arabia bust there was a link to his online shop and on the site was a 'Big Figures' section where I found the beast I was looking for. Its 1/6th scale so 35cm tall including the stand. Two boxes arrived today which contained the 12 parts for the figure all so well wrapped in bubble wrap it was impossible to tell what was inside each package until unwrapped. All the parts are well cast with high detail and little in the way of mould seams and casting blocks. The main pieces have male to female block fittings to aid assembly. The stand is a major casting with weight and looks perfect for him to stand on. Im more than impressed with him and it was at a very reasonable price in my eyes at £55 + postage. Andy   arpurchase attached the following image(s): Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .

Where did you get this Andy? The Narin sculpts are usually way more expensive over here.

Oh wow, that is a stunning looking predator model. £55 seams like a bargain when you see the price that some resin models go for. This will be a fun build to follow
