Predator - Heresy Miniatures
« on: July 13, 2011, 08:05:33 PM »
I know a lot of you like Predators on here, but aren't sure if you've seen the second variant of Heresy's Hurn:



It stands a bit taller than the Copplestone ones (making it ideal IMHO, for the new bigger meaner Preds), and comes with a whole variety of arm options, enabling you to build a squad.

That's the good news.

The bad news, is that I understand that Heresy are really struggling at the moment, so if you want one, I would strongly suggest that you buy it NOW, as it may be OOP very shortly.

Thanks for the link.

Always meant to get me a few of those, looks like waiting is not a good idea.

Which is probably one of the reasons why it costs a whooping £12.
A 3 man squad would set you back €40.  :o
I think I'll stick to my copplestones.

Your choice mate.

People will quite happily fork out that sort of dosh, for a GW hero - in this case, the mini comes with a whole variety of alternatives, and is well worth the money IMHO.  Lets face it, you aren't going to buy an army of them....

Gah! I wish they would have made a couple more poses instead of just putting a mask on the old one.Truly the best pred made in lead.He stands head and shoulders over the Copplestone ones.I have both.

Brilliant mini. Got a couple when they first came out to go with the 3 of the first........to go with all the Copplestone ones..........all sitting in the lead pile  :(

Hope Andy keeps going. He's one of my fave sculptors.

Damn you Akula ! ;)
Just ordered the one (and some shotguns and a sniper rifle.)
If he's that much taller he can act as a hero/elder.  8)
And allthough I posses GW (Space Hulk was my first game and I still think it's an awesome game) I resent the idea of getting f****d by GW nowadays.  >:D

I already own four of the masked and four of the unmasked.  They really are awesome figures.  Well worth the price.

Heresy... the thinking man's GW.  ;)

This and the original are stunning figures, if you don't buy them give it a few years and you'll wish you had while being aghast at how much they're swopping hands for...
