Some Copplestone 'not' Predators that I got (painted!) from Ebay years ago.

Very nice!!

Those copplestone minis are certainly the best 'non-predator' predators out there!

The scenery elements make them look right at home.

Oh sure. Everybody's in favor of saving Hitler's brain, but when you put it in the body of a Great White Shark, ooh, suddenly you've gone too far

Nice - I picked up a pack of these Copplestone not-Preds a while back, mostly on the basis that you can do Preds VS anyone and have it "work".

It's been about 15 years since I saw Predator... seeing the movie again for painting reference is on my to-do list - and so is bookmarking your images!

I
thought so too...until I got hold of this:



Totally out of production from Doppleganger USA ...moulds have cracked, last ones were sold a few months back through evilbay.

Love it, the pics don't do the resin justice. I have the Copplestone ones, but they are a little too rounded in the details when compared to this chap.

Gonna look forward to painting him as my fav 'not predator'...... until Andy at Heresy finishes Hurn.....



Form an orderly queue behind me please!

Can't wait  ;)

I do have the Doppleganger one!  He's very cool, if not a smidge small....but those Heresy ones make me drool!   :love:  :love:

Gotta have!

Bigger and sharper than the copplestone ones...but Hurn is something else.
Especially if I can convince Andy to do a clear resin one too!

yum!

Gee, Andy, that guy would look great hunting and killing the Heresy sci-fi models I just bought from you! Especially that Ruddock fellow. Now that would be a crossover for the ages, Riddick vs. Predator!

I think I'll have to game that!

I didn't realize the Copplestone ones were so small...i was just commenting from the pics I saw!!

Speaking of clear resin ones, I do have the INAPs from Old Crow/Ainsty....Very cool little dudes!
