This is covered in a wealth of images of the figure and his accessories, once this is slipped off you're onto the oversized flap fronted box. It measures 17.5" x 15.5" x 4.5" and like the rest of the line so far has the pearlescent / metallic slip on sleeve. It dwarves anything I've received in 1/6 scale to date, even the DaJoint ZMDC figures. This box is BIG with a capitol 'B' and its heavy to match. You'll also get to see far better pics of both Predators, Scar and Celtic than I can manage. Here, and new images are promised for Bats and Supes soon. Hot Toys have a lot of product in the line for the next year, Robo-cop, Ed-209 (this one looks particularly sweet), Batman (from Batman Returns), Superman (from Superman Returns), as well as the oft hinted at but so far unseen Terminator endo-skeleton and an AVP Alien. Any way enough back story onto the figure. Firstly thanks to Charles (Charlsay/Kidultgarden on eBay) for sending it out so quick, but also the Hong Kong Post Office and Royal Mail deserve a pat on the back, three days in transit from Hong Kong to the UK seems pretty impressive to me. A courier handed me a HUGE box, I signed, I thought it can't be? I only ordered it on Thursday evening! But sure enough upon feverishly (remember I was ill) ripping (well, actually carefully cutting) open the package, it was my much anticipated 'Scar' Predator. Any way I'd just tucked them up in blankets on the couch with warm milk and the DVD of old classic Betty Boop cartoons (yes they really do like it! I consider it part of their 'classic's' education) When there was a knock at the door. I had taken the day off sick, as not only was I ill but my two daughters were ill as well, so I was going to be feeling rough all day while being the designated carer of a 2 and 5 year old, yipee! it don't get much better than that. I had one of those great experiences on Monday, I know Monday is rarely a day for great experiences and this particular Monday hadn't started well. Jeff Parker is back, this time with a review of the Hot Toys Predator.
