Bobskink Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) It's been a long while since I made a custom minifig, but when watching Predator last week (again). I decided that the Predator needed a descent minfig version and an update from the lame one I did some time ago. What was I thinking... So I made a new one... Made a new and hopefully better head Anyway, I'm mush happier with the result this time. It's been a while that I made a custom I really want to keep myself, and not give away or sell. Here are some more pictures: And a reference picture. But, as can be seen in Predator 2 and the AVP Movies, at the end, a Predator never seems to be alone... But his companions still need some finishing up. From left to right Scar Predator from AVP. Predtor 2, Predator 1, Elder Predator from Predator 2 & a first tryout And eventualy, the Predator also needs to fight some aliens from time to time... And a box.

The Penguin Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 Ha! Nicely done! I always enjoy seeing new sculptured pieces and details! Especially, if they're so well done. ) I'm not a big fan of those Predator, or, Alien vs Predator movies, but the minifig itself is really a good one, again. ) You might find that video interesting: Batman vs Predator Good day, ladies and gentlemen! ) Quote
Lordofdragonss Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 Your alien is amazing! Ok.. Predator is amazing too! Are ou planing Alien vs Predator diorama? Quote
Big Cam Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 Oh man, that is a great predator helmet. I forgot how old that movie really is. I want to see it again. Great job, that really is spot on, I couldn't see TLG doing much better. Quote
Sir Gecko Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 Amazing molding on the helmet and just downright creepy detail on the torso and limbs. I think you captured this critter perfectly. Keep up the good work! Quote
Zorro Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 The helmet and predator, just like the alien, are all incredible! You managed to improve your first version quite a bit. Very well done indeed and great thanks for sharing this with us. Quote
LuxorV Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 It's very nice to see that you don't stop working on a project once the first version is finished, but keep trying to improve your designs I remember when you posted the first Predator, and it was just amazing at the time; now you made an even more realistic version, and not just one, but one for (almost) every Predator know through the movies Of course, my favorite is the Wolf Predtaor from AVP: Requiem, both for the name (based on the character of Winston Wolf from Pulp Fiction) and the attitude/combat style: do you plan on making him, too?

CommanderFox Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 Amazing! Just Amazing Bobskink! I can't decide which one is better, the alien or the predator... Both are pure beauties! Really nice job with these customs! CommanderFox Quote
prateek Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 Bob strikes again! I can't believe your awesome skills! That Alien is perfect; nice use of the skeleton body Quote
Bobskink Posted February 3, 2010 Author Posted February 3, 2010 Thanks for the comments. I was amazed myself how well the alien turned out, since I made it real quick, but I wanted to keep the focus on the Predator, since that is my favorite character. Here's a pic of the alien body construction. I'm makng several more at this time, you always need more badies, to make the goodies look better. @ LuxorV, I did a Predator, resembling the one from AVP 2 (no pic, sorry) but will eventually do a new one. Now I would like to improve my Predator 2 first and make a Dutsh Shaefer (Arnie in Predator 1) Quote

Bobskink Posted April 22, 2010 Author Posted April 22, 2010 Updated my Predator with a new head Quote
Big Cam Posted April 22, 2010 Posted April 22, 2010 I like it, it's not quite as slanted as the first. Honestly, I though tthe first one was great, this is just like a refinment of a good job. Quote
Abaddon127 Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 Bobskink good sir, My heartiest compliments to you regarding your Alien and Predator figures. They are top-notch work, and beautiful to look at. I'd love to see your take on a Colonial Marine to complete the trifecta of carnage. On a side note, if you were to construct a mold of your Alien head, body and tail apparatus, I would be interested in purchasing a couple dozen, and I am sure others would be as well. Quote
LuxorV Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 * img * Made a box. Great job again on these, Bobskink. The box is superb as the nice impulse-size accessories really add to the theme Now, if only I could get my hands on one of these... Quote
Tanotrooper Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 Very nice work on the figures, you certainly have some sculpting skills! Did you paint the details on the minifigure or did you use decals? The box is awesome BTW Gaetano Quote
Darth Yogi Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 wow that box looks great and is just like a lego box and the guy is awesome amazing job Quote
The Crazy One Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 (edited) Yes, I love Predators! Can't wait for the new film! Anyway, amazing custom. I wish I was good enough to do stuff like this, but for now, I'm a pureist. Edited July 31, 2010 by The crazy one Quote
Yanu360 Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Can i buy it If somebody have it i want to buy it? I'am searching a few years to buy it so please i want them Quote
LuxorV Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Please do not revive a 5 years old topic to ask for someone to sell you their creations, customs or otherwise. There are lots of custom sellers and on-line shop sites you can go to and search for custom figs. EB is not one of them. Thanks. Quote
LuxorV Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Try searching for 'custom predator LEGO figures" on Google, Ebay or any suchlike. Or, visit the Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds section of our forums to see if any member has a topic selling them. The MCW section is for showcasing and discussion only. Quote
