Love the intro with King Willy. Nice pick up, I'm on the waitlist. Hopefully, it converts 🤞🏾 Great job with the narrating under difficult circumstances. You're a natural Sir David Attenborough 😂
I contacted Prime1 Studio and they confirmed there should be three pads on the base, one within each corner, and they will be contacting you to resolve your issue. The bust looks amazing and cannot wait to receive mine which is currently en route!!
Hi matey - yes, they’ve been back in touch with me and they’re going to send me out a couple of additional pads. Thank you for chasing this up however and getting in touch, very appreciated 👍🏻
i dont have this bust but ive had some issues with some pieces wobbling with the pads intact. ultimately i think the pads these companies put under statues are fairly cheap and cheesy. i buy packages of adhesive backed felt pads, felt is the key as well, and replace the tiny rubber pads with these much nicer felt pads and now i can so much easier move my statues around on a smooth flat surface. i get the pads at home depot for minimal cost and you can get 3/4 in up to 2 in or maybe larger. i generally go for ones about an inch diameter. they are lovely and the statues sit much nicer with these pads and man, the ease of scooting the piece over a little or turning it to adjust the viewing angle, priceless.
Congrats on the latest addition to your collection Jason. It looks a nice piece, but I’m definitely with you when you say you don’t get much for $800. I really should be looking to pick up the closed mouth Jungle Hunter bust, but I just can’t justify spending over a grand for a 1/3 scale bust. I probably will though at some point, as I love the way it looks on the statue. 🤣🤣
@@hauntofthecollector received yesterday, nice bust after the paint on the front of the head lacks finish I think, but otherwise overall it's fine, but a little breakage for the quills on the top right side (poor packaging).
Odd choice to have his head turned all the way to the side. Suppose it has to do with the orientation of the full statue, but it doesn't help the displayabilty of this piece
Yes mate - excellent point and one I have picked up on since putting it on the shelf!… There’s other issues as well now, which I’ll cover on the upcoming review… 👍🏻
I’m still trying to decide what I think about the paint app mate? I mean I know it’s not a patch on what Narin and the like do, but for what is potentially ‘mass produced’ I feel it’s acceptable?…

Hello great video unboxing rookie move on the microphone Jason 😂😂😂I did the same thing on a livestream
Yeah, it’s never happened before!… ever!!! I literally on just caught it and the light was on saying it was connected!?… so…. No idea?
Had to have all that protective packaging in that box , bloody wants to have price of some of your stuff 💷💷 not crap is it mate💯
No, they’re expensive mate!… plus you need to add shipping (which is extortionate!) and import duties… it’s a very pricey hobby!
Congrats Jason. Thanks for the look.
No problem matey - thank you for the watching & commenting! 👍🏻
Bro that's badass big congrats
Hey thanks my mate 👍🏻

Haha.. thanks mate… was tricky getting the narrative to match up with timing as to what I was doing!!! 😆👍🏻
I wonder will prime one make a similar bust City Hunter but with his mask?
Would look great as an idea 🤔
@@thegoverner100 I assume they won’t as there was one in with the 1:3 statue?…
Damn that’s a big bust. Much bigger than I was expecting. Definitely worth the price. Congrats 🤙🏼
Yeah it’s 1:3 mate… same as the JH bust - I’ll do a comparison vid very soon!…
Cheers matey 👍🏻
I’ve lost audio on 2 reviews. Sucks but this vid is still great 👊🏼
@@GothamCenobites ahh cheers buddy!… yeah, first time it’s happened to me?…

Hey mate - yes, that’s a much better option indeed - P1 did send the replacement pads, but as you say, far better with felt!… 👍🏻
Nice one mate!
Thank you matey…. I’ll answer you message shortly buddy, just got in from gym 👍🏻
I see the review between the two first 😂😂
Looks epic, shame about those pads ,but like you said easy fix , love those Balrog's in the background too ❤
Cheers matey - I’ve got some spare pads, so easy fix to be fair… 👍🏻

Hey cheers matey - I’ll go far more into pricing etc on the next video where I’ll get both busts out together… (that sounds somewhat suggestive??)… 😆
Had this on PO but I pulled out, kind of regret is now I have the Original Predator bust 1/3.
Ah shame mate… it does display really well to be fair, I’ll cover more on the upcoming reverie vid… 👍🏻
I was on the fence with this and was close to pulling the trigger on it. I'm glad I didn't. The Jungle hunter Bust blows this out the water.😢
Indeed!… It’s an odd one for them to do? I’ll cover it more in the review video, but you’re right with your comment matey 👍🏻
Congrats, looks huge! Love the green spotlights on big chap behind you, where'd u get those?
Thank you matey - the spots are off Amazon mate, just type in AA battery LED spots and you’ll find them 👍🏻
It looks pretty good, but i do prefer the JH bust for sure.
Any idea on when the full city hunter statue will be arriving?
I’ve cancelled my CH statue mate as nowhere to display it now… but I believe it’s shipping now?
@@hauntofthecollector ah that's too bad, but totally understand.
I recently got the JH myself so I know how much space they take up.
I'm getting mine tomorrow ... I hope I don't have any breakages or defects ...
Superb mate - hope you’re happy with it - and of course, it arrives sound! 👍🏻
@@hauntofthecollector Thank you. I hope to see the complete statues soon. :)
@@benkonig3440 the full statue from the images I’ve seen so far, looks superb mate 👍🏻

@@benkonig3440 ah mate, sorry to hear about breakage - the portrait is very delicate!!…

Hi mate
Can this head fits on your jungle predator?
I would say no!… as the tentacles are positioned differently as in the head pose… 👍🏻
wow...they flubbed the paint hard, it needs a repaint which is ludicrous at this price.
It’s…. Not great! I am actually enquiring with a mate of mine to do a repaint on this, funnily enough… 👍🏻
All the time they spend trying to nail the sculpt and it always falls apart of the paint app. Real shame.
