The Halcyon and Tsukuda Predator 2 1/9 Scale Model Kit
October 28th, 2005
This post features the classic Halcyon P2 Predator, that some may know as the Tsukuda kit. Halcyon is the first company to create and produce this kit, later selling the mold to Tsukuda and they re-released the kit under their brand in a different box. Whether you bought it under Halcyon or Tsukuda, the kit is the same plastic styrene model in the 1/9 scale and it is the only kit either of these companies made under the Predator theme. It’s interesting how the scale varies from company to company, but they’re always around the same size once you build them. Anyhow, this is a very unique looking Predator sculpt but I personally don’t like it at all… the face sculpt is just horrible and this is one kit I will probably never own, or at least not have it on display unless perhaps God himself painted it for me.
The following photos are non MTC photos and were simply collected over time from various sources on the net. I have found photos of the kit in various paint applications and both company package offerings:
