Be Among the FIRST to see the Upcoming HALF-SCALE Wolf Predator from Halimaw! Sculptures… bring the drool rag!
October 9th, 2010
It’s thanksgiving weekend here in Canadaland and before I dive in to family, fun and several tables heavily laden down with turkey and his tasty friends I thought I’d continue the fun of Predators in October with your first look at a HUGE half-scale full-body Wolf Predator statue that is in development from a company called Halimaw! Sculptures. The Wolf is my absolutely FAVORITE Predator of all time (even the though movie was perhaps not so great) so you can imagine how excited about this project.
OK OK OK, let me answer as best I can… here’s what I know so far about this piece:
This will be available both as a kit OR as a prepainted statue, and both will be extremely limited. Estimated retail price of the prepainted version will be around $1600 and will feature the following sexy items:
- LED lighted Bio mask
- Detailed mask inside
- Removable bio mask
- Real glass and fine mesh wire for the eyecover
- Dead alien on the base with clear cast
- Glass eyes for the wolf pred
- Real net
- Leather clothes
- Hair would be silicone (still under testing)
At this point I have no details on what the raw castings will include or what the asking price will be.
The kit is 1:2 scale and will measure around 4 feet in height! BOOYA! As of now, the body in finished and has been cast, so now they are working on completing all the armor. In the work-in-progress photos, he looks a bit lean, but this is totally normal without the armor, so no worries there. The photos look AWESOME, tons of great detail and the armor is already looking badass. I do not have a ship date yet BUT I have been promised a unit will be sent for a full review on Predatorstuff.com!
While we wait for more details, check out all the WIP pics I’ve received by clicking on the photo icon below and please be sure to post constructive comments and your thoughts by clicking on the comment button below and I will forward any good ideas to the production company.
More on this piece in the near future, now GO EAT and Happy Turkey Day (Canadian version)!

Yup…gonna need a bigger house.
Wicked. Not going to be able to afford it, but I can still carry my drool rag around as I’m looking at these pics!
Bankrupt city…Here I come. No way I can afford this bad boy. But I gotta’ say: Hot damn! Those guys did one helluva’ job, man. Think I just found my ‘holy grail’ of Predator kits (Along with the Death Warrior and Bad blood kits.). Dan, Do you do this to us on purpose?
Oh geez – the Wife will KILL me
