A little something I whipped up from the extra Hot Toys Predators I picked up & some Clones. If the Yautja are drawn to conflict, the Clone Wars are something I figured would definitely entice them. This Hunter wears his kills armor & equipment as trophies & has become quite adept at wielding a lightsaber.

I like it, it would be interesting to further the idea of not just a Saber wielding Predator, but an actual Predator Jedi. I imagine that they'd be at odds with their Predator heritage and the Jedi Code.

I would dirty up the armor with some blackwashing and blood smears; but this basic idea rawks. I love the helmet shoulder pad the most. If I had a spare Pred I'd try this with a Galactic Marine, easy.

It pains me to do this but I agree with AV. A little weathering on the armor pieces and its perfect. The concept and execution are flawless. I like it. A lot.

May weather it. Really hate the weathered-look for the most part though...

Very cool idea.

Or for a fraction of the cost you can make your own bashing a McFarlane pred to a joe.

As for getting Preds, you're better off getting the Mcfarlane Predator figures and bashing them onto an articulated figure (thanks to GIJoey for the idea). In the end you get a bulkier, more intimidating Pred.

So the McFarlane like 5 to 6 inch predators. Or are there smaller ones.
