A few years ago, I picked up the following figure when a fellow modeler in my local model club passed away. Nothing is missing from this resin garage kit.
Eventually, I’d like to sell it, but when that will be and how much is uncertain. But I really don’t know anything else about the kit or how rare it may be, what it’s worth, etc. Has anyone ever seen or built this kit before? Any additional information you can tell me about it?
The casting detail looks very good for being a resin garage kit. Years ago a You Tube modeler (Classic Plastic 101)made a female Predator figure kits but sadly he passed away and his site is no longer active. I think that you should keep it and build it in honor of the modeler in your club who passed away.

I don’t even know anything about figure painting. Never done figures. I’m mostly a model ship building guy.
Saw this last night before I headed off to bed. I have NEVER seen this one before but there’s a couple of folks that I know that might be interested in it.
Checked on The Clubhouse forum and couldn’t find anything. Found a couple of WIP pics on FB…

Yeah, I really don’t know what I’m going to do with the kit as I don’t build and paint figures. In the future, either I’ll sell it or I’ll put it in my local model club’s auction.
Please let me know when that auction happens!

My local model club is having their auction on June 14, 2025.
Hobbytown
1708 S. 108th St.
Milwaukee, WI
Auction starts at 1 pm.
If you need more details, just let me know. It’s doubtful I’ll put the Predator figure in this year’s auction.
Thanks WhatIfRebel! Is that the SWAMPs club, the Bong club, or the Billy Mitchell club?
I’ll offer the advice I offer to any modeler who hesitates about a figure: You can do it. You have the skills. Forget that it’s a figure model, and just think of it as a model. There’s no particular magic to it, just takes getting started, and practice, like anything else.

It’s the Billy Mitchell Club. We have a group on Facebook. It’s the “Billy Mitchell Scale Modeling Club”.
