Prime 1 Studio is excited to introduce the next entry to the Predators grand family, joining the Museum Masterline Series: the 1:3 Scale MMPR-06 Chopper Predator from the 2004 film Alien vs. Predator!
In this incredible crossover blockbuster, Chopper, along with his brothers Scar and Celtic, were all sent to Earth to undertake an initiation Hunt in an ancient pyramid buried beneath Antarctica. The pyramid served as a hunting ground, where Predators used Aliens as prey in order to graduate from Young Blood Yautjas to a Blooded Yautja, thus being considered an adult and a full member of its Clan. Let’s take a closer look at Chopper, the middle of the three brothers.
As you have seen from the previous announcement of the other two brothers of the trio, Scar, and Celtic, Prime 1 Studio takes immense pride in delivering nothing less than excellence. Our artisans continue their momentum for this Predator lineup and bring the final Yautja of the movie to life. At over 40 inches tall, Chopper, also sometimes called the Gill predator due to the distinctive gills on his Bio-Mask, stands tall and fearsome. He takes the name from his arm-mounted scimitars, which are longer than the usual Wristblades of his brothers. Like the rest of the hunting party, he is also fully geared from head to toe, equipped with an arsenal of advanced technology and weaponry. Massively muscular, the predator has both arms ready to slice at enemies foolish enough to come within reach. In addition to the necklace of smaller skulls, two human skulls are mounted on pikes on his back, adding to his overall imposing height. The base features ancient Yautja-constructed ruins as well as a broken spearhead; it is accompanied by two silver and black “AVP” logo plates to display.
