you guys looked great in the video, the banner pic excellent . looked thruogh the pix, they're pretty cool too, have to sa besides the predator costumes, my other favorites were the goggled cat woman(was in the tri pic), cobra commander, among others, the preds rock ! huuuuuuuuuuhaaaaaaaaaaa!
 
Ohhh boy, where to start????

From the ride down the elevator to the hotel lobby to the end of the day, it was mind boggling, to say the least.....

We got asked for pix in the hotel lobby, on the walk from the hotel to the con Lobby C, even in our break "lairs" at the bottom of the stairs and that nook (forgot the name of it).

Notable moments:

~Cheers and applause from the convention staff and patrons as we came into Lobby C.

~Having to march single file due to the amount of people.

~Merchants in the booths taking our picture.

~Getting an interview from PBS during one of our visits to Sideshow Collectibles (was it when Elvira was coming in?).

~Invading the Star Wars stage and seeing people almost ten deep around us.

~At one of our break times, a young man said that when we came in it gave him the "heebie Jeebies".

~On the upper level another young man stopped dead in his tracks and got the "deer in the headlights" look and wouldn't budge left or right as we came toward him.

~The banner and tribute to Stan Winston.

Already sooooo cool to see you guys suited up for the Con...but a random bonus to see you guys with one of my friends, "Dice" the suicide girl. Cant wait to call her now and say ..."so....ya met a couple of my brothers"

Way to represent...wish I could have been there
 
I'm still in San Diego for the next couple of days, and damn, I want to upload all the good stuff we shot on Saturday! This was insane, people got excited when just one or two predators show up, we had 7 at one point, and peoples' jaws just dropped to the floor!! Some folks just stood there nailed to the ground. Several asked me whether we were promoting a new movie.
As Bovine mentioned, I've shot a massive amount of video & photos, which will be edited down into several clips - it's way too much too fit it all into one clip! But it will be worth to wait for it, guys! Movies are coming up in the next weeks! This has never been seen before, not even in the history of Comic con!

I had a great time hanging out with you guys, meeting you in person and going through it all up close. Newfound respect, you guys are hardcore to pull this thing off! We were mobbed big time but came through victorious due to some great team effort of everybody involved.

More to come, stay tuned!

edit: Carl, Ian White cancelled just a few days prior to the con, his name was even printed in the program guide but we just found out on the day of his appearence. Everybody was looking forward to meeting him.
Him not showing up was a setback for all of us but our Saturday appearence really made up for it.
 
Exactly - but it looks like we really made an impression this year, our banner tribute to Stan, our superior costumes and taking over the Star Wars stage. We've definitely got notoriety now---and SDCC 08 was just the place to do it!
Here's some footage somebody took of some of our people suited up at the con. Scott and Julie for sure, not sure who the others are. Great job on the suits, guys.

Carlart,

Youre welcome

Predators RULE!

The other two hunters are Pdisc and Hdogg, plus Uncle, Hdogg's friend, Linda and IamPredator on support team.

:eek: Outstanding pics, Phenominal showing! I really enjoy hearing
of the Elvira and Stormtrooper "shutdowns", too cool! I can only hope we are received
as well at Dragon*con. I'm gettin anxious!
 
:eek: .........That was what we pretty much got all day long. People clapped,high fived and were just flat out in awe of what they saw. We rolled hard to the San Diego Comic Con this year and expect to top it next year. When myself,hdogg and Bovine got back to the hotel, we were waiting for the elevator to take us up.I then felt a tap on my shoulder to turn around and see Seth Green (Dr. Evils son and creator of Robot Chicken) and he asked if to he could get a picture of all of us and then preceeded to say that "THIS IS THE COOLEST **** I HAVE EVER SEEN.....WELL DONE GUYS". Thought that was a huge compliment coming from someone in the industry and its usually the other way around (people asking him for pictures). We ruled the Con this year......there is no other way of putting it...plain and simple. If anyone ever needs info about next year,where to stay,where to go,places to check out.....dont hesitate to ask.I lived here in San Diego my whole life and would love to help you all out. I hope to see/meet more of you guys/girls next year. It was nice to see some people from the lair.I made some new friends and caught up with a couple old ones. I will be posting very soon and a HUGE THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO HELPED US AT THE CON. A SPECIAL THANKS TO CARL FOR GETTING THIS BANNER PUT TOGETHER AND OUT TO ME ASAP.THE PICS AND VIDEO WE ALL GOT WILL NOT DISAPPOINT. GENE FOR HELPING ME PUT TOGETHER BADASS SUIT....PICS TO COME.
