Amazing, the link still works. Hey, this would make a good model for JSI. No pilots needed. lol

If you were to do the Alien Predator and some xenomorphs, then I'm in.
As for the UAV, I don't see a market for it.

I would love to see a MQ-1 Predator and MQ-8 Fire Scout Helicopter.

I personnaly prefer the MQ-9 Reaper, perheaps because it has a more graceful (and more classical though inverted) tail. But of course, the Reaper is 4x heavier and has 25% more wingspan than the Predator and up to 6 Hellfire instead of 2. So, more resin, more money, more pieces to cast, more risk with the thin wings and landing gear...
I hope to have the skill to make some day the much smaller Raven, would be 3 inches in 1/18th scale. This could make a simple diorama:
Or, if PH makes us a Predator, he could also make the small FINDER "parasite" UAV as a possible payload for the big plane:

I think it would be great for a diorama as long as it had landing gear. If not it would make for a nice model hanging from the ceiling with my modern fighters. I vote yes.

I have been planning to scale up a paper model Predator from Paper-replika to get a 1:18 version.
