These "Dogs" are the favored pets of the Tracker Predator - relentless hunting beasts who travel in packs, flushing out prey and testing them. The hounds are incredibly durable, as gunfire barely seems to make them flinch unless aimed very well. Despite their hilariously awkward hornd, it is clear how they eat - the hound can dip his head underneath the biggest spikes to snack on stuff under his chin.

The Unmanned Aerial System, Predator aircraft ready for take-off on the runway.
Set up in January 2004 as an urgent operational requirement to support coalition operations in the Multi-National Division (South East) or MND (SE) of Iraq, 1115 Flight consists of 45 predominantly Royal Air Force personnel comprising pilots, sensor operators, engineers and other support personnel. The pilots and sensor operators work round-the-clock at Ground Control Stations housed at Nellis Air Force Base whilst the engineers are based at Creech Air Force Base both of which are in Nevada USA.
Flying the Predator Unmanned Aerial System, they provide vital persistent, wide-area surveillance to support troops on the ground in both Iraq and Afghanistan. If called upon to do so they can also provide close air support, video support of surface actions, air strike coordination, and direct fire support.

Hello People :)
After all this time I’m back with a new creation . The reason you haven’t seen anything for so long is because I went through a process of rethinking the way I build . I used to mainly recreate models from Star Wars or DC comics , with a sole purpose of making the MOC look as accurate to the original as possible , sacrificing stability , playability and overall good structure most of the time . I was no longer satisfied with that . From now on my goals are to build MOCs that both look good , and also are fun , playable , contain smart play features and generally function well as toys.
The first result of this “new style” is what you see above : my own original Batmobile . While it draws inspiration from a couple of Batmobiles ( mainly Arkham Knight’s and BvS’s) it is my own spin on the classic vehicle , the Predator . It’s packed with action features : a stud shooter turret , a “hook” style spring-loaded shooter, opening trunk with all the gear you’ll need ( batarangs , a new remote batarang made from some old knight helmet feathers , extra ammo and a line launcher ) and the ability to transform between two modes , one ideal for battles and one built for speed. Also, the turret can be swapped out for a winch , which can be attached to the front spring loaded shooter and then shot - you can catch enemies’ vehicles , bring down walls , shoot it towards a roof and then climb , the possibilities are endless. I have also built a display MOC for my Batmobile - which is the first segment of what will eventually become a full Batcave . It has working lights and spins slowly - as a car turntable should (Both using official Power Functions elements only ).
I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions on this . Do you like this new style of building ? Do you like the look of the car ? What about the functions ? Do you want to see a full Batcave ? Your comments are very important to me :)

Someone dressed up in a predator costume, quite cool really - it even made the clicking sound they make in the movie.
Donc voici un Tie moc Predator. Je suis assez content du résultat final. Par contre celui n’est pas fait pour jouer. Les ailes à l’arrière sont trop lourdes. C’est pour ça que je ne me suis pas fatigué à faire un support, à la longue la barre qui les tient se démonterait sous le poids. C’est pas si fragile que ça, mais faut penser à resserrer certaines liaisons des ailes quand on le remue (pour prendre des photos par exemple). Je suis assez content de mon mécanisme des ailes, il est assez ressemblant à l’originale, et sert vraiment à maintenir les ailes en position, enfin un certain temps, le poids et la gravité faisant le reste. A 4-5 futurs modifs de couleurs près, c’est fini. C’est-à-dire qu’il me maque 4 ou 5 pièces en gris claires que j’ai remplacé par du gris foncé et du noir.
Concernant le Tie predator lui-même :
starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Predator-class_fighter
Quand on touche à un Tie Legend, il y a quelques soucis à prendre en compte. Et encore ici j’ai des illustrations des comics. Mon souci c’est qu’elles diffèrent parfois, surtout concernant les images de l’arrière…
J’aime bien les Tie « pas pratique ». Et celui-là il mérite une médaille dans le genre, et même dans sa définition « officielle ».
Un point que je ne remets pas en cause, au moins sur ce Tie là, les ailes ne gênent pas la vue du pilote. Non, il y a la verrière d’origine pour ça !
Il y en a officiellement deux types. Le 1er type, c’est la verrière avec les fines ouvertures horizontales. Comme n’importe qui, qui ne soit pas aveugle, les pilotes se sont plains que ça gênait la visibilité… SANS BLAGUES ! Et y’avait pas un ingénieur pour s’en rendre compte ?!
Du coup les chefs d’escadrilles ont droit à une verrière plus classique pour y voir quelque chose. Mais pas leur escadron. Sans doute pour souligner la loyauté aveugle en l’Empire ? LOL !
Bon alors à part ça, il vole bien, hyper manœuvrable grâce à la géométrie variable de ses ailes. Il reste le chasseur spatial le plus manœuvrable de son temps, et l’un des plus rapide.
Heureusement qu’il peut les replier pour les vols atmosphériques. Parce que deux panneaux en prises directe au vent…
Dans le vide spatial OK, mais ce qui est très bête c’est que la première fois qu’on les voit en comics, c’est avec panneaux écartés dans l’atmosphère de Coruscant… De plus ça ne doit pas tellement être un Tie, plus un Fie (Four Ion Engine ou simplement un TIE pour Tetra Ion Engine ?). Tout le monde s’en foue ? Je me prends trop la tête ?
Ensuite ils sont stockés façon chauve-souris dans les Destroyer Stellaire. D’où ma question : ils les garent comment ? Marche arrière verticale ?
A l’avant il y a aussi des variantes. Concernant les 4 blasters, soit ils sont représentés en « X », soit en « + ». Le plus souvent en « + » quand même. C’est donc ce que j’ai choisi de représenter. Et puis j’avais beau avoir 2 ou 3 idées de construction en « X », c’est plus simple et plus solide en « + » comme ça.
Sinon il dispose d’un bouclier (léger) et d’un hyperdrive. Ha et le mécanisme de géométrie variable des ailes est un cauchemar à entretenir.

London Super Comic Convention, Saturday 15th March 2014.
There was a 'dance off' outside the ExCel Centre by 2 people in Predator costumes. They were from a group called UK Predators, who do Predator cosplay (and they look amazing!) It was very amusing!
I even got some video of them dancing :)

AGM-114 Hellfire missiles are called Fire-and-forget method of missile guidance. This term is used by the military for a type of missile that once launched doesn't need further guidance through such devices as illumination of the target or wire guidance (TOW). It can also hit the target without the launcher being in line-of-sight of the target.
