This mask is very similar to the mask from Predator 2. It's a different color, but very close in design. I do like the new, subtle features of this mask. The "Spikes", or "horns" are very cool. Giving the mask a Battle-Scarred look is a great way to show that this Predator is VERY battle tested. I like the writing on the mask so much better than Andersons' "markings" from the first. Having the Predator rub a bit of Alien blood on its' mask makes the Predator seem to only be instictive. Having writing on the mask gives the impression of intelligence rather than instinct. I love the look of everything so far. The brothers have said all along they wanted to get back to the "roots" of each series. They seem to be backing their words so far. They have made subtle design changes. Changes might be the wrong word. They went back to the originals and just added a few small things.
