Those that may remember me from back in the day, I used to go by TehEl1te. I've long since changed my whole brand to SharkForge and am so stoked to see this community grow. I already recognize so many names and it feels like nothing has even changed! Thank you for letting me part of this day one! Welcome back Branden! It feels really good to be back at it with everyone. It was a team effort getting this place up and running. We couldn't have done it without the entire MOD team. 5 Quote
Hishy Fit Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 Hello All you beautiful predators!! The Lair being back is just amazing!!! So great to see all you amazing people here again - I can't wait to see what you've all been up to. I have been a fan of Alien and Predator as long as I can remember and this character and costume will always be my first love. Even though it ended up being one hell of a gateway drug into all the costumes. You guys are the best!!! Love you all!!!!! Hishy Fit (Amber) 12 Quote
Carl Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 I thought I'd never see this place again. Other Predator forums have come and gone, but THIS is THE quintessential Predator forum, rising like a phoenix once again. Big thank you to Andrew and others involved for doing this. I haven't done anything Predator in such a long time. You guys have inspired me - again. I've missed all of you, and it feels a little surreal to see familiar names and faces coming together once again. Looking forward to new possibilities and creativity on the one and only Hunter's Lair! 10 Quote
Mannowar Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 Wow! Look at all these throwback names!!! LOVE IT! Mannowar here. I think I hit the original Lair around mid-2000's. I've been costuming to some extent ever since. Most of my stuff now is P1 based, but I do offer some AvP, and a few random outliers. GREAT to be back! 14 Quote
Wolf Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) Hello folks, This is Marcus (MProjects), I was a long time member of the original Lair from around 2008+. I used to go by the name of "Wolf Predator 1". Met some incredibly talented people on there, I made a lot of amazing friends and memories, Nice to see some familiar names again. I hope the Lair continues for good! Edited February 4, 2022 by Wolf 11 Quote

OzzyHuntress Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Hi my name is Emily Newton I’m from Australia, 20 years old who’s been a fan for over 5 years. A lot you probably know me on Facebook and instagram as the female predator (Swift Wing), that made a social media hit in the AvP and predator community. I’m new at this and I only started it last year. I’m already one of the well known huntress around and I thanks everyone who appreciate my costume. I’m also glad to finally join this site, I’ve known about it for years and I’m truly thankful that I can be a part of your community. 14 Quote

HTXpred Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) James Reyes (HTXpred) Joined pretty late I was in highschool back when you all were killing it but I was aware of the lair and lurked the page for many many years. Got to a point in my life where I finally found an avenue to start buying suits in 2015. I formed Lone Star Hunters with Celtic Torres in 2017 and we’ve been performing at con’s ever since with our booths. I have a goal to run a tandem graphic novel/ short film series since I was about 4. Was completely inspired when i saw that this could be a reality when you all did what you did in 03-04’. I have gotten everyone I know involved and nearly every friend and member I know has a suit. We’ll be filming teasers over the next few months can’t wait to see you all on the other side.

Celtic Torres Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 I have cosplaying as a predator going on 5 to 6 years and have become a collector of predator suits and female suits to as go along I guess I will be sharing me in them and pictures I’m also on Instagram and Facebook 6 Quote
MeanGene Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Welcome welcome. Great predator costumes. I remember your name from somewhere. The elder mask you have in the second pic. Is that a Bob Baggy mask? Quote
MeanGene Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 I have to say. Reading all of these threads has for me super pumped! It really is good to see all these old names. I wish the Lair never died so many years ago. But it is a testament to this place and the people on it that we can all reconnect and feel that same thrill for this crazy site! Really really thrilled for what the future holds. Now let's get to work! Tell your friends to join. We're not here to take part. We're to take over! 6 Quote

Valkyrie Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) Hello Everyone! My name is Gen. I think I joined the original Lair around 2010. I started out as a hardcore lurker until I initially tried to start my own build at that time but life inevitably got in the way so I was never able to finish. In fact, I'm fairly sure my last sculpt is somewhere in my basement. I think my handle was PrettyHuntress (or something like that) haha. It's so great to see that the Lair is back up and running and also to see so many familiar names! I'm so excited for this. In any case, my new name is "Valkyrie" as a tribute to my first suit which has been dubbed the Valkyrie Huntress. Ain't she a beaut? I love her...currently working on getting a bio made for her so I'm super stoked for that. Also can't wait to get back out on the hunt with y'all. 🤩🙌🏾 Edited February 5, 2022 by Valkyrie Picture didn't load properly 15 Quote

Kithunter Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Welcome everyone.... Can't tell you how cool it is to see the reaction to the relaunch of the lair...we are all so beyond thrilled everyone is having that deep affection for this place. We all feel that the lair was more than just a forum but a place we felt became part of us.. our passion, our craft and one of the most creative forces in our lives. Let's spread the word to 4 corners ...all the Hunters throughout the world have a home here.. The lair is back... and I'm so excited for all of us and the future.. 10 1 Quote
