I just watched AvP... and it got me thinking. Predators have big fat cumbersome hands and fingers, with claw type things on the ends, but all of the equipment they use, such as weapons, machinery and spaceships, seam all too fiddly and intricate, for them to have been able to build, from the design plans for these things.

The majority of this Predator tech has been seen in AvP. As we get to see a lot more equipment and stuff than in previous films, and since Predator with Arnie was in the Jungle, and we only see similar weaponry etc in Predator 2, apart from when the Predator is 'searing' his wounds with that green iluminous stuff, even then his fingers look to chunky to use that burner thing, and the end in the spaceship, we don't really see much.

Some of the weapons, such as the throwing discs and the shoulder cannon, or the telescopic lance would be far too fiddly to make, even if they built machines to build their equipment, say on a production line... how did they manage to build the machines that built these weapons etc.

Also in AvP we see a lot more of their ships, inside and out and get to see holographic computers showing the insides of the pyramid etc.... you could say this is a big plot hole, since we've never seen anything being built, but just used by the Predators.

My only theory could be that the humans, who originaly worshiped them 1000 years ago as seen in AvP, were trained to build these things for the Predators, but to me thats a cop out in a potential sub plot, for showing how the stuff gets made.

what do you think?
