NECA 1/4 scale predator

Guys just do not feed him. Don't respond.

Well it took 60 posts because I like to go into depth and reason on why I feel what I feel, and why my opinion is what it is. I read everything many times to make sure I don't say one thing and say something that I agree with that I wouldn't agree with on another post. Don't want to sound stupid.



IM NOT A TROLL!!!

I am just angry that this figure lost alot of potential, yet it is still a ok looking one. Alright. Anyone feel free to change the subject, by all means go ahead.

Here are some pics I just took. Hopefully, it'll give you guys a better idea as to how solid this figure is. Overall I am very pleased with it.

Thanks for the pictures turtle! The mold doesn't look bad and noticable on your photos. The paint and everything is really impressive on this!! What do you think about the mold on it's mask! Is it very noticable in person?

can Anyone tell me what would be the best type of paint to fix this figure, I refuse to use cheap acrylics but, that's what people tell me to use

how can i make the paint look glossy without buying that spray that makes it look like nail polish shiny, any tips? I would appreciate it greatly,

Beautiful shoots, turtle!
What kind of camera are you using?

...and holy ___t at that life size pred!

That last pic with the big pred looks off the chain benny!!!

Very nice shots turtle, the helmeted version is much nicer than I expected.

It really doesnt look a 80$ figure, in some shots it almost looks a high-end collectible. I would remove those ribbons in a heartbeat, though.

Ok. YOU SIR, resold me. I hate the mould line (HATE IT), but those are some stunning pics. I expect to be flamed for this, but I'm man enough to not hide my reorder. If I hate it more in person, I'll sell it. But, your excellent photos have me willing to take the chance once again.

Okay, why not use the acrylics? I use them for Predators and they work. I then use Future floor wax for the semi glos finish.

To be honest if I wouldn't know this is a NEca Pred I would say this is a high end stuff. It is just look that good on these photos.

Thats some quick action. Probably best to stay out of the thread now. There could well be some less flattering photos to come that could change your mind again.

Thanks guys. The seam is ther and it is noticeable, but keep in mind this is a $80 figure. The figure itself has so much presence that it is easy to over look the seam. Let just say it doesnt bother me enough to prevent me from picking it up at CSC.

Yeah. I think the problem was there were no flattering pictures to this point. Nice to see a good batch. In my defense, we all go by what we're presented no?

What I still don't understand is why did Neca take out that wire running across the back pack to the medical kit. It was always on the prototype pictures, the 12 inch 2-ups at toy fair. The classic predator each version has it. Even in the very first mold pictures shown, you can see a mold line their, where they were going to put it. Now its just not their anymore. Every little thing counts as accuracy to me.
