Hot Toys - MMS173 - Predator 2: 1/6th scale City Hunter Predator Collectible Figure

Geez, so HT is re-using trophies too.

They are and...

They want people to pay 200 for him too...

People will still buy, including me.

I've already shared my positive thoughts on the shape and texture of the bio.

Help me out, there's something about the bio that looks out of place, it's still the look I want and I'm greatful for that but...

Would it look better smoother?

Depends. The purists want something almost completely smooth (like in the movie), but I have a feeling that won't jive too well with the rough texture they've already given the rest of the armor. We'd need to change more than the bio. On top of that, I haven't seen any P2 collectibles short of the life-size HCG helmet replica that are smooth. Maybe I'm just used to seeing the wrong thing and have gotten accustomed to it.

Personally, I like this look because it has more of a rugged, Aztec-like feel (which is how I felt when I first saw the film; it's completely different from the P1).

Instant pre-order for me!

Sure, there are some details that are off. But overall, this figure looks great!

I've already got the bd version, So I'll pass, Yeah the paint apps are better but not so much that I'm going to buy another one !
Come on HT do something original instead of just selling out and churning out re-releases

 

[Devil_666]

Best version of the P2 bio I've ever seen in 1/6 scale (video and paint work by SSF's own FigureMasterLes).

Instant buy for me. Luckily I didn't bought overpriced old version after I sold mine long ago. It should come with diorama base though.

 

[Dront]

I'm gonna throw away mine and to get the new one

 

[Rotfish]

That's one nice repaint, though. Looks very clean and professional.

It would have been nice if HT would included a backdrop for this figure or at least a nice stand the 2009 Classic Predator and the Classic Predator "Predators" version.

I still think the original head (besides the extra long dreads) is a lot more movie accurate than the new head.

I have not had time to go through this thread cos of starting me job!
Can someone sum up the cons of this?
I dont own the original but am on the fence about it seeing as we will see this in 1/4 scale.

 

[crazypredator2]

[inuka]

It's from HT and apparently it sucks because it's compleatly inacurate.
