On this one, if Dutch doesn't look like a good Arnie, it's rights, not sculpting quality.
Getting Dutch for me is dependent on 2 things. 1) How much the portrait looks like Arnie, and 2) if it doesn't look good, how feasible is hunting down a good head to replace him, how does the head connect and all.

Well worse case the sculpt is kinda weak, we all know DAMN WELL Darren is more than capable of turning a sub par Arnold sculpt into absolute perfection.
Just look at his Terminator work!

I just want the razor !. And with the bd version the snapped razor !
Mac 1st wave - crappy headsculpt
Mac 2nd wave - perfect headsculpt and broken razor
That's not my concern, it's more of getting one that can attach to whatever method HT uses, last we saw them, they looked to be a new body, so questions regarding how it connects and how easy a swap is. The ball socket heads aren't easy to replace like the neck adapter ones.

Well since Darren usually works on the existing head, I dont think it would be an issue.
That is of course Darren was willing to rework the sculpt for you.

GREAT news. Hope they have Arnie likeness rights.

I think if the Dutch is really crummy it would probably be cheaper to bash one together (even if a reworked head was made) than to buy the figure and a new head. That is of course unless HT is making a specific body for Arnold.

From the leaked pics, it looks like it is. A beefier muscle body with joints at the shoulder. i.e. not one piece rubber.

I can't wait for this... THESE are the Predator figures I have been waiting for. I've sold all of my other ones, because I knew I was buying them soley because I wanted this one. Now I can finally have the figures I wanted from the start.

Yeah, this is not a problem. Plenty of heads out there to replace a compromised sculpt.
I'm in for P1 and Dutch at least. Sounds like this will be the 1st 2 Figs offered. HT will do a BD P1 and a 2nd Dutch Fig... count on it.
Don't forget the Mud-caked Dutch version...
(It kept the Predator from picking him up via the infra-red sights.)

Bet the P1 has light function (LED) on his self destruct wrist panel...

I feel the same way. Anything else is just fluff IMO. This is the real movie!
