Apparently that would have forced them to charge more, Predators are bigger, more plastic etc etc.

Well, lah dee dah! Without the open mouthed head it's not really "ultimate" now is it?
I'm sure people would have paid a few extra dollars. I would have.

I would have preferred the open mouthed headsculpt to be in the ultimate JH myself. I have a closed mouth already and the open version was only made available in the tru 2 pack if I remember right. Regardless I'll still buy one.

Boo I was hoping for an open mouth.

For some reason I'm not all that excited about this release as much as I anticipated. Something about this new body seems off, I'm thinking the new type articulation disrupts somehow the original sculpt lines. The chest area appears to be a little shrunk and the way they redesigned the crotch area is also a downgrade. I was expected more progress tbh in this sculpt evolution. Maybe it's just the proto and the actual figure will be all right. I will wait for the first reviews to make a decision.
they shrunk an area that was already terribly shrunk?
The added articulation also had certain downgrading effects on the Ultimate Terminators. Hopefully this guy can strike some great Predator poses to make up for it.

No the TRU vs Dutch exclusive had the closed mouth version.

Very sure the open mouth sculpt was used for the "Classic" Predator in the PREDATORS packaging.
I have the open mouth from some other release. Decent paintjob too. I don't have a good paintjob for the closed mandible sculpt though so hopefully this will rectify that - one never knows for sure.
On a separate note, they really couldn't pose this better? What's the point in having a diorama when you make them look as toylike as possible with your posing.

I'm talking about the tru JH & CH 2 pack that had the JH with the open mandibles.

People who are in charge of photos and posing can NEVER pose a figure right, see Mezco, Neca, anyone? See the conventions and how they pose the figure, they don't care most of the time.
Some figures look like crap because of the pose and lighting and when they're actually good looking in a decent poser's hands.
something's very wrong with that predator's neck.
1) it's a sphere, while a neck should be a tube by definition.
2) it's not covered with a collar. [/QUOTE]

Predator 30th anniversary is getting 7 figures according to a recent tweet - including a ''Jungle Demon'' Predator - looks to be a jungle-deco 'cloaked' predator with the flashing green eyes.
I tried posting the packaging shot here but can't seem to do it by any means I'm aware of.
