NECA: Predator Movie Franchise Figures

[P.]

^

how come Neca has that backbone/skull item painted 10 times better than HT, while HT is 10 times more expensive?
p.s. wow, that prey doesn't bow before death. always holding his head high, even without muscles.

interesting, had no idea this was coming. Upgraded re-release of the older SDCC exclusive, I'll get one even though I have the first lol:

Im weak for plastic, I admit it lol

I’m a big fan of these ultimate predators. Both the movie predators and concrete jungle have been great.



I should probably add Dutch to the collection this time around as I passed on the original releases.

Ultimate Ahab incoming! I was hoping they'd re-issue him with the Engineer's weapon

Yes, saves me spending a fortune on eBay now - and looks like a far better figure.

I have nary the slightest clue what that's from.

Bring me more P1. Any and all humans and a self-medicating Predator with open medical kit and bleeding leg-wound. Also bring me an Ultimate City Hunter Battle-damaged version and Harrigan (with variants)

Some Fire and Stone comic.

 

[Heavy Metal Spike]

I have nary the slightest clue what that's from . . .

Ahab is from a number of the Dark Horse graphic novels / comics - "Fire & Stone" followed by "Life & Death".

Well worth a read.

I really think the AvP Preds are the best Predator figures NECA has produced. The AvP designs are not even close to my favorite (Jungle Hunter all the way!), but the sculpt, articulation, accessory count, paintwork, quality control and their sheer size and heft really do make then stand out amongst the other figures. On a shelf compared to the rest they just look incredibly impressive.

Agreed.

The new Ultimate figures are fantastic, with the AvP Predators build this is going to be a great figure.

And it's definitely worth checking out the comics Ahab comes from, if you haven't already.

i was wondering if anyone has ordered any of the predator figures from chinabay, how is the quality, they look to be nice figures, and some of the older released figures do go or a reduced price, any info from someone who has purchased one would be great, thanks

I just got a replacement unmasked head for JH today because the original had a air bubble in the molding. I noticed that the beads on the dreads were all painted even the undersides, unlike the normal release, I wonder if they plain on doing a second production of the Ult JH with improved paint?

Ok, let the beating begin...after lambasting the Ultimate JH painted body, I bought one. The ones I first saw were terrible and the paint was thick and gloopy. I saw a few in another TRU and they looked good, so I bought one.
Once I opened it i was pleased, quite nice and the painted torso and legs blend well with the colored plastic head arms and feet.
I recant my previous posts although still would have been better with zero painted skin like the City Hunter.

I took the arms off one of mine and gave them to one of the previous releases - the Battle-damaged figure with the blood on his face and chest (it came in a 2-pack with a bloodied Dutch as I recall) - he needed the fully articulated arms to reach his wrist computer for setting off the bomb.

That's good to hear, too bad I can't pick my own since I buy online.

Exactly what I am doing.

Same here - mine is in my BBTS "Pile-Of-Loot" and is doubtless from the INITIAL batch.

Thanks for the update though btby100 & #Brian

Oh well - first world problems.
