Predator advice.

[jayw13th]

I am thinking of getting my first Hot Toys Predator figure, and i need some advice. A local collector shop has A Predator 2 Lost Predator and a AvP:R Cleaner kit Predator. I can only afford one right now, though hoping i can get the other later. So which is better between the 2 to get first? Or is it better to wait and hope something better comes along later? I have watched the youtube video's about assembling both and they seem very annoying. They have the She predator but i am not that impressed with her. They are priced the same at $140.00 and are both mint in perfect box's very well taken care of.
Any advice would be appreciated,
Thank You.

I would get Predator 1 that was just released... Wolf and Lost will not value too much right now and the Predator 1 will only rise in price (in my opinion). I would get the Predator 1 before his value rises..

the lost predator.

Yes, the Predator 1 fig is the one to get right now, although you can get the Lost and the Wolf for cheaper than $140 on the boards right now. As a matter of fact I was thinking about selling my Lost pred for $105 shipped.

Thanks Guys. Answers my question, i will wait.

the predator 1 figure is their finest to date. and likely the best they'll ever make.*
(*assuming they don't re-hash their older figures and that i will hate the "Predators" sequel)

although, $105 shipped for the Lost is a sweet deal. i'd jump on it if i didn't already have one.

Have to agree. You can't go wrong with the granddaddy of all Preds, P1. Nothing but the P2 Elder comes close.

Did you NOT see Furious1 saying he might be willing to let that Lost Pred go for $105 shipped. Some people. smh.

Don't wait too long. Find a P1 now and get it. It's increasing already. Try to find one for around $175 if you can.

Yep saw that a little too late. But that's alright I was mainly wanting opinions on the 2 Predators i listed as they are on hand and i was interested if they are worth adding to my mediocre collection. I appreciate every ones opinion on the Predator 1 i would prefer it but as stated in my first post i can not afford more then $140.00 plus a little tax. And
$105 is a great deal on a Lost but as he said he is THINKING about selling. But that answers my question again as i have had a few responses about the Lost.

pred 1. Have both lost and pred 1 and to be honest the pred 1 is simply not to be missed. Don't get me wrong lost is a good figure just not in the same league as the predator 1 figure. If your crazy enough to sell it in the future(i certainly won't be) you'll also get a good price back on it without a doubt. So spending the 175 would be a much wiser investment then spending it on the lost i would assume.

Plus overall its the best pred from ht yet and getting harder and harder to find.

If you are a Predator fan, don't forget about Dutch, too. He's a MUST have for any Predator fan.. His value will rise as well.. Good luck, man

I think the Lost predator is on SS gift card eligible products for $160, which would be great if anyone had a $100 gift card.

i'm a Predator fan and i could give a crap about a commando Arnold figure.
i'd rather have Billy or Mac and the Billy figure sucks. maybe HT can get Bill Duke's likeness...

I was so focused on the Predators i missed that they have a Dutch there too.
He is about $15 dollars more but close enough to my budget. But would prefer the Predators.

start with a predator first. Don't go Human yet. I'm telling you, you need to work a few more jobs or come into a little more income and get the P1. You'll be kicking yourself if you wait and then decide you really want him and have to pay 2 or 3 times as much in a year or two. They sold out quickly, fastest predator sellout I've experienced and I got in when P2 was released, then the cleaner, Lost, Machiko. This P1 is HOT.
