Hot Toys Classic Predator from predators movie.

[icyone]

I love the complains on this guy on the sideshow freak forum , they really know how to ruin love for the predator's.They are not prefect to the movie's but holy hell do they look amazing on my table and that's more than good for me.I think this is going to be one of my favorites!!!!!

What are some of the complaints people are making about this figure? It looks extremely accurate to me.

I think one is about the mandibles being affixed to the Bios and not separate (which is pretty legit to me).

Collectors are just picky these days if you ask me.Everything has to be 100 percent PERFECT.I see how you guys might disagree with what I said but what I really mean is that people want it straight out of the movie.But its impossible.You cant make it look that perfect.It still looks kick ass to me.

There saying the head is to small, the paint app was off on the first bunch and that was a big one , and yeah like Ricky said the mandibles are large which i kind of agree.Compared to the rest there large and stick out, i have the shadow and hes got the same deal.

Got email saying shipped on the 22nd... WOOHOO

 

[xander2323]

Wow - extremely underwhelmed by this final product.

Apart from the light up laser I have to agree. From the pics it looks like the poor stunted cousin of the 18" Neca. Sure the mask can come off but is it worth the extra price tag? I was going to get one but think the money is better spend on Narin kits and a bit of time spent on a decent paint-up.

The skills gained from a good paint up ,priceless.But you must not own any hot toys preds to put it as you have writen?

Ya know... I don't really care. It's a frikkin' PREDATOR figure and that's all I need to know.

Now, if it looked like all bloody Hades and wasn't built very good there would be an issue but it's not, so...

The first batch was indeed flawed, but Hot Toys has corrected the problems. They realized something was wrong with the figures pre-ordered at Ani-Com, and this is their solution. Check out the rest of OMG's awesome pics in his SSF thread and see for yourself what the final figure looks like:

Improved forehead spotting color, more spotting all around the headsculpt, painted quills on the brows, fixed eye paint, and black lenses.



Here are just a few of OMG's pictures, but I highly recommend hitting that link and browsing through the stunning high-res 80+ picture gallery for yourselves (if you haven't already):

screen accurate or not, it looks Bad ass! looks even more BA when compared to the P1, the only thing that bugging me a little bit is the bio. The bio is off, one of the reason is the lenses but again who cares? it looks Bad Ass!

 

[Blade3327]

The lenses are still innaccurate in sculpt, but at least they fixed the paint on them. Good news is: they're probably the easiest thing you can customize on an HT Predator.

Either way, I can't wait for this guy to show up at my doorstep.

 

[Origami Unicorn]

Cant wait for your review Blade!

Got mine today and holy crap he's incredible. Hot Toys really have pushed themselves lately with the figures.
Paint up on the figure is top class, all the extras are awesome. Took this quick pic and he's now displayed behind glass cabinet with the others

I WANT MINE NOW!!!!!

 

[JehdinThwei]

I WANT MINE NOW!!!!!

Likewise. They say patience is a virtue, but I either want the Classic NOW or to be granted patience NOW!!

 

[REYALS1]

LOL... Good one Bill. My wife says I need to learn patience but the only problem with that is I've never had any when it comes to certain things (like waiting longer than necessary for kick arse PREDATOR merchandise).

 

[zuckuss77]

Funny you guys wrote that , i was reading that there in stock at sideshow so i paid off the flex pay yesterday so its shipped today!!!

 

[Folsomaticustom]

Final Flexpay payment is in January HURRY THE **** UP!!!!!!!!

 

[Blade3327]

Got a Quantum shipping notice from SSC today; scheduled delivery is Tuesday. I was hoping to have him before the end of winter break, but at least this'll make going back to school bearable.
