[quote name='A Hunter's Moon' post='224546' date='Jul 31 2010, 05:24 PM']Don't know if it's been mentioned but Neca has now said that they are aware of the bad paints on Beserker. They're in talks with the factory and that his paints will be better for series two. Does that mean we'll be seeing a variant for series two? I dunno.[/quote]
Heeeeeeeeeere we go. Another damned variant for the list. May not be series two, but....

I completely missed the pic that was posted but something was said about the Falconer in the next line lighting up. It was also mentioned that he's the only one to do so. I'm thinking his tri-laser or robotic falcon light up. Which is at least a welcome bonus to a variant.


However, neca knows how to drive a line straight into the ground with variant figures. See the T-2 line for proof. lol


What sucks is a lack of human figures but they mentioned a few months back that they wouldn't be doing any.

I just placed my order with TRU. 2 of each. And free shipping! You can't beat that! My local Toys R Us told me they wouldn't be carrying them so I was pretty much forced to place an oder online. It's cool that I got free shipping. Just hoping everything arrives in good condition!

 

[YautjaHunter]

damn so I will be getting 2 open mouth berserker so I can swap the body and use it to my masked berserker... they should have thought about that in the 1st place...

damn a light up variant for falconer?that was cool! but damn that's a good strategy so here are the variants just like wolf!

Where in the world did you hear that they'd be doing a 'light up' figure?

That hasn't been mentioned anywhere.

I just got home from Toys R Us, they had 1 classic, 2 falconer, and 2 berzerker figures. I picked up one of each, not bad. Cant wait for series 2

 

[MasterSafara]

Anyone know of any sneak peaks at series 2?

I wanna see what the Tracker will look like...

pages 15-16 bro, tracker and dog pics

Tracker looks pretty cool. I think his boots were dark brown though. They definately weren't green. That's going to need some repaint work. So are the Pred Hounds going to be sold individually? If so, I think I'll buy about 3-4 of them.

Well... from the orders I have placed with them in the past... if you have extras, save them for the display of un-opened figures on your wall, because I don't think TrUs is too worried about the "collector mentality" some of us have.

 

[YautjaHunter]

me too will get 3 of the hounds and it will be good to have them with tracker pred...

In my opinion the armor in his legs are very strange... looks like a tortoiseshell or something like it

Now take a look at this Tracker by Sideshow. His legs are much more well designed here:

But the boots are still green

Yeah if it any of them do arrive damaged at all I will be sending them back for a refund. Regardless of what the toy companies think we use them for the fact is we're paying for items to be delivered in good condition. Anything damaged is simply unacceptable. I'll give them a try though. The most important thing is that they are properly packaged with cushioning on all four sides of the contents.

Like I said... "from the orders I have placed with them...".

I'm buying 5 or 6 of them for my Tracker figure. They look lethal.

They said it on their twitter a week or so ago. This may be in relation to a 12icnh figure. I dunno. Looking for the post now.

Just got my Neca ‘Predators’ “ Classic” in the mail. My masked Neca wolf says that he’s the ugliest thing he’s ever seen and that if I put him on the computer desk anywhere near him, he’s going to kick his ass. Lol.
Seriously, I’m not overly pleased with the classic, but he is ‘acceptabe.’ His paint up has a glossy quality to it, but I knew there were issues with the paint up going into this. On the up side, The leg articulation is awesome; I love how you are able to position them. He’s a nice solid figure, stands well on his own. The armor sculpt is great. The face isn't bad either..he's a keeper. I just need to keep him away from wolf.

I will be stopping by my local TOYS "R" US store the 20-22nd weekend this month and seeing if whether or not they have these in stock.
