I'm sure they don't mean anything. They display old releases at these Japan showcases all the time. 9 times out of 10, they don't end up meaning anything. (BTTF)

We need a closer photo to see what it writes on those nameplates/ figure descriptions. It could be place holders

Actually you’re right. The cards on the bottom with the red on it all write sold out

I’m thinking about doing a PO on that too. I just don’t like how bright the red is. I think I preferred the original armour colours on the first Samurai Predator but I do definitely like the colour of the actual Predator and his eyes and dreads

It's Awesome to see Rain there I hope that an Andy follows her in time, and its nice to see that the JH predator is still coming around but he looks the exact same so im really hoping hes just a place holder for the moment.

A higher quality copy of the collection photo:
If a figure needed the larger diamond base with lots of stuff on it, it is this. That small brown pile of dirt just isn't cutting it.
Also, gimme a City Hunter 2.0 with Eastern building dio base.

I really want to know what it says on the black card for the Jungle Hunter 2.0

Such a shame that the 2.0’s aren’t happening on the back row. Would have literally put a PO on every single one of them the day it came out 
Probably filling out the display. Might be announcing a 2.0 like they did with the BD T-800.

You know what’s strange. They didn’t showcase the Feral Predator 
I totally forgot that even went to preorder stage. Just had a quick look at the thread. It looks good for what it is.You know what’s strange. They didn’t showcase the Feral Predator

The City Hunter is my favorite Predator. I’m hoping they do a 2.0.

The only Hot Toys Predator I got was the 'Classic' from Predators.
With Hot Toys getting back into the Alien franchise with Romulus it piqued my interest in Predator figures again. Over the last few days I rewatched all the Predator and AVP movies from Predator to Prey, and was reminded that Predators don't yet exist in Alien canon (though Aliens exist in Predator canon).
I was also reminded how cheesy much of the Predator franchise was until we got to Prey, and by contrast how much classier the canon Alien franchise has been (barring Resurrection, though it's still a fun film).
I still like Predators, so if HT are going to release upgraded versions I think I'm in, and since in my mind they're inseparable from the Alien universe I'll just have to use my head canon.

definitely need to drop all these figures ASAP because I miss watching those films so much

The Romulus Xenomorph will be my first alien for the same reason: I didn't trust the longevity of the old versions.
I regret not getting some of the Predators, though maybe it's just as well if HT actually are going to give us new ones. They made a lot though, so there's little chance (i.e. practically zero) they'll re-do every one.
I prefer Predators to be more vanilla and classic in appearance, so the new Samurai version doesn't grab me. While I consider Prey to be the worthiest in the series, the Predator himself was the least appealing of all, so I didn't pre-order him either. (If only someone would make Naru because she'd go into my western collection).
Why do they display the old figures? I already have all the Predator Hot toys 2.0, it's a false hope for non-owners and a heart attack for me. Anyway, disappointed with the Jungle Hunter once again, disappointed not to see Dutch 2.0 and as said above weird not to see Feral Predator. Let's be patient, my friends.

They often do it at shows to show examples of their history of making figures, and flesh out displays where there isn't much new to show off.
