Hot Toys – MMS147 - Predators: 1/6th scale Tracker Predator Collectible Figure

[sprig0701]

Just go rob a liquor store and buy them all.

 

[Centurion]

I want just one.
Something tells me that besreker is more special due to two sculpts.

If you want just one, I say go for Tracker.

My fellow freaks are going to jump all over me for saying this but I think the Tracker figure has more character. More details.

Take a look at this picture:

His bio is battle damaged. Even if you haven't seen the movie, you can tell this guy has seen some action. He's not the pretty boy that Berserker is.

He's got predator mandibles hanging from his neck collar. That right there shows you he's got some b@ll$.

His left shoulder armor and loin cloth are different than Berserker (Falconer uses the same exact pieces as Berserker). This guy doesn't copy anyone.

His leg armor is by far the most intricate among the three Predators. Look closely. There's a lot of details going on there.

Berserker has the skull and vertebrae trophy for an accessory.
Tracker gets this as an accessory:

The details on this hound are amazing.
I know these are only proto pics, but we can still hope the production version turns out this way.

Also, the hound will come with a leash which you can have Tracker hold with one hand or both.

Lots more posing options with Tracker.
Lots more character and more details.

It's a tough decision. I know.
Hope I made it easier.

Good help, thanks.
Only think that pushes me the other way is the open head sculpt of berseker, but I think tracker has more pros right now.
First of all, I get two figures for almost the same price, plus the tracker does look cooler IMO. Red doesnt go that well with predators.

Plus, the timing is better actually for me. Next month I have 2 HT coming, so getting this too is too much.

I think I will get tracker one.

Thanks.

All trio will be closed to a grand in couple years or so. So try to save $200 to get tracker later and go get berserker now. But if u really have to choose maybe u go with berserker since it started all new predator body sculpt

 

[pepez]

Well after reading Cent's thought maybe u should go with berserker But tell u what it's no brainer decision the worst case whatever u pick will not be a wrong pick in term of money It may if u want to complete all three

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

Yeah, yeah, Tracker has different armor, the dog, the Pred mandible trophies, etc. BUT Mr. Black has the most unique skin coloring, he's the clan leader. the jaw-bone on his Bio cancels out Trackers Pred mandibles. He also has damage on his Bio.
I would go with Mr. Black. Plus, he's cheaper.

 

[Marcus Wright]

Ok, one last question.

I saw Predators movie recently, (by the way, I quiet enjoyed it) but didnt pay attention to their differrances.
Could anyone explain who the berseker is in the movie as compared to tracker (except that it has dog and hunts, I saw that part).
I just want to know who is more important and memorable character in a way.

Also, which one is the predator that fights for humans at the end?

Also, so predator figures appreciate that much in value in a couple of years? Wow.

Berserker was probably the leader of the pack even though they never really showed a direct command structure. He was the last one that fought at the end of the movie.

Was he the one who was on the humans side or the bad guy?

 

[hairlesswookiee]

He was the bad dude that looked freaking crazy when he took his mask off.

Woo hoo!!!
If HT can get the production version as close as possible to their prototype, we will all be in for a treat.

Great choice!

I know. The prototype does look to good to be true though.
Seems like a movie still from a picture.

Also, from pictures it seems it comes with a cool stand too. Am I right?

Keep in mind, what I described above is purely comparing the 'figures' with each other, not how the two compare in the movie.

Honestly, you will be very happy with either. Obviously, no one has Tracker yet, but there's no reason to believe that Hot Toys would make this figure with less quality than the previous two.

Here is a picture of the accessories as we know it today:

In this pictures I see a differrent, cooler base.

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

Here is Falconer fighting Hanzo, the Yakusa Samurai dude:

He's most famous for his Bio mask and Falcon glove...

Here is Mr. Black, the clan leader:

Most famous for his skin colors, and... Idunno.. Red tipped Predlocks?

And here is Tracker:

Most famous for his armor, and hounds..

Oh, can't forget Classic:

Mr. Black, Falconer, and Tracker are the three bad "Super" Predators in the movie. They're supposed to be a different species of Predator that is larger and stronger than the others. They hunt the smaller species.

Classic is basically a copy of the FIRST Predator. He is NOT the same Predator though, they just look similar. He gets captured by the three Super Predators in the movie, and trys to help Royce (Adrien Brody) get back to Earth before being defeated by Mr. Black, the clan leader of the three Super Predators.

Hope this helps Marcus Wright

 

[Marcus Wright]

Very nice job Lar'ja Thwei of explaining each type of predator to me.

They all look badass.

Berseker looks the creepeast though, while the tracker looks the bulkiest, biggest.

What about the Gurdian? He is the one who is classic type and fights on humans side? Poor one, I almost cried when he called killed.

 

[a-dev]

Oh, can't forget Classic:

Almost can. It was such a crappy role in the film and he got owned so easily. The main reason most people care for a figure of him is the possibility of making him the P1.

 

[Rotfish]

In this pictures I see a differrent, cooler base.

That's part of the custom rock display HT used for shooting photos of all three Preds together. It's not an actual base by any means, so we'll be getting the standard nameplate version.




On an unrelated note, I'm actually more a fan of the HT Tracker and Falconer than I am of Berserker. The skin colors on Mr. Black look great in the film for sure, but on the final figure... the yellow between the scales competes with them, especially when you're looking at him from a distance. Put just a couple feet between yourself and the piece, and his skin will look more like a random, uncertain mesh of colors. Falconer and Tracker, in comparison, have more definite skin tones. While it's not as creative an idea as multicolored scales, it looks miles better IMHO. And hey, they're still unique with respect to the original Pred skins (greenish tones that actually work well).

That's not Guardian predator. Guardian predator is from Predator 2 line. The one released last July or something. The one strung to the totem is classic predator. We are estimating he'll be released quiet soon.

I agree u can't compare the actual figure with the movie. Because it's really different. I personally like all three and maybe berserker the most because the badass open mandible face

BUT if u really want the iconic character u must go with Berserker Predator like p1 in predator, p2 in predator 2, scar pred in AVP, wolf pred in AVP-R, and Berserker in Predators.

I relate iconic character with the one do the final battle not the coolest looking one.

Hope that helps. Try ur best to get all 4(classic)
