Hot Toys Classic Predator in the works?

[thenammagazine]

well so far, the Serker and Falconer arent accurate at all, so i would assume the classic wont be accurate either. Its been a good thing so far, but HT better knock it out of the park, cause they will be competing with the ... 1/4 Neca P1.

 

[greygoose]

Want pictures now ><

Agreed.

 

[prefused]

It would be a shame if Hot Toys didn't include the two bandoleers and P1 mask for Classic, especially if the sculpt is good.

I know I can use my P1 bandoleers on a potential Classic figure but the mask is not the best and may not even fit the new head sculpt.

i could see SSC making an exclusive with a non-battle damaged mask. but again, i kinda doubt HT has any intention of this figure being a replacement/upgrade for the P1. we'll have to wait and see when new pics are out. it would take a huge improvement (and probably a different sculptor) for me to care about getting this since i already have the P1. i hope i'm wrong and HT nails this one though.

I'm optimistic that the new Predator body will be a big improvement. The head sculpt is the thing that matters most to me.

I have zero faith in HT delivering any accurate preds, so I'm not holding my breath over this one.
Looking forward to seeing pics though, no matter how it turns out, the amount of _____ing and whining (deserved or undeserved) will be monumental.

 

[Empir3]

I think we can all agree more preds is always a good thing

 

[Calcifer]

Ever notice that "Predator" sound's like "Pre-order" ? subliminal messages people!

I hope Classic does get a new body and head. The Head of P1 was good but the dreads were not. Also the bio was not along with he body. It all seemed off. An OK figure but so much more could of been done.

And i do kind of hope to use Classic as a P1 substitute and "upgrade" if it comes up trumps.

I feel kind of spoiled having seeing Tracker come with a Hound and now i want Classic to have the ritual totem thingy... because its something i would actually use

PROOF!

幸好厂商已表示《Predators》「埋斋」之作原祖血兽会补送大量配件，拥趸们惟有暂时忍 耐

Chinese to English translation (Via Google Translator)


Model makers have said "Predators" "Buried vegetarian " for the original ancestors of the animal will make to send a large number of blood components, fans are only a temporary patient



Wait a minute...

I can't wait for the "Buried Vegetarian" Predator!!!

If this is so then this is really cool news. I see a epic sell off of P1 figures soon.

What does it mean?

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

So we're getting a vegetarian's corpse?...

 

[toylion]

Maybe meant Ancestors were Gardeners

 

[Kiva]

The classic skull was buried in the vegetation ... so you could put 2 + 2

Huh?

 

[vareika]

If HT really releases a classic I'd be all over it. Despite having spent a considerable amount for a HT P1 a few months ago, I'd still be super syched! I like my anorexic P1 - he looks fine together with his anorexic P2 buddy hehe...no regrets there at all.

I don't think google translator did it right, sometimes, it's a direct translation of each character and you end up reading phrases instead of what it's trying to say. What it says is

"The company (or owner) has announced that they will present you with a huge accessory (or item) that's related to the ancestors of the creature (possible reference to P1) that's soon to come, just be patient"

The best way I can explain it in English hope this helps, so maybe it's a battle damaged P1 mask? or maybe they did try to mean figure, but none the less, SOMETHING IS COMING!!!!

The best way I can explain it, hope this helps and yes, it says ACCESSORY and not figure, so maybe it's a battle damaged P1 mask? or maybe they did try to mean figure, but none the less, SOMETHING IS COMING!!!!

Huge accessory? Could it be a package of Hounds for Tracker?

Anything's possible, it doesn't really mention anything else about what it is, they worded so weird that I had a few people look at it and that was the best translation we can come up with.

Maybe it's intentional. I hope it's Classic though, I think the Hound that comes with Tracker is enough, and I really want Classic.
