They'd better be fixing the damn thing.

 

[RIDDICK]

Yea I think the figure looks awesome and accurate, I mean I haven't froze Predator 2 on blue ray and counted city hunter's butt hairs to compare or anything. My bad. I saw the Feb 13 release date on the sideshow site.

Then I'd be happy to get it

I'd agree that this figure is accurate in a lot more areas than the original Pred 2, and the headsculpt really is my only beef with this thing. Too bad, as it's the most important part to get right too.

And I think you're dumb and ugly.

As you can see ppl may say whatever they want but it can not have any relation to the facts. In this thread (and on HT FB page) most of the arguments were supported by staff and quotes from available free-for-all sources so inaccuracy of this figure is a proven fact that you can't challenge without giving counter-evidence.

Nobody says that the figure looks bad but it deff doesn't needs any admiration and protection from criticism.
You like it - you buy it.

it's still 1000x better than the old p2 pred. the new body alone makes the old bobblehead skinny p2 pred look like arse.

You don't have to sit down and compare anything really. If you're familiar with the character, you will automatically notice that something is really off with his face/head.

The problem is that since it's not human, it's more difficult for people to see the inaccuracies. That's where it hurts the die-hard fans who are very familiar with the creature's appearance.

The figure looks nice, but it isn't accurate where it needs to be. And Hot Toys is the company that sells the most accurate high-end collectible human figures out there..so I expect that same treatment with the Predators.

I particularly like this post, well said.

Thank the gods this got pushed back. I've been waiting for one of the four things I have on order due in December to be delayed. Here's hoping for more.

I just hope it's been pushed back for good reason. You know, like, improving on the sculpt.

 

[Centurion]

Well, yeah, that goes without saying...

You would think.
Apparently some here are just fine with the current representation of P2.

 

[greygoose]

You'd hope so but I think it might be a case of them taking on too many figures (again). The Avengers and Batman figures are bound to be delayed too.

Very sensible post LT. You're growing wiser as you grow up.

He's more mature since last year... but still afraid of Wendigos.

It was an alien.

better that HT makes a slightly inaccurate p2 then not making one at all.
