the figure looks like cheap mcfarlane scar toy to me.
but it could be just a cheap anderson overall design, not lame tsang hands (if one can call those meat pieces stuck to his shoulders hands).
 
Guys, genuine question here. Not stomping on anyone's tastes or anything...but why is there so much interest towards this line of predator figs? Wasn't the movie generally disliked by many if not all? I saw it, and I think the only pred worth my time would be scar because he did the most damage and didn't go out like a punk like the others did.

The only preds I have are berserker, falconer, still gotta pick up tracker one day...but at least the movie was a direct follow up to the OG predator and was pretty good.

I'm just curious is all. I do have to admit the preds do look cool with their armor and stuff...but arent preds very tribalistic in spite of their advanced knowledge with technology.

I think the only thing holding me back from being super stoked about this line is the fact that they are from, what I consider an abomination to the predator mythos and universe.

Drop the knowledge on me guys.
The celtic and chopper preds got killed waaaay to early, but didnt go out like punks imo, chopper was stabbed through the back while he was preoccupied about to kill a human, and celtic smashed the alien that killed his brother head first into a pillar and threw him across the room, the only reason he died was because the net broke, these three were young and not as experianced maybe, but still cool characters, i like them for what i think they could have been, not neccessarily what they were in the film. I'm really surprised that you dont like the avp preds, but u like the predators preds, they went out like punks as you would say and they were supposed to be SUPER PREDATORS :rotfl I'm sorry but i always hated the design of those super preds and they definately didnt live up to their name, dont get me wrong i think the movie does a good job of being predator 2.0 and i like the introduction of bad blood preds but i think predator 2 and the avp movies are why there is a predator universe not to leave out the awesome first one which of course started it all, but the older movies gave some elements to build a universe from.

Looks awesome. I want to reach into the picture and futz the dreads though. Or put it on a diorama base in the ninja combi-stick pose. Looking forward to seeing the silver visor on the final product.
 
Predators hunt aliens of one form or another and I love the idea of a clan that hunts one of the deadliest species out there (aliens), that's why I love the avp predators and no matter how bad elements of those movies are they will still be awesome because of that, and the avp r basically made a better broken tusk character come to life on the big screen, even if it was in a bad movie and u couldn't really see much.

:exactly: looks really good, the visor is the main thing i personally think they need to fix everything else looks great and you can always adjust the dreads to look better.
 
Ok what. (Come on, someone had to catch up to this)

I am not sure what I missed. I was staying that what you see on screen is not what the stuntmen had on.

I have a hero Mr. Black mask behind me. This is one of the masks that was used the around the middle of the movie. It's smaller then that it looks like on screen. The same goes with some of the others I have. They CGI them to look more then what they are. I also have a broken mask from the 1st movie (really bad but real) its bigger as there was no CGI in that movie. The Stuntman was also a big guy.

To me and yes I only own one of these (Shadow) I am happy. The hair long or short I don't really care. I also don't care about the bands in the hair also. What I do care is they keep getting killed by Humans! The Alien kill more Humans then they do (but I like the Predators better).
 
The unmasked head looks amazing, better then in the movie imo. The only other thing they should fix besides the visor is the open mandibles for the roaring pose have to have an open lower jaw to look right:slap. As it is now i would never use them cuz it just looks wrong. I will probly display mine with the mask on anyways, but they should fix that so the option is there. I doubt they will tho :thwak

God he looks awesome in front of that background with the predator statues on either side. So excited for this one :blissy

You're all mixed up guy. The 2 super preds from Predators (Tracker and Falconer) died faster than the 2 AVP Preds (Chopper and Celtic). It sounds like you haven't read a single predator comic ever let alone some of the latest AVP comics but if you did you might understand and accept different predator tribes and how they look, what weapons and techs they use rather than simply relying on the few movies that have been made. If you continue basing your opinion on feature films you'll probably never see an AVP film done right. AVP was as close as they've come and I accepted that movie and enjoyed it. The plot sucked, but everything else was okay. I'm not going to argue a single Pred taking on an alien queen! As for AVPr again the plot was horrible and the director sucked but Wolf was badass.

Btw :lecture Predators sucked! Easily the worst film of them all. Personally I even like AVPr better than Predators. If any of these films is an abomination it's that one! :)
 
I can't wait for Celtic. I love those extra blades that he has attached to both gauntlets, and I think his unique helmet will remove that element of looking like a rehashed classic pred. I hope they try to give chopper and Celtic unique faces under there masks, but above all I really hope they don't do what they did with tracker and falconer. Either way I'm certain I will probably pick up the whole avp tribe.
