Hot Toys MMS233 -Predator 2 - 1/6th scale Elder Predator 2.0 Collectible Figure

[kabukiman50]

One of my scar dreads popped out but other than that no issues

I think elder 2.0 body is same as classic pred and shadow pred.

it's tsang, he cant really be bothered making new stuff. even the heads come from one basic mold. lolz

Those rubber dreads scare me, looks like you can really see the glue they are attached to in those pics, do preds have a huge deterioration problem?

the HT pred dreads are the only thing holding on with HT. knowing how they **** up rubber issues on other figures.lolz

New Hot Toys P1 : 90% of Elder's (Classic) body and armor + "new" head sculpt based on Elder's head.

you just reversed engineered the elder pred being a derivative from the original/p1 red.
knowing tsang's approach, that's tsang's recipe right there.lolz

I need some help :

Where can I get a faux (or real) leather leather scraps ? They must be very thin.

Being new to HT collecting I have a DX-13 with a DX-11 (hopefully) on the way and RoboCop on order, I've been hoping they'd re-do the Predator from the first (and best) film but having mulled it over, the MMS233 is for me by far the best representation of the creature I've ever seen. The detail and finish is simply astonishing and even though Predator 2 has it's fair share of faults there's something very alluring about the Elder Predator's look. Needles to say I'm looking to make this one my next acquisition and can't wait to have it in-hand.

Yeah, it's definitely the best Predator figure I own. If Hot Toys did revisit P1, however, I still don't think I'd be able to resist. As great as Elder is, P1 Predator is the most iconic look for the creature and if I could only have that or Elder I'd still have to go with P1.

I agree with you insomuch as the first film is a true classic and one of my favourite films ever and the creature from that film is the most recognisable and iconic Predator but there's no denying that the Elder has a certain cool factor that I just can't quite explain.

 

[kabukiman50]

Love this figure, just pulled it out last night and gave it a real look, this thing is incredible, the amount of detail is amazing,

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Great pic, kabukiman!

 

[The_Seeker]

Yeah, amazing pic Kabukiman. Keep em coming. As if I didn't want this figure enough already!

Just realised that Forbidden Planet (.co.uk) have the MMS233 due in imminently for £159.99 (+£7.50 shipping) which is a great price. They accept Paypal too so... Boom! Ordered! Can't wait to have it. They have the MMS238 due in on Dec 18th so that'll be next.

This or next week will have from my retailer here in Spain the Elder for 195€ (shipping included)or 243$. Pretty good deal considering its at $224.99 without shipping and customs in Sideshow.

What mods on him are you doing guys ???

 

[zuckuss77]

I'm happy for the guys that got this guy , I have feeling this predator will be hard to get later. It's just the best looking I have out of ten I have. And more than liking my last.

Elder and Scar is all you need for HT Predators.

For me Samurai is before Scar.

 

[zuckuss77]

For me Samurai is before Scar.

Yeah there's a lot of personal preference . I love the supers and classic , shadow is cool too

 

[edstuff]

Not a lot of love for the supers, but I still love my trio.

 

[koolop]

I need this guy in my collection but just bought Ancient, hoping this doesn't sell out anytime soon!

An updated P1 would top everything if done right. In a day and age of having to be selective with characters and lines P1 would be all that's needed to represent Predator (IMO).
