The figure is looking amazing! Can't wait to pick him up!

Does anyone know if Hot Toys have actually confirmed they're doing another Jungle Hunter or is it just speculation because I'd love to get one!

BTW this is my first post after creeping the forums for a while and it seems like a great community to be involved in!
 
Can someone explain to me is there any difference in armour of Elder and Classic? They seem the same.

Predator 2 Elder has two straps that connect his codpiece to his thigh armor pieces. There is no cable connecting the Elder Predator's chest armor to the armor on his left shoulder. His right gauntlet is essentially the same as the original Predator's but uses a City Hunter style blade housing. The left gauntlet is also essentially the same as the original Predator's but is missing the computer interface/self destruct and has a ribbed piece that is the same as on the City Hunter's gauntlet. Although Hot Toys won't paint it this way for some mind boggling reason, the Elder's armor is also a much darker color (like gunmetal) than the OG Predator's armor. Also, the OG Pred wears sandles, but the Elder is barefoot; and the Elder also has a laser sight mounted directly on top of his plasma caster since he doesn't wear a helmet.

Thanks for clarification. Didn't know I needed elder until now :gah:
 
Looks similar to me,if you gotta say what's different the official apparently have more detail paint then final goods.
 
In their infinite wisdom, Hot Toys repainted the pokey quills blue like they were on the first prototype but still painted the molded quills a bone color like they were on the revised proto to make sure that any illusion was shattered :slap
Kind of a small difference but striking at the same time.
 
Yes that is stupid from HT. :-(

@Nodika, the shape of the forehead looks a little bit different. HT make this to long.

To bad that HT dont change the "facehugger" bag and the wrong color of armor and skin.

Sure this is HT best Predator, but it could be better, it could the best Elder Predator on the market.
 
What in the world happened its way off don't look like either version not liking it right now hopefully better in hand

Yeah its actually slightly different than the revised proto. The mandibles are different, the crown is different.
The hair is too blue, it should be more a faded bluish grey. There is also that chipped tooth issue, why does he have a chipped tooth?
 
You probably don't then. Anything I've bought in the past that I ''didn't know I needed'' I ultimately ended up selling.

Nothing truer than this. Wasn't this a grail ages ago with sky high ebay prices? The accessories appear very limited this time around. Is this expected for this release?
