Hot Toys Predator, Predator 2, Predators, AvP, AvP:R 1/6 + 1/4 scale announcement

Die castings would be cheaper than plastic.

I think we all expect the 1/6 figures not to be accurate but to shed out a load of cash on a 1/4 figure it best be accurate.

So why buy them and talk about them on this forum??

Yyyep, a beauty of a piece but its a PF. Outside my normal collecting habit and to be avoided, its bad enough I'm even going into 1/4 scale. I have to at least stick to poseable figures.

I watched Predator 2 last night so have a question, have all the Predators from Predator 2 been released already or just a few? After searching through the forums I can see a BD, Guardian, Elder and presumably the main Predator from the film (oh and the newly released Shadow)

Would someone be interested in compiling a list of all of the releases so far?

Predator 2
Predator 2 battle damaged
Predator 2 Elder ( greyback )
Predator 2 Lost ( borg, but its a bit of a kitbash as it comes with a boar mask and hippies staff)
Predator 2 guardian ( gort )
Predator 2 Shadow ( snake )

I hope the new P2 includes both of these. Tricky though maybe...

Just because we want accurate figures doesn't mean we can't buy these ones. These are the only high-end 1/6 Predator figures on the market..we have nothing else to choose from.

As I have grown older, I really just want accurate figures. I'm not asking for an exact, breathing replica..I just want the best they can do. And they're not doing the best they can with the Predators.

I've sold off all 5 of my HT Preds over 2011 and won't be buying anymore unless they decide to sculpt the faces accurately..and I pray they will on all of their next releases, especially the 1/4s...

You could never have a regular and BD in 1 figure though. They could give us a regular figure with an EX with the swap out stump arm but it wouldnt have blood spattered all down its chest and whatnot so it would be pretty pointless unless somebody bought 2 of the toy and customised one.

but having said that we could get a set of mandibles with blood on also. It would still be missing alot but its a start

I'd settle for a cool diorama base instead. They need to get away from the standard bases anyway, especially for the Preds as they are too big for them. You end up having expensive looking figures on a cheap ass base.

There's so many ways P2 could go. There's no way we'll get all his weapons and accessories in one box.

True but then again T-1000 rings a bell...

I watched Predator 2 yesterday and I very much agree with this

 

[Kiva]

I know what i want for P2. And its a roof ledge diorama base and a bolt of lightning (Like iron man 2.0 fire) to attach to the combi stick to simulate the iconic scene.

 

[Reinhardt]

Apologies if this has been discussed, but do we know if they are re-visiting the Predator from Predator 1 in 1/6th scale, or if the Classic Predator covers that?

 

[Kiva]

People assume they will revisit a 1:6 P1. I however think assuming they will make one is a very dangerous thing to do. Classic is a brilliant toy and a great place holder for somebody who does not have a P1 but would like one. And also Dutch at the moment is the only thing to be mentioned from the "Predator" movie.
