Thanks for the response! As we all know, Hot Toys is famous for revisiting. Looks like they are jumping on the Reboot bandwagon that Hollywood is on.

One of the problems with collecting the hot toys figures is that they just get better and better. this could be an issue with the new 1/4 scale line as they haven't yet produced figures in this scale, the first ones they make may not be as good as those further into the line while they work out any kinks particularly with articulation, scultping and the new die cast accessories.

Dutch is planned for 1/4 too. Classic is the closest thing you will get from Hot Toys in 1/6 scale for awhile.
This is my concern with the first 1/4 releases too.

Such exiting news!! can't wait
True. Makes you wonder if you should skip the first few figures at that scale - they'll be remade anyway!

In that case, we may aswell not buy any and just keep on waiting for the remakes of the remakes.

And it'll be a wonderful guessing game. Who can predict which will be the last one? Will it be the 2.0? The 3.0? The 3.5?
it'l be the DX
2.0? 3.0? 3.5?
I'm interested only the final definitive version remember.

With the amount of figures being pumped out right now the revolving door is going to be in full swing. Look at the amount of P1's up for sale now.

This really is the era of the remake/reboot/reimagining!

I think it's safe to say that if you don't want to get hurt, don't buy any HT figures priced above their pre-order price. Most likely they will be relaunched or remade with improvements in the future anyway. You won't be missing anything.
I had a thought. Only one of the predators from predators took off his bio. And since we only actually saw one face, HT only made berserker with the removeable bio. The same thing was true in AVP but we got all 3 (with the same head) for some reason. So does that mean that the newer AVP re-releases will only have scar with the removeable bio. I really hope not but I'm worried this might be a possibility.
Good point, thats possible.

I hadn't thought about that... and you're right... it's very possible it will be that way
.
I'm only interested in displaying my preds as we saw them in the film so personally I wouldn't care.

It's called the "Hot Toys Renaissance". They aren't going to be releasing updated versions of all the figures they've made in the past, just the ones that are in high demand that scalpers and counterfeiters' are trying to make exorbitant profits from...
