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

[greygoose]

It's funny that people still call P1 the original. Unless you get the conversion kit to add to Classic the only true P1 available is the original. Luckily I have both so was able to move the accessories over to Classic so he is almost a P1. There's no way I'd be calling Classic P1 though if he was the only Predator figure I owned.

Yeah, my Classic is staying Classic. I'm using the BD helmet and proud of it. Mostly because I'm planning to grab the 1/4 P1 and would rather not have two figures of the same character in my collection.

Once I hopefully get the 1/4 P1 I'll be converting mine back to Classic.

Likewise me wanting the mask to be perfect on the new P2, I realy really hope the closed mandible sculpt is better on the 1/4 P1. We need that rounded more wider look.

Yea 1/4 original predator is most likely to be announced soon and earlier than the others. I really think they should make a 1/6 original predator remake

I've decided I will get the original, unless you vets can prove me wrong

Good choice in my opinion! And if you don't like the bio mask he comes with you can always buy one from our fellow freak taylerdurdem, who does more accurate bios for these figures:

I'm scared once I get the classic predator, I will forever regret to buying the original.
I've been chasing the original predator for two years.

Original with some work on it looks AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAwesome.
However if you don't like custom figs den better wait for official reissue.
And don't listen to anybody who sayin that this fig sux or something like dat

You don't need to buy P1 brand new, you will save a lot by buying it used in mint condition, MIB. These are figures that are not played with by children, most people keep them mint and are extremely careful, so the used option is always good . But always check the auction to see if it is really mint, ofcourse.

So, I'd suggest a P1 in MIB condition, complete with box.

EDIT: BTW, the P1 box is so amazing you should never buy it with out it!

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Wait for the new original one from Hot Toys of course.

 

[nekromantik]

I just want a P2 Elder re release!!

 

[heon123]

Yea there's a p1 that says mib

 

[capellamusic]

It doesn't need to say MIB, many people don't use those abbreviations, just check all the P1 listings and see the description. Are you from Europe? If you are, this might be a good one:

P1 in France MIB

Check with the worldwide option, in order of price + postage, and removing the predators you're not searching with "-berserker -shadow" etc, like this:

P1 search

 

[capellamusic]

Anyway, if you check the one from France you should ask the seller if the box still has the plastic cover as it isn't in the photo, and that is a major part of the awesomeness of the box because it simulates the camoflage effect on the movie.

Hmm i live in australia so this adds a more complexity. There is one auctioning for 290$ and there is 9 minutes left. It is not mint, used though only for a limited time. To late thats gone, plus im a bit skeptical about buying from international buyers

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Seriosuly though, why buy one now?

HT new one is just round the corner.

This.

Even if it's 2, 3, or more years away, what's the rush?!

What do you thinks better, classic or original.
