Samurai shouldn't be too far off and we may possibly see P2 late this year, maybe early next year. After that who knows.......

Yeah, sadly, I've decided to pass up on the Samurai. I had big plans for that one too.

Too much Avengers, Dark Knight, and Terminator goodness floating around.

My guess would be, if you're fine with the figure in the pictures, seeing it up close would only seal the deal. Prepare the space on your shelf.

Ive seen people trying to get $180-$200 for him on ebay but I dont think he is actually selling, and if he is its not very quickly.
Is the Samurai Pred just a random creation or is he from somthing that I have not seen yet? He seems so random to me. I like to show of my HT preds and be able to say "hes from this one", what would I say about this guy?
The active listings for Billy on ebay are higher than people are willing to pay for him to judge by the completed listings. Some of them sold for over 300 but I'd say those were total flukes for the sellers. Theres far more unsolds over the 300 mark. A matter of interest for me as I am trying to sell Billy on here.
For me the selling points of these older figures would be 1. sulpt 2. costume 3. body. The body is easily replaceable so hardly counts, Billy has a fairly non-discript camo outfit quite easy to bash so not much value there so really down to the headsculpt and Billys, while good does need a complete repaint to bring it up to scratch so honestly I can't see them ever making that much, max £150 inclusive and thats pushing it.
I've been watching ebay for months and months and he along with dutch and the AvP preds have been for sale from the same sellers for all that time, almost zero movement on these figures because of the high priceing.

He's a random creation.
I was just thinking about an epic fail for hot toys, there p2 sculpt in 1/4 would be unacceptable if it looked like the 1/6.Larger scale is easier but why do they think its okay to shell out their 1/6 p2 sculpt?
They cant make a 1/4 p2 looking like there 1/6 = epic fail

Honestly, I don't get all the bashing against a 'random' Predator.
Seriously, there are only two TRUE Predator movies: Predator & Predator 2.
AVP and AVP2 are plain bulls**t and I don't get why Predators from such movie should be regarded as 'real', same for Predators movie which is a pair of steps ahead than the AVP serie, but still something re-handed to fit into the usual ____ty sequel mechanics ("durr, there are Preds and Preds-on-roids!").
Just my opinion of course, but looking at the facts, this is a greatly sculpted piece, original and exotic, with good additional gadgets, great color and an incredibile base. The main concern should be the articulations, as someone said, there aren't pics in different poses. For sure has more sense than worrying how 'canon' it is.
