NECA 1/4 scale predator

Re: NECA 1/4 Predator

I'm only going to have enough money for one, so I'll probably go with the closed mouth version. I think he looks the best.

Does anyone know if this will be in stores anywhere?...Toys R Us maybe? If i'm paying $80+ dollars for something, I definitely want to check the paint job in person.

Re: NECA 1/4 Predator

Have you ordered the set of three, yet? HIGHLY RECOMMEND DOING IT. Buying multiple 7" figures is one thing, but this is a landmark release for NECA. Hell, for Predator figures in general.

Must I break out the Arnold to convince you?

I order set of three, since the open mouth is sold out @ BBTS. Then went to check it out few weeks back the open mouth was available then order it plus the one he wear mask on and i canceled the set of three now i regret it should keep the set of three

that's a good question but no one knows, I did preorder them but i am hoping and praying that the paint job is good,
I mean the pictures we have seen so far look amazing, but, who knows, I think this is a make or break point for Neca, if the paint job is great, is going to surprise a lot of people and make collectors happy, if the paint job sucks they are going to turn us away, I could see the anger and hate from people that preorder if it comes out bad. Like that horrible V for vendetta statue they made a few years back, that looked awful,

I hope we get pictures and some confirmation on the quality before it's release.

yeah, totally, Well, I don't think I'll cancel the preorders I mean, the sculpt looks pretty amazing, they would have to look hideous for me to cancel.
it will really suck if the paint jobs look bad, that was the reason I did not buy the berserker predator, but, at the same time, this predator looks a thousand times better than the Spawn predator did, I guess what I am trying to say is that, I am praying for a good figure, but I think our hopes will be met

I too think that the closed mouth looks best. I think I've always thought that...ever since he first took off his mask for Arnold, I always liked that first shot.
Not sure about finding this @ retail. It would be sweet to pic over any paint issues, but I hope that there aren't any. I think that the sculpt is sooo good, that even if the paint has any issues, it is still worth the price. I'm always touching stuff up anyway.

Re: NECA 1/4 Predator

Just bought the last open mouth from BBTS & 2 closed mouth. Wish I got the 3 pack though when it was first up for preorder.

there are going to be 5000 each of these, bbts won't get but a few of these at a time as all other online stores, i don't think neca will be able to release all 15000 at one time,so these will ship in runs, 1st run,2nd run and so on, so you will be able to get as many as you need, i would say. so don't be worried.

I would like the mask version but I'm not going the eBay route. They are asking minimum of $150 each for these.

Yeah, and what's crazy is the closed mouth version is 10 bucks cheaper (At Big Bad Toy Store) than the other two? Which is fine by me.

I've emailed Neca CS twice now asking if these would be in stores, and still no reply. Can anyone who has a twitter acount ask Neca?

I was going to preorder from CSC, well me and my friends, but, we would have to use Paypal to preorder, and, still two months to go, I just waited for BBTS to get some cancellations, I mean, you could use your card for CSC, but, is safer with paypal, CSC is even 10 bucks cheaper than BBTS, but im just going to wait

they are 10 bucks cheaper, and still have not sell out yet, this whole time the other two and the set of 3 sold out, but close mouth never did, I think if you want the close mouth you could get him even later

Still, I'd preorder right this second if I found out these weren't going to be available in stores.
