Re: NECA 1/4 Predator

NECA are saying that the 1/4 ships in April and will be in stores for May. Series 3 will hopefully be June and Series 4 September.

Re: NECA 1/4 Predator

Huh. I assumed series 3 of the small figures would come out before the 1/4 figures.

Re: NECA 1/4 Predator

Yeah I thought that too. Still, the thought of having the 1/4 within the next two months

Does forbidden planet get their stock in earlier or layer though?

I was thinking that too. Got them on PO on their website. Will the FB warehouse get their stock in first then distribute to their stores? Figures usually appear at my local FB about 1-2 months after the US gets them.

Re: NECA 1/4 Predator

Well y'know what who knows? Sometimes the UK inexplicably gets things before the US, but usually not.

Re: NECA 1/4 Predator

but usually not.

Mostly this

Cheers.

WTF?
Did they raise their preorder price?

Maybe they are trying to get you to cancel your preorder because it was priced less than what they are wanting to charge for it 'now'.

It's shady, but I've heard of places doing worse.

Re: NECA 1/4 Predator

Forbidden planet upped their price by £20. I PO after the price increase but I'm guessing others would have had their PO price upped.

Re: NECA 1/4 Predator

well thats bs,
I mean, I don't know, I mean, why charge a price to just raise it, kinda doesn't make sense to me but I really don't know about it much,

so is Every store doing this? is ToysRus going to do that I wonder???


Wait so, How much are they now at Forbidden Planet?

They most likely saw the potential this figure could (hopefully will) have...

Re: NECA 1/4 Predator

I have all 3 pre-ordered from Bigbadtoystore. I will probably detach the heads and sell 2 headless.

Hopefully people are going to buy the 2 headless bodies. One body with three heads would be ideal for space issues.

Re: NECA 1/4 Predator

I can only hope someone will buy 2 bodys (everything minus heads) from me.

I thought about turning one into a elder.. 1/4 scale elder from the end of p2. that would be epic... The elder and the pred1/classic have the same exact armor. Differnt color.. head resculpt + beads n gun.

We will see...

A custom battle damaged body would be a great idea
