I'm buying Masked versions only, so far have P1, City Hunter and Warrior, i know Guardian is next, but it looks like the City Hunter and Warrior with a different paint job and mask..
only interested in the 1/4 stuff so the more the better!

Honestly I can't see too much, but maybe you are right. But if it is true why didn't they make this change at the City Hunter? If they will rerelease him with an improved netting I will be pissed...
Wolf is a must and also the Predators preds are welcome too. But don't forget the Elder predator!

Neca change Things all time.
For Example from Series 1 to series 2 the Skin Plastic by the Rocky licence.
The Netting on the 1/4th Predators are a big Problem, it looks not good and its not movie accurate. I heard that Randy Falk would like change the netting.
Its very bad for this People thay buy the previous Figures, but good vor future Figures like a closed mouth City Hunter, Elder, etc.
But for Scar and Wolf neca must the Netting change too.
It would bee cool if Neca change the forearm to make an open Arm computer panel.
On this picture I think the Guardian have the more accurate Paintjob than City Hunter.

Well we will see. I would like a change with the future figures like Wolf but yeah, it they rerelease the City Hunter with the Mask it will suck. At least for me since I bought it already. Oh well. Anyway the netting IMO isn't that bad but it certanly could be better and more accurate.

Yes we will se, I hope they changed it.
For me the netting is the biggest problem, after the paintjob.
And ists really hard to fixed this.
Apart from this, neca could make the 1/4 figures whit a little bit more accessories(human skull with spine and a closed spear).

I was in Dublin yesterday hoping to see the City Hunter 1:4 at forbidden planet but to no avail.

Wish they'd release more then 2 at a time.

Kill or be Killed
Production on these guys is probably to expensive for them to put out more than 2 at a time. If they dont sell NECA loses out and more or less probably doesnt continue the line. Plus its all about marketing and what not. You cant release 10 giant preds when say only 3 of the preds are on peoples radars. The rest turn to shelf warmers and retailers and NECA lose. Just my guess, I could be totally wrong about this.

Have my 1/4 City Hunter but I realize I just want the unmasked one, I wanna sell mine but if I sell it on Amazon I won't even get what I paid for it.
I guess I will just have to wait and hope that I can at least get what I paid for it later

Has it sold out in stores now? I am wondering if the masked sold well or not, I haven't seen it going for too much online yet. yeah maybe I will try. I am also wondering if I could trade this one with someone for the unmasked 1/4 when that one gets released.

Same crap problems, false netting and too big mandibles/teeth.

Yeah the netting is actually crap. You have to be very-very careful with it when you moving the figure. I have a few tears on it. I truly hope that Neca will change the netting's material and also in the future they will make it movie accurate. The city hunter is a great figure, but they have to fix the joints at the ankles and also they have to fix the netting as I said.
