NECA AvP:R Figures...First Look

[MaulFan]

Has anyone got a Wolf yet?

I don't think he'll be out for another month or so from what I've heard.

LoneWolf, I haven't had balance issues with the hybrid, but the pose I have him in has the body leaning to the right with the tail bent towards the left, distribute the weight, try that. Definitely glad I go the mandible open figure, not digging how the closed one looks.

 

[-=LoneWolf=-]

ain't out yet as i understand. second wave

Ahh ok, id like to see the final product with him. Are you picking him up Maul?

Absolutely, I'm quite bothered by the fact he's not out yet. I heard there's going to be 2 versions of him as well, Wolf I'll probably get both of, but the warrior and hybrid I just wanted mouth open figures.

 

[-=LoneWolf=-]

from what i've heard and seen so far, i'm quite sure there's gonna be 3 versions:

masked
unmasked opened mouth
unmasked closed mouth

but i've heard rumors of neca making a stealth version as well...

Yeah i hope the detail of the piece is better than McFarlanes AvP stuff

If that's the case, I'll be getting masked and open mouth version. Open mouth is more suited to the personas of these creatures and it also makes the figures more life like to be frozen in a moment instead of still with closed mouths.

As for the quality, overall I'm veryy impressed with NECA's product, I wouldn't say it's much beyond McFarlane, probably on par or just slightly better, but I like NECA's construction of the figures much better.

Is today supposed to be the day?!

No, I don't know of an official day, I just like to get out of the office sometimes so on lunch I'll swing by a nearby comic shop, they just had PredAlien and Alien Warrior, but I'm pretty sure Wolf might not be coming until the end of the month or a little later. Whenever he comes out, I'm anxious to get him.

[crazypredator2]

can't wait to get wolf predator, neca has done a great job on these.

 

[Jamal]

Im done with any toy under 1/6 scale i learned my lesson with McFarlane's stuff. My original Predator 12' is all i have left from McFarlane and its quite awesome ill give him that, it stands upright always and looks killer

Has anyone found these in stores yet? I got the alien and predalien for X-Mas, but ended up with the closed mouth Hybrid. I really want the open mouth version and have been looking for it so I can exchange it with the close mouth version. I've checked FYE, Spencers, Hot Topic and found nothing yet.
