NECA: Predator Movie Franchise Figures

[Biojex]

Yeah I have no idea either, But its on my way home from work and I'm checking for some other stuff too.

 

[Jace Madan]

I'm wondering if it's going to be possible to pull the jawbone off of Berserker's mask.

It would be cool to have one without the jawbone.

Depending on what material they made it out of you could probably pry it off. May have to do some resculpting along the bottom edge though, I'm sure there are keyholes where the bone plugs into the mask when it gets put together.

I may check TRU tomorrow if only to see if they got the exclusive Bioshock Elite Big Daddy in yet but if they have the Preds their, that will be a nice suprise.

So Toys R' US is suppose to be having NECA Predators for sale tomorrow?

Nothing confirmed, mostly just wishful thinking I believe.

I hated the look of these when we first saw in-hand pictures, but now I have to say they're growing on me.

The poseability looks great. Looking forward to eventually picking these up! (If they ever get released....)

[Macularius]

...or do you?....hmmm...

I would.

I *might* check out toys r us tomorrow if anybody spots them there today.

Yeah, the paint could use some work, but that's just the price to be paid for being a mass produced assembly line figure.

I was more talking about the overall quality. With my Warrior Aliens, there are some with bend heads, molding cracks, some sort of glue-like substance stuck on the ribs, just bad stuff. From what i have seen the Pred seems to suffer from none of that.

I can always fix the paint later. Badly molded/produced plastic is something that I cannot fix, and luckily these figures seem seem to have come out very good in that reguard.

To me it seems as if these figures were the sculpts have been deformed.
The heads are too big.
The Berserker head is too round and the classic Predator has a too thin body.
The Dreads at Classic are remarkable.

Sure there are only figures from the assembly line.
But they could have been better.

E.g. the Conan figures looked like little statues.


Neca seems to subside and rest only on his license.

No more bases, poor paint jobs and deformation of the sculpts.


Too bad about the good Originalsculpts :-(

 

[The Rider]

these make me happy these best be in store tomorow, cant decide if Im gonna go buy em first or wait till after the movie, maybe buy em first and take em to the movies with me? Ima have about $60 spending money...buy all three? hmm..maybe just falconer and classic? or falconer and berserker?! AHHH

Buy yourself Berserker and Falconer.
It is certainly a cooler version of the classic out with a broken mask.


The Falconer's looking good in the pictures (only the head is too big).

But the Berserker is too light
And the dots on the belly and the legs look bad.

TRU doesnt even have them on the website. I'm thinking they aren't carrying them.

They will, but with NECA stuff it usually takes a few weeks for it to show up at mainstream stores. You never know... Lower-end collectibles are a bit tougher to keep track of.

 

[TrackerPredator]

Still no sign of these in the UK yet either.

On some websites it does say released on 30th July, so I'll just have to wait and see!!
