NECA: Predator Movie Franchise Figures

[cr`]

This is why were moving these over to another more expensive place. Were sick of this stuff. Hopefully it'll be better. The China thing can be very tough at times. Other times things go right through and come out great.

knowing how neca just love re-releasing and re-packaging figures, i think it's almost definite we'll see a 3-pack boxset of tracker, falconer, n berserker. will we see a better painted berserker then, now that you're moving to better factory? should i start selling of my single packed preds now?

 

[Macularius]

Yeah, time to amputate.


Repainting is what caused it, poor thumb.

So some skin-color paint will surely change it back

So series 2 FINALLY arrived at my local TRU Picked up Tracker and Unmasked Berserker, unfortunately no Masked Classic BTW, gotta check the quality control, all three Trackers tusks were intact, but one was missing his canon, the other was missing his neck wrap. The one I picked up was just right

Do people not use the freezer trick for stuck joints anymore? Half my figures go in the freezer after I open them, and I never have joint troubles. Pull them out when nice and cold, then ease the stuck joint until it rotates. You can't really twist the plastic to the point of breakage when it's frozen. Maybe that works better on cut joints than hinge joints though, but no issues so far over here.

Good tip! I'll keep it in mind!

I was at TRU today and saw an empty peg that said "alien v Predator". It made me think it was for the two-pack. Any word if the two-pack is out yet?

I saw the same thing at my TRU today.

Just picked up my Tracker and Berserker at TRU, they were the only two preds in the store, and the Tracker had one broken tusk... I'll check on the glue here shortly. Absolutely love them! A few sticking joints, but the hot water trick works for me.

The neca's QC really pathetic, The falconer I bought have both left arms. . They better do a proper job in the coming series, otherwise no matter how cheap they are, will be pointless.

 

[TrackerPredator]

Is there any sign of the 2-pack yet with the Alien?? The TRU in the UK don't stock NECA products, so I'll have to get mine from eBay...hopefully someone will list some.

 

[Sabres21768]

It's not due out until December, so you won't see it until then.

 

[Jace Madan]

Yeah, and I think NECA has said that the 2-pack is only just now shipping out, so depending on delays and such, we may not see the 2-pack till very late December or early January.

Usually when they say something is shipping out, it takes about a month for it to show up, although lately TRU seems to be getting the NECA stuff in before anyone else, so I guess we'll have to wait and see...

 

[Calcifer]

Where would be a good place to order one of the 1/4 Neca classic predators in europe or uk?

 

[TrackerPredator]

Calcifer, I ordered from BBTS because it'll work out cheaper than anywhere in the UK

 

[Musclebelly]

forbiddenplanet.com has him up for £59.99

 

[Idpullthecurtains]

excellent thanks for the tipoff. Has anyone ever ordered from forbiddonplanet.com? Are they pretty reliable?

 

[a-dev]

Fp.com are OK, I've used them. I sort of assume they'll be slower though, as in getting stuff later than elsewhere.

Recently FP lost a lot of bank details on their website, so I'd be very careful if you PO from there.

 

[Sniper33]

anyone pick up the new series of the figs? Not sure what the difference was with falcon and berserk, but the pred 1 was BD on this one.

Recently FP lost a lot of bank details on their website, so I'd be very careful if you PO from there.

I placed a preorder with forbiddenplanet.co.uk(not .com) once, and about a month later, money was mysteriously going from my bank account.
i lost about £200 because some robbing ____ had my bank details was buying stuff in my name.
whats worse is FP.co.uk they didnt even send me the item once it was released and didnt bother to contact me.
i did a little google search for "forbidenplanet.co.uk" and "fraud" and found some other people had very similar problems as me.
ive have stayed clear of FB ever since.
ive had no trouble with .com but dont use them any more either.

luckily i got all my money back(missing bank money and pre-order money)
and luckily i had a back up preorder with their .com website(which did actually deliver the item on release date)

 

[csutkakoma]

Terminator_Fan_Game this is very shocking...but I am glad it worked out for you and you got your money back!
