NECA: Predator Movie Franchise Figures

[a-dev]

NNNOOOOOoooooo! The confusion will never end now. They should have called it the 'original' predator. Obviously they couldn't put P1 or Predator 1 (since the film was never and will never be called 'Predator 1') or KPH predator or '87 Predator on the packaging but calling it the same thing they called the one from Predators isn't a good idea either.

Just the word 'Predator' would have been ideal.

After all the hard work in the Classic thread this is just going to confuse people even more now.

I think Sabres and Blades sticky thread idea explaining the differences is even more vital now.

Wtf why on Earth would they call it Classic.

Pretty art though, minus the "ages 17+"

If people can't tell the difference between Classic and Predator 1 then they don't deserve anything in my mind. These figures are meant for the fans of the movies, not the casual dumb ass.

Of course, but you'd think they would call it something else since they've already released a different Predator with that name..

Surely everyone who posts in the Predator threads is a Pred fan but it still gets asked.

As a huge fan of the movies, those names are confusing the hell out of me. Does the classic one have the mask on or something?

EDIT - As far as I can tell, the real only change is adding the necklaces that came with the Alien vs Pred 2 pack.

CLASSIC IS THE GOOD PREDATOR IN "PREDATORS", THE LAST PREDATOR MOVIE.

And P1 is not.

That's the difference..

Obviously, but what is the difference with the figures?

 

[Elder_Predator2]

The helmet, and the lack of necklaces are the two things that most people must realize, I don't expect people to catch the trivial ____ though.

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

There have been two Classic figures released by NECA. One with the roaring head sculpt, and a battle damaged masked version.
There has been one P1 figure made, it came in the Alien/Predator two pack and had the closed mouth sculpt.
This is a masked P1.

Is that what you wanted to know?

[agentofchaos73]

I don't care which other Predators they make, because I got the best Predator in the Predator Vs. Alien twopack: the Classic Predator, which is the ONLY Predator to appear in two different movies.


hahhaahahaha!!!! Sorry, couldn't resist again.

Just to confuse things, I took the necklaces from my 2 pack P1 and put them on my roaring Classic to make a roaring P1.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Am I wrong? If so then I will kill myself.

No, you're right. That's just my general mood right now.
