Randy posted on twitter that promo shot with all 3 of them together isn't showing her to scale and that he is smaller than predators. Whoever photoshopped that composite didn't account for her being shorter.
NECA: Predator Movie Franchise Figures

Well, so far I'm not giving much a damn about any of NECA'S SDCC exclusives this year, but there's still one left to be shown, and it's PREDATOR related so they may hook me yet!
Not to get mine or anybody else's expectations up too high, but...
Not to get mine or anybody else's expectations up too high, but...
- Randy has said that this year's exclusive deviates from the types of PREDATOR exclusives they've offered in the past. For past SDCC exclusives we've gotten, what, either EU preds or cloaked versions of movie preds, so something different could only be... human characters?
- The recent Hawkins Coke bottle tease came right around the time Randy started dropping this year's SDCC reveals, so... maybe there is a relation between that hint and the exclusive? (Though after that tease was posted, I re-watched all scenes in PREDATOR like a dork, looking for that manila 'classified' folder, and I couldn't spot it.)
- but, the most promising hint is that the reveal for the PREDATOR exclusive is being saved for this Monday because June 12th marks the exact date that PREDATOR was released, 30 years ago.

I'm still thinking that the "folder" hint could have been for a "Dillon" figure - from the scene where they find all the paperwork in the insurgent camp - and Hawkins is crouched in the middle of the hut using the satellite dish.
Especially with the new "Rocky" figures being released - including a new "Apollo".
If that WAS the case, I certainly wouldn't want it limited to be an "exclusive" and it wouldn't make commercial sense to do that either.
.
I'm not sure a Dillon figure is likely considering Randy keeps saying that Carl Weather's is 'declining to participate'. Emphasis on the fact he keeps laying it at Carl Weather's feet - i.e blaming him. I can't imagine a scenario where a Dillon figure is actually in the works and Weathers would be happy enough for Randy to keep making him look like the bad guy.
I could be wrong. Hopefully I'm wrong.

I hear ya . . . (* sorry - wrong character
*)But Randy can be QUITE persistant.
Who knows - maybe it's just an accessories pack containing a folder, satellite dish (and a pencil) to go with the re-released "Extraction" Dutch

Those damn ultimate Jungle Hunters smell like someone's bad breath. And why is this smell sticking around and good new toy smell dissipates after just a couple of days.

It's a Saturday night and Sundays suck. I prefer to extend the former and shorten the latter.

Having said that, tonight has been ***t. Don't go out with couples. Home within 2 hours. I'd rather not have broken that 50 for 2 measly drinks.

That might have been more apt.

Not only that. It seems like Dutch figures look better too. I think the head received a new sculpt. I wasn't planning on getting the whole lot. I have no idea what am I gonna do now.
EDIT: I think I got over excited last night and I exaggerated a little. Dutch head sculpt is actually the same, but they did revise the paint. They also got rid of the weathering on the patrol Dutch, which I though was a nice touch. I'm glad the situation isn't so dramatic and I don't have to replace them all

Tnx for the link a-dev Looking those pics and really wanting a 1/4 Jungle Disguise Dutch. Such an awesome figure. Preordered Jungle Demon hopefully will be as sharp as it's Dodge counterpart. Watched the new Alien movie yesterday waiting for Neos and Xenos to kick in but instead I got Fassbender playing a flute and kissing his CGI twin.

The Dutch figures are NECA classics at only 5 years old. Alternate swap-out hands would have been nice but apart from that they are seriously cool action figures that I wanted but could only dream of back in the 90s.
Looking forward to getting more of them - there's at least one variant I never thought to have in my display - namely the ''he couldn't see me'' scene. That would basically be Jungle Disguise Dutch wearing the ammo-vest thing from one of the other figures - I would have to give it a muddy paintjob to match the figure overall which I think I could do.
Another variant is Dutch from the ''so what are you gonna try next, cheese?'' scene which is the Jungle Encounter Dutch with the gloved hands from Extraction Dutch. At some point after that scene while fleeing with Anna, Billy and Poncho he removes the gloves and that's what the stock figure depicts.
And then I want extras just because. Different poses 'n stuff.
