Official PREDATOR thread!

I JUST CAME...

Badass! Just wish it had the detacheable arm with green blood. Maybe they will make a BD exclusive.

Yeah, it will probably be some kind of exclusive. Knowing Hot Toys, they will do a couple versions of him, which is good.

 

[ragacin]

Oh my. :eek
Well I didn't need this pair of pants anyway.

 

[dekadentdave]

You know, it probably wouldn't be too difficult to make a Danny Glover/Det. Harrigan figure to go with this Pred. All you need is the new HT truetype body, a Lethal Weapon Glover head (doesn't FL make one of these?), the trousers and shirt should be easy to find and the gun with laser sight I have seen around.

 

[twistedfreak]

Are you gonna go for it dekadentdave?

 

[gdb]

HOLY CRAP!!! AWESOME!?!?! VERY!!! This is gonna be VERY kick@$$!

Oh my frakking gods...

If the paint is half as good as the prototype, that is gonna be one hell of a figure!!

I wonder if we can look forward to a one-arm version as some exclusive or another.

 

[dekadentdave]

The Predator, hell yeah.

Detective Harrigan - if I can find the Glover head then the rest should be a breeze. Not seeing one in Lonnie's catalog though. Time to check the bay.

I think Hot Toys may decide to do Danny Glover as part of the line. I mean, he was a very important character in the movie so it wouldn't be surprising. But, time will tell.

I just saw this again recently. I had no idea that Bill Paxton was in this. Or one of the Serenity crew.

 

[dekadentdave]

Hmmm... not seeing a Glover head anywhere.

If Hot Toys makes a Harrigan figure then it's a good sign we can expect a Dutch when they do the first film. I'm just not sure Harrigan is going to be a big seller for them, but the Pred needs someone to fight.

Maybe Lonnie can help us out here...

Parenthetically Dutch... Don't know if it's been mentioned before, but is anybody picking up an Apollo Creed aka Carl Weathers to make a custom Dillon? It's hard to tell from the picture on the SSC site, but I fear the likeness is not to great.
I' m going to try for one of the 125 street wear Clubber Langs though!

 

[screamingmetal]

Awesome, I can't wait to preorder!
But the helmet looks, odd. I don't remember the helmet looking like that in the movie.

 

[p!tu]

Danny Glover plz!!!

 

[screamingmetal]

After looking at numerous photos of kits, toys and stills of the actual costume, The helmet does look off the mark. It needs to be a little smoother and the proportions need to be fixed. Also the groin covering needs to be just a bit larger and I wish it was fabric. From the stills I've seen I think they're more like fish scales so it probably makes sense to have them cast plastic, I just wish it had a better result.
If that's the final prototype, then I'll be forced to display it without the helmet.

 

[p!tu]

with this head i dont mind posing him without the mask! but i see how that helmet looks very wierd and nothing like the movie. hopefully its a proto thing.

F@#king AWESOME...I can't wait to own this figure!!!

I'd definitely get a Harrigan figure.

But I'd also be all over a Bill Paxton as Jerry 'The Lone Ranger' Lambert!!

 

[dekadentdave]

Let's not forget GARY F'N BUSEY!!!!!!!!
