I am really having a hard time putting this guy down. He just looks so real and iconic looking on the coffee table.

This is my favourite Predator figure to date.
 
Welcome to Hot Toys Preds.:lol

LOL. It's still so cool overall that the seams are not a deal breaker. But really, for this price, they should come with more than one head for open and closed mandible poses.

Another thing, are the heads supposed to fit so loose? When I was posing mine last night and messing with the LEDs, the head popped off 3 times. Luckily it didn't get damaged but it scared the crap out of me when it hit the floor.

Mine is the same so you are good. My left foot was bit loose too. Nothing that effects the figure in any great way I think.
 
Cool. Just making sure it isn't defective. I'll try to be more careful.

This is by far my favorite 1/6 figure ever despite the flaws. My Sideshow and Medicom figures pale in comparison to this. Can't wait to get more. I'm definitely going to get one of the HT Ironman figures. Probably Mark IV or VI.
 
One more question (this is my first HT figure so sorry if I sound like a pain in the butt).

Is the armor on his groin and thigh area glued on? I tried to straighten them but they don't really move. I know the old HT Predators were model kits and everything was removable. But the armor on this guy seems to be fixed in one place.
 
Hey guys,

Thought I'd share it here as well :) But I am making a 1987 Predator HS that will fit the Classic body. The interest thread is up here:

Here are some snapshots:

And I will be offering different heads with different facial expressions:

Though I am not plagues by this issue I have read that a lot of people suffer this defect from this figure. It's not a total deal breaker as long is doesn't fall off when you're just posing it normally.
 
The one to the far right is sick! But the closed mandible version needs work. P1 is a lot more closed especially the upper mandibles.

Thanks Rain :) But again, they're essentially just snapshots. I can make them as closed or as open as I want them to be for the actual HS because they're rigged. In fact, even his brow and eyelids are rigged, allowing for a full range of facial expressions. :)
 
3 days....until...my...Classic....arrives....:yess:

Can I make it home in time to meet the UPS truck by 5PM??? :pray:

If I don't I'll have to wait another day bc of the signature requirement...I may take an hour off of work just to get home early and meet the UPS man....LOL:lol

Yeah it doesn't fall off when posed (not yet anyway), but when moving him around it doesn't take much to make it drop. I'm not sure how hard I'm supposed to press it into the socket. It doesn't snap apparently so I just press hard enough to make it stick.

I still have time to exchange it but knowing my luck I'll get one that's worse. Or it'll have something else wrong with it.
 
Opened my Valentine presents this morning. Classic and Shadow Predator exclusives. Awsome figures! Hope they keep them coming. My lovely lady also bought me the '89 Batman. Can't wait to see him.
