Predators - 1/6th scale Classic Predator Collectible Figure

[a-dev]

I think whoever you guys were responding to was probably suggesting that this Predator is too generic to be be considered either the P1 or the Classic. I disagree, personally I don't really see the gross innaccuracies or care enough at least to be put off this figure. If a figure has something plainly stupid looking about it then I'll step in and care - the original HT P1 had a ridiculously large biomask that made him look like a bobblehead from some angles and his dreads flared out like Doc Browns hair - however thats been addressed on Classic. And the reason I didn't buy the Big Chap was more because I thought the face, such an important part of the Alien, looked silly even to the point of being unintentionally funny moreso than because of any innaccuracies...although obviously innaccuracy played into that.

Classic exudes sheer Predator character though whether it looks exactly like the movie suit or not.

You know... from today unless it's not P1 or P2 I don't care about accuracy. Really, just not worth it.
So when Tsang will scupt P1 and/or P2 with the same quality only then I'm gonna racked my barrels of s*** on him again.

Ouch, I just recently bought a Big Chap. Those inaccuracies are no biggie for me. Big Chap still look bad @$$ for me. Hope they'll eventually make a Alien Queen too.

Fair enough. I can't see them making an Alien Queen at this point - I don't think the size itself would be a turn-off for them but the difficulties of engineering it and whatnot...

NECA, Hot Toys, someone needs to give us a Queen!

 

[RIDDICK]

Not HT for sure. Don't wanna see another rubber disaster with the clown like mug.

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

Hot Toys would be the worst company to make a Queen.

NECA would definitely be the best..for a figure atleast.

You know if they decided to make somthing that big and popular they'd step up the quality for it like they did with the 19 inch Pred.

 

[AARON691983]

I need my QUEEN!!!!

 

[a-dev]

In fairness, the inevitable toy snobbery that will follow Lar'ja's post aside, people here wouldn't be satisfied with a Neca Queen anyway because it wouldn't be 1/6. It couldn't go with the HT powerloader.

Toy snobbery. That's a perfect way to put it; that's something that has turned me away from this board the past few months. I just can't stand the amount of dumb ____s on here; no names will be mentioned because I'm not trying to get banned or an infraction. It seems like everytime I enter a Hot Toys Predator thread or a NECA Predatir thread there are people who speak their opinion and people who insult and attack a product and the people who like it.

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

As just a figure alone..NECA would be the right choice.

I can't imagine the problems a 1/6 rubber Queen would have..
Of course it would look incredible, though.

There's the Revoltech Queen. It may not be very big, but it's a great figure . I have it and love it . The only problem is the necessary assemble because it's hard to fit the parts and some places are very easy to break.

IMHO, the best way to manufacture an Alien Queen will be as a statue. Due to it's size, even in 1/6 scale, the price would be legendary. And for that kind of price, I can't afford the risk of the Queen melting on my shelf after 2 to 3 years.

I think it'd be a great addition to the HT Predators collection.

Yup, it will be a big challenge to them for sure and w/ HT's known prob on rubber bodies, it could really be a turn off to some but for me, I'll gladly take the risk & would love to own one made by HT just to have a high-end representation of her for my collection.
