What should the original Predator come with?

[Cap'n Cook]

How about Billy's bloody skull with spine attached.

Damn straight.

 

[prefused]

how about a skinned body too , its been mentioned before.
Why not ? There was a big scene with them in for pred 1 , they might consider it.
Hot toys always seem to surprise.

meh.
there's only 2 ways i can think to do it and neither is appealing.
1st way is as an accessory. which would just be a hunk of red and pink plastic.
2nd way would be like a 2-pack with an articulated 1/6th figure that would be pretty useless as a figure in itself and at double the price.
and in either case, i don't see the point.
it's not like we ever saw the pred skinning them, or ever standing next to them. so i don't get how it works as a display.

a couple of skulls would be better.
could just be me, though.

I just want the cannon/pack to be removable and the medkit to open, and hopefully have the interchangable mandibles all in one go, I don't wanna have to buy two again. Hopefully if there is a variant it wont be somthing you have to buy to feel like you got him 'complete.' And like everyone else seems to agree, some skulls would be great. Maybe some clean and some bloody. They will probably reuse the spine/skull that came with P2.

Okay, so how's this:

Extra set of mandibles
Accurate wristblades - possibly extra set that can extend out around Dutch's head
Working medical kit (like the BD P2)
Billy's bloody skull
Wood base with all the team's skulls, or the skulls in a sheath/trophy display
Dart gun that was cut from the film
Dillon's severed arm locked onto that MP5 (awesome idea)

Probably asking for too much for the following, but it'd be cool:
Possible LED lighting effects on bio mask, wrist computer?
Extra head sculpt spitting up green blood?

And even with all the Lost Predator "controversy", I wouldn't mind if they threw in extra weapons not seen in the movie, like a spear or whatever.

I just want it simple. Pred with Armor. Mandibles. Bring back Bendy hands.

most of those could be packed with other figures from Dutch's team and some are completely unnecessary. (stuff that wasn't in the movie)
and wouldn't the "wood base" be kinda, you know, big?
IF they make the medicomp, it'll be packed with the exact same predator figure you just bought, but they'll squirt some green paint on it and call it "exclusive battle damaged special edition variant exclusive anicom asia super happy time exclusive special variant edition".

however, i do think it's about time we get a predator with working/LED electronics. LEDs are cheap.

 

[SANTI]

Has anyone made one yet? With working leds on a bio?

 

[Randysgut]

definently should have all the skulls of the commandos, and should include the skull of the guy who got blasted in the head

 

[CelticPredator]

What the hell is the dart gun? If it wasnt in the film, or anywhere else...why bother?

 

[Elder_Predator2]

could have the blood coming out of his mouth , I know it only happened when the log hit him but I don't care , it would look bad ass.
As I said the extra blade things , I really really think hot toys will do it.

I need one of my predators damaged , I have all the clean versions.
I will probably get a bd predator 1 if its different enough.

Hicksy, if you want, I can customize my wolf body for a BD look w/blood.

 

[barryo]

a cloaking device that renders the toy invisible...............anything less is unacceptable !!!

 

[man_vs_machine]

I agree. He didn't have too many extras in the film anyhow. He'll be going on my shelf looking like he did in the film, in that crouched down hunting position. The extra skulls and the base would be sweet though!

 

[SMJ]

I know this isnt really a "come with" thing, but I noticed it seems the bust has the fly eye on the mask like Wolf, but he ought to have the lens w/ fly eye behind it, like P2 does. I'll be really peeved if the helmet eyes are like the ones on the bust. So I hope it 'comes with' that. Unless I'm wrong on that, does anyone know about the bust eyes or if I'm just totally wrong about this? lol

 

[Kratos]

How about Billy's bloody skull with spine attached.

Definitely some of the Commando Teams Skull Trophies

 

[CelticPredator]

I dont know about a Kevin head....I mean, is anyone going to display it like that? And what would you do with the head?

So, as much as I think the man was brilliant...no thanks. \

And to the person who said the wood base would be too big...not really. It wouldnt be accurate, it would just be the jungle ground, mabye in water, with a log, and some skulls lined up on it. It'd work, and be a great base for the predator. (it would also make it worth the money. )

Probably something like this:

For me, I have no interest in that. But I understand there might be some who would dig that. Instead of HT doing it (because the man is dead so wouldn't they have to get likeness rights from his family, etc!?) why doesn't one of our resident sculptors do a comission like that if anyone is interested.

Imagine a Stan Winston 1/6 scale figure (which I believe was talked about for a comission on here or THL) next to a 1/6 HT Predator 1 with a KPH head. If you're into that type of display (i.e. like the people who have say a George Lucas 1/6 scale doll) then that might be cool.

Who knows.

 

[CelticPredator]

Yeah, I know how it could work...it just wont work. No one is going to display the Predator like that. Mabye if they came out with a special version with Kev...or something.

 

[Devil_666]

I don't think HT should even attempt that for a mass produced AND anticipated item like this. Leave it to a private commission on a board like this etc. That's strictly for diehard fans. Not for regular Predator fans like us. I buy the Preds for the Preds.. not for the actors underneath the suits.

 

[CelticPredator]

Exacly.

Kevin made the character work...sure. But he, and pretty much every other "real" person (theres a few exceptions), they're kinda boring....

 

[wookster]

I actually like the idea of a KPH head, quirky.
I want to make a little Stan Winston display eventually, be cool if HT could actually make a Stan figure to stand centre stage, he could hold the Pred head in his hands (mask stylee), the figure could wear the KPH head. And as HT have already given us the Endo, ALIENS warrior, Elder Pred 2, Pred 2 and Ed Scissor hands is just round the corner it could be a cool little display.
