Why the heck are Hot Toys Ancient Predator and Davy Jones pirates Caribbean figure so hard to find?
 
1. Hot Toys wasn't as large a company back then so their release sizes were easily a small percentage of what they are today for stuff like Iron Man.

2. Seems most Predators collectors would never sell off a rare predator since they're trying to get all of them.

3. Davy Jones is awesome. Took me well over a year to hunt one down and nab one "affordably"! Mine has everything in perfect condition but without a box! It also had some unfortunate cigarette odor, but I was thankful able to remove the scent! And despite being about 5 years old, it easily holds up in quality to today's releases! Like the Hot Toys Godfather, Blade, and Leonidas!

I ended up tracking them all down since I realized there was no chance of a future 2.0 with all the great nonstop superhero movies every year keeping HT busy.

the neca 12'" version is very well done..and for $40....well.
 
Both Ancient Predators were also limited exclusive editions, more so then any other AVP Pred with the exception of Ani-Com Scar.
They also are pretty damn cool looking too!
