As a big fan myself lets just say I'm really smiling a lot about it.
In what scale? 1/6th or 19"? If the latter - meh.
I want a 19" or 1/6 by Kyle, doen't matter... even if the paintjob is regular.. I will happily repaint it!
I'd take this for 70 bucks even if it weren't painted at all. 70 bucks you'd get the best Predator 1 sculpt out there. I bet many that say they won't get this thing would if it was to really get made. I have the HT P1 and P2 and they are painted OK and that's about it. For 160 dollars I would think they would be better. 19 inch better sculpt and only 70 to 80 dollars would be a bargain for this figure.
i've always wished NECA/McFarlane/everyone would make unpainted figures. no matter how good the QC is, a factory paintjob is gonna look like a factory paintjob. and i usually end up having my figures repainted anyway. even my HT figures. they wouldn't even need to be in retail stores, just make unpainted mail order versions of their figures.I'd take this for 70 bucks even if it weren't painted at all. 70 bucks you'd get the best Predator 1 sculpt out there.

and i'd pay $100+ for a 15" TRUE 1:6 scale tankman pred. lousy paint or not. i still don't own or care about 18" scale stuff though.
bigger does not equal better. at least for me. and you also have to consider that 1:6 scale is easier for retail stores to carry because it doesn't eat nearly as much shelf space. that's one of the issues NECA brought up in that article Sabres posted in the Predator franchise topic. 18" scale figures are just too much of a hassle to sell and a $70+ 19" predator figure would just sit on the shelf collecting dust like most NECA 18" stuff does now. my LCS can't give those things away. they have endos, patricks, aliens, and michaels clearanced down to $20 and nobody gives a s#!t. even the local Spencer's in the mall doesn't carry any 18" NECA figures at all these days.18' stuff looks really out of place compared to 1/6th collections, but they look really impressive when stored away from everything else or have another 18 companion with them (in this case, the 18 inch alien)
