NECA working on new Predator action figures

Posted by: Dr_Teng In: Toys

Figures.com just announced that they’ve had a talk with NECA’s head of product development. Apparently, they’re going to be releasing figures for Predator, Predator 2, and the upcoming Predators film. No human characters are planned yet, they’re going to start with the different looks of the Predators and work from there.

On one hand, it’ll be good to have some low-cost entry level toys for Predator fans with decent face sculpts, not everyone can afford Hot Toys, after all. On the other hand, one of my friends that received the Dead Space figure of theirs told me that one of the joints busted already, so I’m not sure their quality has improved since I broke one of my Gears of War figures by dusting it. Let’s hope it has.

Interesting. Going to jump over to figures.com. Never heard of it. Thank You Dr.
Looking forward to seeing these. As you say Hot Toys are not affordable for everyone always. Including me, though I could not resist the Predator on throne and may have to get Butch (have to??? haha).

I even bought the 12 inch McFarlane Predators and one Alien I thought they were so well done. 12 inch Gunslinger Spawn too – and couple others. Sure does creep up on ya. LOL

..and thanks also for the heads up about NECA quality. Fortunately I use them for display purpose only and they are not handled. Then I’m not really USING them am I?? (Blame my parents please.)
