practically, bungie made some inspiration form the predator. the things similar is the mandibles, the species' honor (yautja's slightly different with honor), have an elegant body, massively intelligent, and are just oplain ugly
The dreadlocks the Yautja (the predator species) have aren't necessarily hair, per se. It's a hard cartilage like substance that grows in place of hair.
I hate how the ultimate City hunter and Jungle hunter are over 100 bucks, when they used to be 40! Now I have to get this guy to compensate! He still looks badass though.
The articulation is much better than the older predators, the double jointed elbow, knees and the upper torso articulation didn't exist, the look even better now, damn you Anthony for making me wanna start buying them again! Great review.
I actually used the hot water trick on my AVP Celtic and he actually has a double ball peg/barbell joint in his mid torso. It's just very restricted by all the bulk of the figure
I have this predater it is fantastic BUT the tube connecting to the shoulder broke and the spear broke right out of the packaging and so did the plasma caster but it's still good!
Nice review as always. I saw that you got the predator accessories pack and I wanted to let you know that blast effects are for two different type of plasma casters. The blue one is for the more typical one that is circular and the orange one is for the predator 2 (city hunter) caster which is more of a flat design.
They are big bcuz neca is very respectfull of the scale... if you take the arnold (from predator) figure and put it next to the predator figure is just simply amazing.
wait for the "ulitmate" city hunter and Jungle hunters. these are based off Predator 1 and Predator 2 movies and are the best imo. unless you want to collect them all then you can do that too.
AnthonysCustoms no the new ones have had it installed on them. At least the jungle hunters and city hunters (and the AVP preds) I don't think the other ones in the wave have it but if you get them you should try. Also ultimate scarface has it too.
Anthony,i really really look forward u do play arts kai sephiroth review. Still i dun know why you are not into final fantasy line since they say its done best by PA kai.Nice review as always!
The bird Of Blüdhaven Yes,he said he is done with it,but also said he will still.consider buyin it if he likes it.Jus curious why he is not into final fantasy especially final fantasy 7.
NECA has come a long way in the last few years; I still prefer the monsterarts predator Wolf but that's because of the articulation and overall sturdiness: this has that one beat in price and proportions, while matching it paintjob wise....so yeah, it's a pretty great deal. It's a damn shame DC doesn't hire NECA for releasing certain characters, I'd love to get NECA renditions of the darker characters such as Constantine, Deadman & Swamp Thing...they don't fit DC's line.
I know what kind of point you're making, but in reality both Swamp Thing & Deadman have been recently released as part of the DC ICONS line so I guess the demand, while quite small, is enough to produce them. But yeah the budget that DC allowed for ST is too small to render enough detail and accurate sculpt. Deadman was pretty decent.
Lee chefski the jungle hunter comes with an alternative head for the mask and the mask on the side if you want to pose him with mask in his hands or on the ground. a removable mask would be too big on the jungle hunter figure and it is on this one. plus they have very different masks
Alot of Neca figures have been like that lately even some dc collectibles are getting there since now american companies are making articulation even sculpt and paint very high quality like japanese figures
Because they sell well and like the person said there tons of predator comics even the fact that some designs are original designs based on the old kenner figures even just concept art. That's like you asking why they continue making alien figures when there is a market for them plus people love to army build the aliens and predator figures.
David Marrero I know that just don't see y ppl would waste there time on these when there movie ones are better like waste of time great review tho on it
TheRealClassAct Not really they are about the same in quality and like I said there is a market for them. Even them being in high demand since like I said people love to army build them plus they all look good and they are unique too by the paint jobs and sculpts so people buy them for that. So your opinion doesn't speak for everyone on that.
David Marrero I strongly agreed with you personally I think these predators are better than the movies ones the only good from movies are jungle hunter and city hunter the true classics the avp ones suck and the super predators are a joke they are ugly stupid no reason to made that stupid breed up its just stupid
It really saddens me that the Predator hair isn't called "Predlocks".
+Matt Cox it's going to be in any future reviews I do
Matt Cox 😂
Matt Cox Really? Wow.
theyre likely similar to the sangheli from halo fiction if youre familiar with that lore.
practically, bungie made some inspiration form the predator. the things similar is the mandibles, the species' honor (yautja's slightly different with honor), have an elegant body, massively intelligent, and are just oplain ugly
The dreadlocks the Yautja (the predator species) have aren't necessarily hair, per se. It's a hard cartilage like substance that grows in place of hair.
+Hoss they're space hedge hogs.
***** lol
Hoss so what are they ? Like tentacles alien tendrels ???
Adriel Omar Díaz I literally said what they are in my comment, bro.
always wondered what they were, makes sense since hair doesn't bleed. where did you get this info anyway?
Typically that hump thing on the back contains first aid supplies, so consider that a medpack.
More like a predpack 😏
biggest complaint for me with neca- is the loose joints, and easy breakage. sculpts and paint apps are phenomenal-
Steven McCann Agree about the loose joints, mostly in the leg joint.
kamenballer The legs have been fixed on the new AVP body.
Im pretty sure all us Predator fans just call em dreads.
Austin Gifford I call them deads
Austin Gifford preds
Predlocks
Predlocks
I hate how the ultimate City hunter and Jungle hunter are over 100 bucks, when they used to be 40! Now I have to get this guy to compensate! He still looks badass though.
GOJIFAN TOKUSATSU GAMING they’re available for about $30 on BBTS right now if you still need them
Hey bro I might be 2 years late but try looking at Walmart or Target I’ve seen them at both stores
The articulation is much better than the older predators, the double jointed elbow, knees and the upper torso articulation didn't exist, the look even better now, damn you Anthony for making me wanna start buying them again! Great review.
Also how does the mask fit? Are the mandibles removable?
Kostas Hawkeye no It just kinda attaches to the face over the mandables
I actually used the hot water trick on my AVP Celtic and he actually has a double ball peg/barbell joint in his mid torso. It's just very restricted by all the bulk of the figure
The disk is called a "smart disk" and is controlled by his wrist computer, also the gun is called a "Plasma caster".
I have this predater it is fantastic BUT the tube connecting
to the shoulder broke and the spear broke right out of the packaging and so did the plasma caster but it's still good!
Nice review as always. I saw that you got the predator accessories pack and I wanted to let you know that blast effects are for two different type of plasma casters.

They are big bcuz neca is very respectfull of the scale... if you take the arnold (from predator) figure and put it next to the predator figure is just simply amazing.
finally got this he is my favorite now lol its between him and city hunter. can't wait for ultimate jungle hunter
I'm not much of a Predators or Alien fan, but I've convinced my self to get one of each to go with my MK figures because of just how great they are.
graefx You defo should get one. He looks pretty great alongside Scorpion or Sub-Zero when you pose them as if they're fighting.
wait for the "ulitmate" city hunter and Jungle hunters. these are based off Predator 1 and Predator 2 movies and are the best imo. unless you want to collect them all then you can do that too.
Great review as always Anthony!!! These have been fantastic.
Does the wrist computer open up? There should be a little hinge on his left gauntlet if it does.
predaguy yes it does.
+predaguy shoot. I thought they only did that on the q scale.
AnthonysCustoms no the new ones have had it installed on them. At least the jungle hunters and city hunters (and the AVP preds) I don't think the other ones in the wave have it but if you get them you should try. Also ultimate scarface has it too.
no doubt. good stuff
AnthonysCustoms just thought you should know
I tried ordering this but it says it's not out yet, wtf?
I like the colour scheme of this one. A nice pale contrast for a ghost. for the hair, I usually call it Predator dreadlocks 😕.
Pretty cool, I like a skin colour of him
looks good bro
Anthony,i really really look forward u do play arts kai sephiroth review. Still i dun know why you are not into final fantasy line since they say its done best by PA kai.Nice review as always!

It's a damn shame DC doesn't hire NECA for releasing certain characters, I'd love to get NECA renditions of the darker characters such as Constantine, Deadman & Swamp Thing...they don't fit DC's line.
they dont fit anyone's line due to limited demand for such b/c list characters.
I know what kind of point you're making, but in reality both Swamp Thing & Deadman have been recently released as part of the DC ICONS line so I guess the demand, while quite small, is enough to produce them. But yeah the budget that DC allowed for ST is too small to render enough detail and accurate sculpt. Deadman was pretty decent.
Great review as always. what price point?
Thanks ill be getting it now
I suspect we're looking at the sculpt for Neca's upcoming "30th Anniversary" ultimate Jungle Hunter predator with removable mask and whatnot.
Lee chefski the jungle hunter comes with an alternative head for the mask and the mask on the side if you want to pose him with mask in his hands or on the ground. a removable mask would be too big on the jungle hunter figure and it is on this one. plus they have very different masks
the hair is usually called dreadlocks and his hight is perfect cause the predators are usually around 7 ft tall
the ultimate jungle hunter will be on this body
do you know that?
AnthonysCustoms look at the pictures on BBTS very similar might not be exactly the same but some parts could be reused.
Great video you made. Thank you for your video. Keep up the great work you do.
Anthony don't you have the Dutch figures?
+Rocky Austin I don't
hi Anthony
those beautiful double jointed elbows
Ghost Predator from movie or comic?
Neither to my knowledge
That is a nice figure.
That's a better figure to review man
In your next predator review can you please compare it to a 6inch black series figure please!
+Dorian Brito no. That's what the ruler is for
Actual predator hair
also Anthony if in paid you would you make a custom for me?
yeah, Kenner never made anything called a "Ghost Predator". Neca pulled this figure right out of their ass.
Ut00bsux0rz at least It's a cool figure
I have a duplicate of the 2015 SDCC exclusive if you want it.
+Cole Viloria how much do you want for it?
***** $45.00
If you're on twitter I can discuss further in a dm.
cant afford it. sorry.
***** 20.00$ ?
This is import quality
Alot of Neca figures have been like that lately even some dc collectibles are getting there since now american companies are making articulation even sculpt and paint very high quality like japanese figures
Hey Anthony are you going to watch the new Predator movie on Hulu?
You see I don't understand y Neca are doing predator figures if there own none movie related that's y I don't buy these one
predator comics... theres a lot
Because they sell well and like the person said there tons of predator comics even the fact that some designs are original designs based on the old kenner figures even just concept art. That's like you asking why they continue making alien figures when there is a market for them plus people love to army build the aliens and predator figures.
David Marrero I know that just don't see y ppl would waste there time on these when there movie ones are better like waste of time great review tho on it
