If you’ve been following our forums, for a good part of today a number of our members have been raving over the recent issue of Toyfare, a magazine dedicated to figures and etc. This was for a good reason:
For the most part, it’s an interview which talks about the detail in the sculpts and on the license. However, it did also mention something about the new figures coming out. Wave 1 will contain the Alien warrior and the Predalien plus a variant Predalien.
Wave 2 will be out next next year and will be 3 variants on Wolf. Turns out NECA also have the license to do Alien figures, a photo of the prototype sculpt can be seen in the article. Thanks to Demonio Cazador, I’ve uploaded some scans of the article onto the forum for all.
Update: Scans can be found on the next page.

I dont know what every one is complaining about. The predator looks way better than he did in the first AVP, but still still doesn't have the same touch as stan winston design was. It is still great 4/5... ;D

The Predator's mandibles look way out of proportion for the figure. I hope the movie version isn't so funky looking.

"MCFARLANE GET THAT DAM LICENSE BACK! THIS TOYS LOOKS RUBBISH!" Sorry but you compared the Mcfarlane toys to Neca? You are joking! The Mcfarlane is one of the worst figure maker company which is make the poor, low quality and devoid of all pretence stuffs.Don't make me laugh!

Wolf looks good,he's like a true blend of P1 and a comic.That alien looks better then the prototype.Also it depends on what toy you get.I've wanted to through some of Mcfarlane's toys into a wood-chipper,same go's for Neca,but there were some from both companys that i wanted to empty my wallet on! :D .But i gotta say,Wolf looks a lot better then the AVP toys!.Out of those one's i liked Choppers the best!! ;D ;D ;D .

i think they look great but i'm sorry, am i missing something? where are the acid burns on Wolf's face? am i just blind or something? oh and i don't know... i'm not a big fan of the Aliens having those huge K-9 teeth. it was always scarier to me when their teeth more resembled human teeth. it made it seem more like a supernatural demon of space spawned from a human being, but now they're just like beasts for the Hunters to kill. oh well that's a good thing i guess. Predator Pride :D

The acid burn is on the other side of his face. They seemed to have reversed it with the figures or maybe they just flipped the image.

I like the way the PREDATOR looks. Anyone saying that it sucks, is obviously oblivious to the fact that not all PREDATOR's look the same. Also, this is more than likely a "conceptual" figure, and will be tweaked for consumer purchase. Yeah, McFarlane did a great job with the first couple waves of figures, but he's moved on to the almighty HALO thing. Plus, the ones made by his company really werent that great for poseability, and sturdiness. I dont know how many times pieces, and parts fell off my figures while trying to pose them. All in all though, the designs were great. I am going to give NECA a chance to step it up. I have never owned a NECA figure yet, so I'm hoping to get quite a few figures each (that's how I roll), so I can dsplay a couple, and keep the others in there bubbles and such. What I've seen of their previous figures, like G.o.W., and the horror figures, I think they will probably put some good quality design, and playability in these new AvP-R figures...I hope. 8)

??? I'm still confused as to why NECA has stolen practically EVERY McFARLANE MOVIE LICENSE!!! Don't mean to ramble, but NECA'S T-800 Endoskeleton looks like scrap metal compared to McFarlane's work of art. Same applies to this predator, comparing it with the McFarlane's preds...In my opinion...!
