I really like it! The closed mouth looks a little weird but it's pretty cool. Can't wait to see the masked version though.

Absolute Badass!!
I like the Ugly MoFo!!!
mandibles looking a litle weird, but overall, i kinda like it !
I really like our Predinator ;D
The angle makes the figure look 10 times better from the Toyfare picture.
I'm really liking the way it looks, a sure buy for me.
Still can't make out the shoulder and hip articulation. I do hope it's ball joint.
I like it!!! The mandibals are a little funky but its cool. I think I'm just going to get the masked version. (How tall is it?)

7inchs they said in toyfare.
Most likely the same size as the Mcfarlane Predators.
Yes!! I collect the six inch McFarlanes so thats good!!
I like the style :)
So, whats anybodies guess on how much POA the Predator will have? Or which parts of his body will be articulated.
Me in terms of body parts I'm hoping for at least ball jointed hips, shoulders, and head. And pin chest.
Way better than that Hot Toys DOLL crap! Mandibles look a little thick but I'm defiantly going to get it. Was hoping the wrist blades would be slightly bigger but meh! :) The more I look at this model the more I don't want Wolf to die in the movie.

Gotta question? Have you seen a Hot Toys figure fully assembled "live"...
You might not like it, the scale, the materials whatever...but you shouldn't simply call "crap" the best Pred collectibles out there... 8)
Besides...we haven't seen Hot Toys Wolf now have we? ;)
With that said, I think NECA's done a great job with this one!
Yeah dude, don't judge Hot Toys till you've held one...(unless of coarse, you HAVE, and you still thought it was gay, then ya know, thats cool, everybody has their own opinion ;) )but this NECA Wolf looks bad ass...even though I got rid of all my McFarlanes after I got my Hot Toys stuff, I'll have to get this bad-ass fig to hold me over till Hot Toys gets theirs out. Personally, Wolf is my favorite pred, including all other movie-comic-game preds. Unless he somehow doesn't look so good on screen. Guess I'll find out soon enough though. ;D Can't wait to see what else NECA gets to do of the Aliens/Predators in the future. Hell if McFarlane's figs had appealed to me as much as this does, I may not have spent all that money on HT....DAMN lol

I completely agree SMJ, I did the exact thin, I got rid of all my McToys Aliens and Preds, except for the first MM6 box set, and the AVP Series 2 Queen to go along with Microman AVP.
And I hear you on Hot Toys prices...I had to cancel my Pred 2...but when there's a chance I'll get it!!
HOT TOYS RULE!!!! ;D ;D ;D
I just hope Neca releases some human figures too...
lol yeah those prices...Human figs would be cool. I'd like to see NECA or Hot Toys do a Dutch ( I know a lot of people have said that ) Its a shame too though that I got rid of my MF figs...you know how much they sell for on E-bay??? lol I just gave a lot of mine to some kids that lived close to me...oh well, that made them happy...lucky little bastards.... :D I DO still have my masked Predator 1 though, so at least he'll fit in with neca-wolf...Demonio did you sell yours? <McFarlane's I mean. (and YES, Hot Toys RULES!!! ;D But NECA is impressing me)
Human figs, I'd like to see Dutch's team in Predator 1, specially Mac and Blain ;D
Hoping NECA or McF would make it someday
Anyway, which one you guys prefer, Closed Mouth or Opened Mouth?
Yeah the whole team would be bad-ass...but I'd prefer NECA do it, too expensive to get em all via Hot Toys lol

:D yeah i know, besides I'm collecting 6-7 inches ones, would be great if i put them side by side along with other preds figures
I think it looks great, looks a lot like the Jungle Hunter.
Yeah I sold mine,
I got a decent deal on Ebay, I'm sure I could've sold them for more, but I needed the cash right away so I sold them with a Buy it Now option, not bad around 150 for AVP preds, Preds 2, Alien, Alien from Aliens, Grid and Dog Alien.
A Hot Toys Dutch's tema woould be awesome! They already have Carl Weathers (Rocky)...and the muscular bodys look awesome!
The Predator Figures I'm Gonna Get Is The Open Mandibles, And Masked. However I Would Prefer A Predator To Come With A Removible Mask, Thats Why I Rated It Good.
Are the Hot toyss figures Poseable?

Oh yeah, I hear that they can break easy. But that was from a view people.
The snap kits are the ones that can break easily.
My 14" Alien can do all sorts of crazy stuff without ill effect.
Yeah, the Hot Toys 14" Preds are poseable, just don't try to take off the arms and legs that you're supposed to put on, they aren't meant to be taken apart again. ;)

Yes i have seen one live (Scar Predator) and even if i hadnt it wouldnt matter since you can see from the pictures that they are out of proportion, have clothes like dolls and simply dont look like all that great. People here seem to see them as the ultimate collectable but they are just expensive dolls to me. They are WAY over rated for the price you pay. Seriously if you want good looking preds go cheack out www.predatorstuff.com (http://www.predatorstuff.com) I would rather collect £200 resin cast fully painted Predator statues than those Dolls you all seem to rave about. I would rather pay the extra £100 for this than the Hot Toys Scar

That NECA Wolf looks way better than any hot toys pred. Apart from the mandibles its all in correct proportion and doesn't have any clothes

Why not its my opinion, you sound like another Hot Toys fan-boy and NO they are not the best Pred collectibles out there by a LONG SHOT! If you see Hot Toys as the best then you need to defiantly check out www.predatorstuff.com (http://www.predatorstuff.com)
Ok, OK...you can call them crap, that's fine...
I visit that site pretty often and they do have tons of cool kits and statues and collectibles. But a lot of them are artistic interpretations, nothing wrong with that, but it's like the EU from Star Wars, cool stuff but for me, it's not the Star Wars I like.
Same with a lot of those statues and kits, they look cool, but they are not the Predators I like. There's a few very neat movie kits and statues, but the fact that there's just one pose and one material makes it less attractive. Even though that Scar pred in the pic is screen accurate and looks pretty cool, the problem is that it's bulky as the ones from the movies...that, I really don't like.
I noticed that you have a real issue with "dolls" as you call them, somebody posted that the original action figures were the G.I. Joe 12"...you don't call those dolls do you? And what's the problem with clothes? The Hot Toys pred have "real" net suits, and the mixed media makes it very realistic.
So, let me rephrase it,, Hot Toys Predators are the BEST action figures out there...how's that? Better? ;)
If not that's cool, let's move on, you made your point I made mine, if you're happy with your McToys and I'm with my Hot Toys I think all is good! Don't you think?

Well I never did collect GI Joe (wasn't that popular in the UK) but I do see them as dolls for kids, same as your Hot Toys stuff, they are dolls, its not like I don't like dolls - they are great if your 7 but I'm 24. I'm not into the whole articulation thing because my models are placed on a shelf to be looked at not moved about and played with. If I see a NECA, McFarlane, Koto, or any other Plastic/resin moulded model with a pose I like then ill buy it for its
looks not for its articulation or its little clothes or its interchangeable toy guns.
If I'm totally honest I don't really mind the Hot Toys Predators - they look OK but people seem to praise them way to much for what they are – They have clearly visible hinged joints just like a cheap toy, they have out of proportioned body parts, they have inaccurately sculpted dreds and cost way too much yet people love them, it seems crazy to me! But each to his own. You use the term "action Figure" - that immediately puts me off buying 1 as I grew out of action figures long ago. I'm happy with my models/ornaments and you're happy with your "action figures" so all I want to say is that I think that NECA Wolf beats any Hot Toys Predator hands down and I'm entitled to that opinion.
Yep, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but this "dolls" aren't for kids...
This are high-end collectibles, nobody in their right mind will give a Hot Toys predator to a 7 year old...and the reason people praise them is because they're worth every penny to the people that like them.
Same with McToys, Koto or even Kenner.
They're not everyone's cup of tea, but let me remind you that McToys and Neca are toys too, they are action figures too, and they are even closer to a toy for a 7 year old than Hot Toys...starting with the price tag and materials. So you haven't grown out of action figures that far yet! ;)
And there's nothing wrong with that, it's not like somebody is more "mature" for collecting McFarlane vs. Hot Toys vs. a Garage Kits...in the end all of them are collectibles of movies your fond of from your childhood. All men like their toys, be it cars, gadgets or action figures! ;D
With that said...I'd like to wrap up this little debate with a picture that it's worth a 1000 words:
(https://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sideshowtoy.com%2Fmas_assets%2Fjpg%2F6347_press02-001.jpg&hash=16b6bc3b2f9c71d8339e7d48a40e75b6d8e26980)
I used to buy the figures when I was 14 or so, but to be honest, I feel I'm a little old to be having toys lying around. Not to mention they don't really interest me.
And I don't even think the Hot Toys ones look good enough to warrant the hefty costs. They look disproportionate and annorexic in some cases. And the paint jobs on some of them are crap.
Not that I'd buy it anyway.
yet another merchandise thread over run by the hot toys debate! its funny how things work out with different people. i used to build and paint models when i was 10. now i'm 25 and i build/paint/customize dolls. i lost interest in models because they're static. i think everyone can agree that your favorite predator in a bitchin' pose is sweet. i see it like i've got an infinite amount of new models by buying just one with good articulation. i like it because its entertaining, you can interact with it. i want my hicks smoking a cigarette. so i kit bash a little, get him a pack of smokes, bend his arm, and bam! i've got smoking hicks model. sure, the joints are kind of an eyesore, but i feel like its a pretty good trade off. with the human figures they either give them a "muscle suit" or you can cover up the joints with watches and sleeves. the predators are different though. i usually just leave some of the lights off in the display case. just like they'd appear in the darkness in the movie - to hide the fact that they're just guys in big painted doll suits.
well, I personally am a collector of "action figures", and all I have to say about the Neca figures is that I will probably end up paying alot of cash to get them. I like to buy multiple figures just in case. The WOLF PREDATOR looks awesome (as good as it could be considering the scale), and the ALIEN figures look pretty sharp also.
As for the hottoys editions... DAMN they are expensive!!! I would love to buy these f**kers, but Papa has ababy, and Momma spanks! I will eventually end up having bought them though, I am a freak about figures. ;D ;D ;D
Yeah, I hear you, I can't wait for the Pred 2 Elder, it's going to rock!!
Question.
In the AVP: R game, Wolf has wrist blades on both arms. Though I haven't seen that in the movie trailers nor on the figure.
Was that just a game add on?

DAMN IT!!! I hate it when you think youre going to get ahead on your collection, then BAM!, they come out with more figures for you to spend your hard earned money on. Another thing too, you know there is going to be multiple editions of each figure that comes out. DAMN you sideshow/hottoys...DAMN YOU!!!!! >:( >:( >:(
According to Forbidden Planet, the figures will be out on Feb 28.
I wonder why Neca doesn't have Series 3 on their site. Wolf looks sweet though:

So, is this from the third series? From what I knew, NECA was doing the same thing they did with the PREDALIEN. They would have a helmeted, and a closed/opened mandible WOLF. Hmm? Now I dont know what to think about this. Anyway, what is the third set going to be, anyone know?

Well the Sideshow's figures are very high detail and cost like over £100, these are good detail and articulate at about £12.99 very good detail for the price.

I really like it! The closed mouth looks a little weird but it's pretty cool. Can't wait to see the masked version though.
Looks like shit compared to Sideshow's.
Thise looks just awsome in my eyes,but ofc. the hottoys are way better, exept they have a tend of a big head sadly
No, they do not. It only looks like that in the promo shots.
.................. well i think and some other one here think that hottoys have a big head ok??

yeah I thought that aswell
They look like they do in the pics, but once you have them in-hand, you'll see the heads are in-scale. I first noticed this when I got my Predator 2 Pred and compared it to the promotional images Hot Toys and Sideshow put out.
Here are those higher resolution images I promised:

What is the price range on this?
It'll be the same as the others which were £10-15 here so I'm guessing $20-30?
I love the one with the pistol!
Does it have the markings on his helmet?
Very Nice,
Neca's doing a great job, but I hope the quality of the prototype is as good on the production pieces.
I will have to pass on this, I'd rather have the Hot Toys one ;)

I hadn't noticed they had a variant. Damn money grabbers, ey?!
I was just looking at the articulation on Neca's site. No hinged elbows? Man that's dissapointing... That's going to restrict the posing a lot :-\

And no ball jointed hips, chest, or cut waist. The Wolf has some good POA points, but then it's totally dead at the same time.

na,more like 16,I paid 15.99 for the Alien warrior and Predalien.The Wolf fig is super badass,waaay better than the hot toys assortment,the hottoys figs have good articulation but they lack that certain....uh how do I say....damn,I dunno how to explain it,everything about them seems off,head to body scale (big heads).McFarlane had super detail and quality but that slowly eroded away....they got sloppy and the final AVP figures killed the line.Neca combines good articulation with good quality and attention to detail.I've been waiting for figures like these for a very long time and you can bet your *** I'm gonna be out there hunting down The Wolf ;D
Ha. I only paid 10.99. Zing.
Thank God payday is next week. I'll pick 'em both up then.
lol my payday is THIS friday ;D,AND! i get my taxes back! ;D me so happy lol.The money for me is never the problem,it's trying to hunt these little bastards down that's the problem.
You mean, they're out right now?
Yeah...this thread is about Series 2. I'm quite sure you post mighta been a little misleading.
Just ordered mine my series 2 Masked Wolf from a place in California! Yay. Delivery estimate says I should get it next week!!! ;D Now I can create my Wolf vs. Chet fantasies!
I'm sick of waiting for my Predator. :-\
When do these things ship?
The preds look amazing!
I have 2 sets of series 2 with an extra WOLF, and 2 sets of series 3 on order. I cant wait for the series 2 to arrive. I need to open one of those bad boys up, and display it with my Alien, and Hybrid. I also have a PREDATOR palisades bust hopefully. 8)

i orderd masked on amazon, but there was a mistake and they are coming in febuary, and he got 2 hybrids and 2 aliens, so i am getting wolf, free shipping and a free alien!
mcfarlane's looked better... this looks like the big bad cheap tianguis bootleeged toys in mexico
Can't wait to have him in my beautiful hands! Yes it's true, I have beautiful hands :-*
oh hell, no extra hand on the masked version? Crap. >:(

Mcfarlane's version were very inaccurate and got sloppy with the designs.Even the queen's head-crest was done wrong....the pointed tips were tipped up instead of down,the dog alien's head was to big and the inner jaw to small,and the alien resurrection version was....uh how do I say it........bland? it looked like a dried twig or something.The
Aliens version looked like a tard which pissed me off the most because that is my favorite Alien design,all they did was stick a different head,tail,forearm on it and then gave it a new paint job and bam! just another re-paint
I've owned ALL the Mcfarlane Alien/Predator Figs and Only the first Alien/Predator boxed set and Hicks were noteworthy.
The Neca Figures kick serious ass,Neca was able to pull off the Skeletal look of the Alien right. mabye if you actually bought a few and stopped talking outta your ass you'd know what I was talking about
The Unmasked Predator toy should have came with a helmet!
I'm disappointed that it doesn't.
I know, it's money milking at it's worst! :P
He looks crap, He does not look like Wolf at all.
Who cares ;) its allll goooood!!!

The helmet looks bad on the masked Predator when it's in the package. But when it's out it looks good. Doe's anyone agree with me on that???

Definitely not real. Someone just jacked up the brightness on a pic of the regular figure.
You won't even be able to make out the details on the Stealth figure. It's basically just a glump of plastic. :P
^That's not entirely true,it depends on light and/or how close you are to it.
This is just my opinion, but to me, the stealth predator figures are a waste of money. Perhaps if it was partially stealthed, but otherwise your better to just point to nothingness and pretend it's a stelth figure. ;)
Are there any pics of the real stealth wolf?

I agree
Which date is these figures coming out?
cant wait to get mine i ordered both masked and unmasked i am sooo ordering stealth
Does anyone have any idea why Neca is waiting so long before releasing any of its Wolf figures?
I'll definitely pick them up as soon they hit..
I would also love for another alien that maybe came with a broken stasis tube, face hugger and chestburster.
Wolf looks great... exept for the mask. Kinda looks cheap.
where is everyone ordering these things from? ???
Cornerstone Comics, Ebay, Amazon, etc.....
I got mine from toywiz
Despite some missing some useful POA, the Wolf figures can't be passed up. There is just too many useful weapons ;D.
When are these bad boys going to show up? >:( I'm angry >:( Me destroy >:(

Go back a few pages, like to page 5 or 6, you'll see some NECA released.
I saw those but I was wondering if anyone on this forum had the figure and could post some pictures of the figure outside of the box. Like with there camera.

Dude they haven't even came out yet.
I figured but I live in Arziona so I don't get shit really but I also thought it might be out because of the those NECCA boxed pictures so I didn't know if they were or not. Sorry. :P ::)

Anyone else fear that the Predator's legs won't be able to move forward? In the pictures they seem to be able to move to the side a bit, and be positioned straight up for standing.
I'm think the thighs can move,I don't remember.
Wolf has swivel thighs, which would mean them going side to side, not forward and back. I think that would be an articulation point for hips.

Hope the WOLF has as much articulation as the ALIEN WARRIOR. ;D

Wolf looks... pretty small.
The unmasked figure though looks good in those pics. It doesn't look like it smells something strange like in the early box pics. It looks like it's mad, which is better. I hope mine come on Monday.
Congrats to your haul bro !
I'll get the masked Wolf for sure !
I'm glad they're not as tall as the Aliens. Especially the Predalien should be bigger than him.
It's a shame I'll have to wait so long till they're available over here... :(

Well, I finally caved in today and ordered both the masked, and unmasked.
So, along with having ordered the Hot Toys Wolf figure a long time ago... I think it's clear to determine who my favorite Predator of the franchise would be.
:D
I'll pick 'em up on Friday. Tis payday woot.
I cant wait to get mine.

I so want these figures :)
I just wish those mandibles were thinner and closed better..
But I will pick them up as soon as I find them. =P
What the hell is up with that seam?

That's way too badass.
he he i allready got both of mine hehe :D
So like I asked, what the f**k is up with that seam?
Honestly, it makes it look like shit to me, is there an easy way of fixing it?
I don't think it's on all the figures.
Man I sure hope not, I mean, I'm glad I ordered mine, but it still has me a little iffy.
I will say though, aside from that, Neca has made me a fan of their stuff.

So can anyone here post a side by side comparison of the mask and unmasked preds? I'm not entirely sure i can fork out for both of the variations, so I'd love to see some nice photos on which to form an opinion.

Ahh yea it looks shity, but a friend of mine fixed it with something called greenstuff its used for figures in the worldplaying world like warhammer and warhammer 40.000 he made a small line of greenstuff and put in the pred, and when it had dryed he just painted it the same colour, now you cant see it any more.
btw i got mine from cornerstore comic they are sending out allready, thats why i allready got mine.
and btw what ticks me of is that the masked only got one shouldercannon its kinda odd i think.
Honestly, it's that problem with Wolf's face that keeps me from preordering series 3... I love the version with the helmet, but I REALLY loved the maskless version before. Kinda sucks that it looks like they just glued his face onto his head.
Before I buy series 3, I'm gonna have to wait for loose pictures to see if they did the same thing to that figure too.
But I did order from CornerStone too, do they send you an e-mail when they ship them out? I ordered about 4-5 days ago, and my card was charged, but all I got was e-mail saying it was processed.

Yes i got a mail from them, saying when the packing will be shiped (date) but they will handle preorders first. you can see that on there page, it says processing pre orders.

Ah, thanks for the info. It's cool of them to do all of the preorders first, more sites ought to fill those completely before shipping out regular orders.
I was just wondering because it was my first time ordering from them, thanks again!
would be sweet if NECA made a wolf figure that you could take his mask on and off ;D

Just ordered my Wolf from darkfigures. Post pictures when I get him.
Well, I take back all the IF's I had about this guy, I got both figures today in the mail, and they are absolutely gorgeous. The seam on the head is very easy to look past, and they look great in hand.
I also splurged on the McFarlane AVP Boxset, the one that came with unmasked P1, and an Alien. I can't decide whether or not to open em up... whatcha think I should do?
Don't. Mcfarlane's Predator stuff always looks best packed.
Plus it won't break and fall over as much. ^ :P

open them i dare you!! ;D ;)
Ah, I did. The only thing that sucked was the Predator's knees and elbows having no articulation, but it's pretty cool that Wolf is in scale with him. Looks good with them standing side by side.

I have a quick question. Are the NECA 8" toys articulated? Meaning can you move the arms and legs as opposed to the McFarlane statue-type figures?
Thanks guys.

The most articulated one is the Alien Warrior. That thing is crazy, you can get it in any pose you want. The predalien is the least articulated one, you can only move the head, it's balljointed shoulders, and cut hands.
The predator is somewhere between the two, with balljointed neck, balljointed shoulders, cut biceps, hinged knees, and some sort of articulation on the ankles. I think what limits it the most is the lack of hinged elbows, I have no idea why they didn't include this as it is such a basic articulation point.

You forgot the 4 Cut joints in the Predalien's legs and it's bendable tail.
There may not be many poses it allows, but it looks fantastic in the ones you get.

Is Series 2 out in the UK right now?
And what about the articulation?
Does the figure has as much as the alien warrior?
I got Alien and Chet.
Alien is great, the design even looks better as a toy.
Chet looks really good, but is not poseable.

hey, thanks a bunch for the info. guys. I have got to get some of these.
I think the worst things about the the unmasked Neca Wolf toy is how the whip falls apart in two so easily,it should have been all one piece but no,and the second thing would be is that the unmasked Neca Wolf toy and the masked Neca Wolf toy have no button to have the wrist blades come in and out,instead you go to put your fingers on the wrist blades so they can pop in and out. The final worst things is how the chest is stuck in an angle,and also how the arms don't movie inwards and outwards,the burnt green side of Wolf's face was lacking a bit of green acid,and last would be the cleaner kit. I was expecting that you could take it out and open it to see the body repair tools but nooo. I got both of the masked and unmasked figures yesterday.
The thighs don't move inwards and outwards as well.
Hey Gang Where can I buy series 2 & when is it going to come out to stores?
Thanks.
So the blades are just like the way Hot Toys does theirs? I always liked that better then the way McToys did theirs with that big push button.
^That is correct man.

I will get after taking more pics, I'd have a ton to show, but I'm using a new camera... I bought a Kodak 12 megapixel yesterday, looks like I'm going out to buy a tripod too, lol.
There IS green acid burns on his face, it was just the angle, and the flash in that picture.
I can't wait until the next series is released, Neca really impressed me!

Well if you live in the U.S. you probably couuld find them in stores like Hot Topic, Suncoast, or you could order from TISINC99.com. Very good store. They should be in stores now or if not within the next few weeks.
I DON'T know anything about UK releases or where to buy them, sorry.
i have both masked and unmasked and the sculpts are great but they fall down too much they are top heavy and the whip is kinda gay but i glued it so i am happy
If you have both of the appropriate hands on whichever Wolf figure it is,the whip stays put better in both hands,I tried it and the whip didn't fall apart at all. So do try it. Even though the whip is made up of two pieces,the reason it falls apart is because the curved part moves down resulting in half of the whip disassembling,however it doe's look better when it is stretched out by the use of both hands. Another beef I have is how the handle of the whip is the brown that it is,it makes it look a bit lame,a darker brown or grey black would have been good to use on it.
>:(
Finally got my NECA AvP:R Series 2 figs today.
This series features the Wolf Pred in masked and unmasked versions.
NECA really has done a fantastic job with these figures. While not as poseable as some would have liked, I'm not a big fan of huge amounts of points of articulation in a figure.
These have just enough poa's to get a few really cool poses. They also come with a great bunch of accessories. The whip and the converting plasma cannon/plasma pistols are my favs.
The only big drawback on these would be the obvious seam line in the head of the unmasked Pred and the bio helm/armor color difference in the masked version.
But, they really are just damn cool figs. Can't wait for the "roaring" version of the Wolf in series 3.
On to the pics...

Mine still have to arrive, do they come with a base like the alien and predalien?
Ok after the snafu with my first order that was canceled I ordered again today from NECA the unmasked version. I was a little torn I could have got both masked and unmasked for $45.99 + 8.99 shipping and handling from another seller or just the unmasked version from Neca for only 16.99 + 6.45 shipping and handling. I want both because I like the masked version better for the face, but I like the accessories on the unmasked. I don't I went for the cheaper deal because I don't like it when the sellers jack the price up $10, $15 + if you tried to buy them seperately.
Hey you should of went to cornerstorecomics.com They have both avalible for 28$ & 9$ shipping.
Good luck.

Eww, that seam line is really putting me off.
So buy the masked version?
Or, wait and see if the other unmasked one has the seam.

Nice Pics! Good lighting and background.
QuoteEww, that seam line is really putting me off.
It puts me off a little too, but I'm pretty sure I know why they did it that way. Basically except for the head the two Series 2 Wolf's have identical parts(with a few different accessories). If you look at the head of the unmasked Wolf the face would be way to big to mold a correct fitting mask for. The mandibles are too wide, should be closer. They had to reshape the whole front of the face to make the mask look right. Easy solution to mass producing 2 similar figures with different faces and make the front part where you can easily make it a masked or unmasked version. Interchangeable front pieces to the head. The masked version has the seem too, you can see it in the side pics, it just isn't distracting because the mask covers it.

Those are great photos Adam! What are you putting behind it?
hey do the handles come off the cannons, and grat pics. My comic store should be getting these in within a month. Atleast i hope, he's been telling m next week that he'll have them since Valentines Day.
Basically, it's just a sheet of fabric (I think it's silk) that's hung over a piece of thick foam board, both bought a typical department store. The camera I used was my new Kodak Easyshare 12 megapixel.
I do believe the handles come off, but I'm not 100% sure, it certainly does look like they do, but I've been a little afraid of messing them up if I tried.
gues I'll be the first person to try. when I get mine that is.
If you'll pay attention to my pics, you'll see that the handles come off for the Plama cannon verion...and the shoulder attachment comes off for the Plasma pistol version.
Wow, Wolf looks pretty good, I didn't like Neca's packaged pic of him,
but it does look nice in Adam's and Sabres pics,
I'll have to check it out,
the figures Are awesome!
but, how does it goes with the plasma cannons and the battery pack on his back?.

If you'll pay attention to my pics, you'll see that the handles come off for the Plama cannon verion...and the shoulder attachment comes off for the Plasma pistol version.
I just tried with mine, and it took a little bit of force, but the handles came right off! Looks WAY better now too. I'll have to post some updated pics soon.

Yeah I see it now. thanks Sabres.
I think now, with all the pictures, the only thing I don't like is the hunched over chest. It just looks odd. But other than that, these are some damn good figures.
That seam thingy can be fixed, with greenstuff and paint, the greenstuff and paint can be pick up from every store that deals with warhammer stuff.
...few more pics...

I'm going to have to make a pose with the Alien and Predalien when I get mine.
Can anyone set some pics of the accessories apart?
OK i've got them too...A bit late but Yeah that's Holland!
The figures are looking way better than on the pics,
I will post some pics too.
Still haven't gotten mine yet. Ordered them last monday morning from Corner store comics & nothing.

Still waiting for my order to ship as well.
Play.com apparently stock all of the NECA figures. I ordered the Hyrbrid, the Warrior and the masked Wolf at the same time... however, Wolf is now showing up as pre-ordered ahead of release on March 29th??? Was series 2 delayed by a month?

Who knows? This is getting a bit ridiculous.
You know we wouldn't have this problem finding out when they come out if NECA either sold them on their website & or told us when they were coming out & where.
The best place to get them is Cornerstorecomics.com. $28.99 for the pair. Masked Wolf individually is sold out. They are a good price compared to other online retailers. Not to mention it took only 5 days from when my order was placed to be on my doorstep. I already ordered Series 3 from them so I dont have to wait so long. Hope this helps.
Yea man Cornerstorecomics.com is the best place to get them. I don't know if it's like this now but a little while ago I went to Amozon & they wanted... I think 90$ for both of them. Cornerstorecomics only wanted 38$. Thats with shipping. I just found out that mine got here yesterday but it was on the wrong UPS truck. I'm supost to be getting it today.
Can someone set some pics???
I just found out that I'm not geting them til tomorow because someone at UPS said that my address is no good. I got it fixed but I have to wait another day.
maybe my comic store'll get them tomorrow.
I'm glad I ordered direct from NECA, I've been tracking mine it is already half way to my house. It entered the regional distribution center today so I except it tomorrow! ;D
D-DAY. The hunters have landed. I just got the two wolf predator toys & I have to say........ THEIR AWWWWWESOME. You know what? I've got to go play with them right now and..... Wait... I'm a grown man playing with toys.... I need syciatric help..... But first.....
My local supplier hasn't even got them in yet... :P
Dude just get them at Cornerstorecomics.com. unlease if you live on the west coast then your going to have to wait at least a week. but at least you'll have them. Oh and don't worry I found a shrink today... A little expensive though.
I received them today, and I have to say they're completely awesome! The only problem with them is I wish the masked wolf figure came with 2 plasma cannons instead of one. Thanks Cornerstone Comics!
Got mine too! ;D They really are solidly built a lot more so than the McFarlane ones. I had a little trouble taking the handles and support arms off my plasma casters. :'(They were in there very snug. I was little confused on how they came off and darn near broke one before I figured it out. Even if I had broken the piece I could have used it as the pistol variant. I can tell I weakened the piece a little but it didn't break. Good sturdy construction considering I was torquing it the wrong way. I tried a couple poses. One with the pistol in the left hand and whip in the right, which was a little hard to get in the hand as well. I ended up putting both plasma casters on the back and I swapped out the closed hand with the open one. Both looked really good. The wristblades worked really nice. Not many complaints except for the plasma arm being a little hard to figure out how to remove. I would have liked a little more articulation like torso twist, and the left arm only moves so high because the armor has a small connector piece. But it has two major pluses- stands well and is sturdy. You could handle it quite a bit without fear of breaking it. The seem doesn't bother me so much on the head. the front part of the piece is obviously a little different in color to the back of the head.
Get my set tommarro! Woot woot!
Can someone please set some pics..?
Just noticed yesterday that my Wolf only has three mines on his bandolier while all the screens of him I've seen have four. I'm pretty sure it didn't fall off when I took him out because I checked the immediate area. Hadn't really moved him much. Must have fell off before he was packaged.
I rodered mine from unitoyzone.com but they don't arrive to the store til a month from now...... :-[

Yes, the wristblades do go in and out. You may need to give yours a bit of a pull to get them out.

Why does your unmasked Pred plasma caster look like the one in the movie, but mine looks like an uzi gun. ??? :'( ??? :'( ??? :'(
The 'handles' in the front, and the back of the cannons DO come off.
Give em a good tug, and they'll come right out. No more uzi-ness.

All the credit goes to Sabres! I didn't know the handles detached until he mentioned it! :D
you can see it on the photo's of NECA too.
I never realized how much bigger the Aliens are to the Predator and till I set mine up next to Wolf. I have Wolf in a full standing position and my alien in a crouch and it is still as tall!

Those pics are kick ass pics i really like number 4 the lighting is just awsome.
Thanks!
I use a really 'ghetto' method for taking pictures. A while back, I was out at Wal-Mart and saw some small LED lights that are on 'goosenecks' with a clip at the other end. They give off a really clean light, with almost a blue-ish tint. So I just tried taking pictures with (no flash) no, or very low light other than the LEDS. Since they're on goosenecks, they're easy to bend and adjust.
They're only about a dollar in the books and magazine sections. I love em though, wouldn't use anything else!

I like the blue lighting! Do have some red LEDs too?
Actually right now, all I have are 3 blueish ones, I would have gotten others, but I really only bought them to read with... kinda stupid luck lol. One day I just got bored, turned out the lights and hovered one of my Hot Toys Scar and it looking pretty much amazing.
But I can certainly look for red and a give it a shot!
Those shots are badass, AdamBombOi ;D
Just wish mine would ship from play.com. Gah! My collection feels incomplete. Although I've no idea where to put the thing :P
Dudes that seam isn't all that bad. When I got him it was nicely blended in with the reast of the head.
My plasma casters still can't get off. Now my right plasma caster is breaking. How do you guys do it. Do you pull it upwards,leftwards,or right wards???? :'( :'( ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? :'(

You must be having the same problems I had! :o Look back a few posts. I suggest you look at some screens of other peoples Wolf. There is a little hinge that comes off from the side.

I so want these figures :)
Wow, the second picture really shows off how movable the legs are. So I assume they have some good range of movement?
They have a pretty good range of movement, yes :)
I heard that the legs can't move back and forth though, same with the arms.
Is that true? :(
No its not true, I don't know who the hell told you that, most probably a mcfarlane rep ;D Anyways, judging from the pics dude, your question should pretty much be answered.
It wasn't really told to me, but I read it in someone's review a couple pages back.

Can't tell you about the Predators because I don't have them yet. But the mouths of both Aliens open and close. It's one of the greatest features of them. ;)

Please tell me Masked Wolf comes with a stand or base or I'll be pissed off...
Looks like your pissed.
...they aren't hard to stand. Both of mine have stood fine since day one.

Yeah the marketing pics you see online of him have there shoulder cannons painted brown, but they are actually all silver. I was bit disappointed with that.

So my shop wont have these in until tomorrow. That sucks. ::)
I'm not really bothered about these figures now, more interested in the HT versions.
jeah that sucks..series 3 is coming..may??
Yup. May it is.
Anyway, my Wolf came today. I ordered from TFAW.com and it shipped right away. I got it in a week.

There he stands, atop the Lament Configuration, in front of my three absolute favorite movies: Casshern, City of Lost Children, and Silent Hill. It is here, in my dorm room, he will stay... until I go home this weekend and get my predalien and two alien warriors to display him with. ;D (He fell backwards off of the box right after I took the photo... but it's all good... He's okay...)
I rated it "good" because some of the accessories pissed me off... I didn't really want the unmasked, but I'll have to get him for some of the accessories, the staff is cheaply painted and a bit short, and I spent a good 30 minutes trying to get the damn shoulder mount off of the plasma caster to have him hold it as a hand gun. The articulation is a little limited too, but I wouldn't have docked it for that. It's a great looking figure.
Just got Masked Wolf. Looks cool. At col now though so can't get it out but we'll see later.
Can someone make some new pics please..?
It doesn't come with any base! Devastated.
You're kidding... :P
just took out the unmasked pred. seam aside, pretty impressive

I dont like the face to be honest.
I think it looks pretty cool. 8)
But do you've got the Masked version too?
It looks much better when it isn't in a bright light, the eyes are great, I really love the eyes.
It doesn't bother me that it doesn't come with a base because it stands very well without one.
The posablity on these sucks. Unfortunately. :-\ Not keen on this series so far.
I finally got a Wolf figure today, it was the unmasked one, its annoying, I ordered this only 2 days ago, I received it today, but I am still waiting for the other 2 I ordered (from another seller) and its nearly 7 weeks now, he sent me a message saying he's only just got them in stock last week, I might give him a few weeks before saying something, still a pain in the ass though.
As for what Hicks said above, I agree with him and more, the NECA series is starting to bore me, there's very little of them, and most of them are Wolf figures, they should make an adjustable Predalien or some humans like the cost guards or something.
But so far I am liking the Wolf figure.

Yeah, there the ones, they also took ages with the Alien warrior, but not this long, there really taking the piss though, we should get free postage if there going to take this long, I am normally careful and check sellers before buying, but at the time, it was the only seller on eBay.
how long have you been waiting?
UPDATE:I got the wolf figures today ;D took a while but now I can open one of them, I can't wait :D
Finally both my Wolves arrived today. Masked version is awesome, already opened and posed it. I don't know about unmasked, I might sell it, with HT Wolf, I don't want to have 3 wolves :/
Already posed 'em. ::) Mines stuck in pretty much the same pose.
I have the unmasked Wolf open, impressive accessories when compared to the McFarlane AVP series, some joints are a little stiff but that's ok, I think its a overall good figure, but do we really need 4 Wolfs?
Took a couple of pics:

Thanks everyone for the pic compliments! It's really a great figure, way better than what McFarlane did with the AvP series, the detail and the solidness of the sculpt is amazing.
And yes, it is a soap opera :-*

:D I wasn't watching it, I was watching the news (dude with the suit) :P
Here's a review with some nice pics
http://www.figures.com/databases/action.cgi?setup_file=fignews2.setup&category=actionfigures&topic=65&show_article=564&nl=1
yes,, those are some pretty good pics on figures.com,,
But the white background is bad. It looks different?
Well, I said I wouldn't do it, but I did. I went and ordered the Un-masked Wolf. I initially plan to use him just for the weapons to customize on another Predator figure. But, I'll see if I like it first.
Ordered the masked varient, but play sent me the unmasked.
Couldn't be bothered to send it back.
Cool sculpt, but I think the Warrior is by far the best of the bunch.
Just bought myself the masked version. Got it in a good bad-ass pose with the hand cannon aimed out and the spear in the other hand. 8) I think the McF Predators are better looking but at least Wolf can stand. Be getting the open mouthed version next.
Is it just me or is the paint to easy tocome off???
It's fine with me. Then again, I don't play with mine. ;)
Here are two pictures I took of my Wolf, got him about a week ago.

Wolf vs Bats,Nice pic ;D
Thanks, as much as I love Batman, I think he's out of his league with The Wolf.
I Just Ordered my masked wolf today. I am also gonna order the unmasked with his mouth open if he has the weapons that the normal unmasked has. By the way, does the paint come off easy?
I ordered my Masked Wolf today :) I can't wait for it to arrive.

I got my repllacement unmasked Wolf yesterday, my other fell off shelf and his leg snapped, nothing else on him broke, not even a paint scratch. I think he would have been fine if hadn't landed on his leg. Concrete floors with carpet are pretty hard. Also I got my masked Wolf! Yay.
I have been waiting for only 4-3 days and it seems like forever! SATs preperation at school for the entire week don't seem to help. I just get so bored :-\

I would so get that just for the facehugger and chestburster! Wolf would just be a bonus. I have too many Wolf's already.

lmao :D
I orderd mine last monday and they still havent came.
I saw both the unmasked and masked Wolf in store the other day and I thought "f**k this, I'm not getting both versions". It's cheap of NECA to not give us a Wolf with removable mask figure. >:(
This is entirely off-topic, but damn do I hate that" >:(" smiley.
...I just felt the need to finally say that.
As for the removable mask issue, they rarely work properly anyway. The MacFarlan ones are bitches to get on an make stay on; the only ones I've seen work are the ones that plug into the face (Hot Toys' 4-inch figure series).
True, but removable, alternate heads seem to work okay. It's just a little tacky... Personally, that's what I wish they did.
I could make a stand for my PA if they made an interchangable head version, then I'll make it look like Chet is standing above a beheaded Wolf!! 8)

TOTALLY! Another reason to have interchangeable heads.
:D I have Masked Wolf but I hope to get the Unmasked too.
I have the Unmkased figure. After fiddling around a bit with his skull necklace, it snapped in half. (And since it's so thin I can't re-glue it) His right hand is a bit loose, but other than that, the figure rocks IMO. He stands up fine for me, and I didn't really want tons of articulation. (If we got too much he'd be super loose after a while) If you get the hips and swivel hips in the right spot, he stands up fine. The head-seam doesn't bother me at all, though it does look a bit ugly. A minor nitpick; I wish the whip would've been wire, so you could bend and pose it. That would be sweet. The other Unmasked Pred I have (still packaged) is missing the plug joint on one of his plasma-casters, also, which was a bit of an annoyance for me. The Wolf Predator is the only Neca figure I own, because no stores around here sell them. (cost me $40 shipped online for two Unmasked Preds) I would still like to find the Alien and PredAlien is stores, and I'm hoping to get the Series 3 open-mouth version. I like the figure overall. Just seems a bit fragile to me that others. I usually only collect Hasbro figures (Marvel, SW Clones, 25th Joes), and Hasbro figures are (obviously) much more durable than Neca's. I'm not used to owning a "collectible" so I was probably a bit rough on it at first.
I also did a video review on it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXOK5ZdmX6Q (Prepare for awfullness)
