Quote from: Mike's Monsters on Aug 29, 2024, 04:15:53 AM...Sorry if this information is upsetting to you, it seems like it is, but I'm just the messenger. I'm just trying to get the info out there since no official sources will talk about it. There's a reason why NECA doesn't come out and say this stuff, because it would upset folks. And they're also just not allowed to say much.
There's no point in trying to explain it to him Mike. He obviously doesn't understand how a business works or is even bothering to listen to you explanations.
Mostly because his explanations don't make sense in light of other evidence from other businesses.

Like it's extremely clear that NECA is the problem, and apologizing for their bad behavior is really silly. They don't need your "defense" lmao

It's almost like businesses are separate entities with different processes, and licensing conditions vary substantially from IP to IP.

You're being a bit of a fool dude.

Dude, you really have NO clue what you're talking about.

Quote from: Mike's Monsters on Aug 29, 2024, 07:08:47 PMRegarding Randy, as others have mentioned, his opinions on certain films (like AvP and TMNT's third live-action film) have influenced production decisions, though he isn't the sole decision-maker. Despite his preferences, we eventually saw figures from both franchises.
Not A/P/AvP, but I also recall when people ask Randy why NECA never released a figure of Albert Wesker from the RE franchise and his reply was, quoting, because Wesker was a "generic Neo (from Matrix)".  :o  :o  I AM NOT KIDDING.

I remember Randy answering some questions I had about possible future Predators at the time. This was in 2016-2017. At one point he said they had interest in making Dark Blade Clan armor Scarface and Prince Predator. Back then this line has endless possibilities. :( I wanna go back.

If anyone is looking for a better painted body for the City Hunter then I would recommend just getting the Guardian predator and swapping the City Hunter head onto the body. A fun fact:

Did you know that Guardian predators body in the film is an identical mold and paint scheme to city Hunter and the equipment and armor is 1 to 1 exactly the same as City Hunter? That is because they had spare suits leftover of City Hunter after shooting his scenes, so they put it to use with the original concept mask from predator 1987 to make Guardian.

The masked City Hunter head skin color matches the guardian predator exactly so it blends nicely. The only thing that is unique from City Hunter is the right arm does not have netting. However you could just pretend he has multiple sets with variety of different styles of netting.

Awesome never thought about that

Of course, Guardian predator is still a separate character worth having as well 😁.

My next goal is to learn to 3d print so I can make my own custom helmets and gear like LRL customs

I've made custom weapons from nearly scratch, but have yet to try my hand at masks and armor other than painting them. I would love to learn to do it through 3D printing myself as well.

The smaller axe is sculpted entirely by myself, the larger ones, just the blades and a few parts, the rest is used parts from Neca predator weapons.
