Am I seeing things or does that not look like the torso of a Predator in the background here? Could just be from AvP but there's some unpainted ones next it.
Looks like it may be , but it could be something else it just kinda resembles a Predator torso from a distance

No, I see it as well. Good eye!
I'm not sure. They could be from either AvP films, but they do look new.
And no tits on them, cool.
I'd say it is.
It could just be my eyes playing tricks on me but it even looks like it has the netting on it.

Same here.
It looks more like Batman armor that isn't done being painted...
Looks like this torso with similar protections on the shoulders:

This could really be for The Predator, i see it with mixed feelings though. I obviously love the original Predator, but i wish they would break up the classic look of the bodys a bit, like they did with Predator 2, look at the NECA variations, most of them look awesome and people like them as well.
I hope they do something like this in The Predator and not just stuck a new head on Wolf's body, but knowing FOX/ADI's recycling history, i wouldn't be surprised at all.
To be fair, the only film that never recycled anything was Predators. Even P2 recycled material for the end of the film (Cameo appearances, sure.)

I don't have much of a problem with that at all, i just don't want the body to look like a carbon copy of wolf when you can spice it up a bit, and that's what they did with Predator 2, but it's Shane's show and we'll see.
That said, it looks like they used Wolfs body rather than Scars, so that's good.

Predators was one big recycled piece of dribble... but yeah those Super Predators designs actually stood out... too bad they felt the need to throw the 'original' predator in there.

He didn't meant the movie as a whole, he just meant Predator accessoires. The reason everything was done from scratch was because KNB EFX didn't have anything they could recycle as the Predator was a whole new creature for them to make.
And i actually liked the classic Predator, you had the best of both worlds in that movie and the Predator Vs. Predator fight was one of the few things that actually was fresh about the movie.
It's just all too on the nose for me... let's just make the exact original Predator design so audiences will know the difference between the two. The others were pretty good and original although they lacked some extra gadgets.
To quote the conversation between Mac and Dillon "I see you...yeah I see it" :o if it's true it looks a lot like the classic predator body type.
My heart won't change rhythm until I see that ADI isn't screwing up the face again with their over rubbery appearance.

Nah, that is clearly a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. :laugh:

Some dreadlocks in the background.

Predator legs. Looks quite Predator 2ish in paint scheme. And we can glimpse the mask which also looks like City Hunter.
Wow, this is the city hunter isn't it?

Makes me wonder, is this really for the Shane Black movie?
Doesn't look like a costume also, maybe a life-size display.
I don't think the subject of the picture is but do you mean the armour on the right?

Yes, that's city hunter's backpack, with the samurai-style shoulder armor.
Aye, that looks like it.
I think we've got a Predator on a bench in this video too: https://www.instagram.com/p/BPtYcGDhhhi/
Wow, good eye guys! No question it is similar to if not the exact same as City Hunter. Could they be using it as a reference for creating something new entirely? Or perhaps that'll be a "background" predator and nod to City Hunter.
I wonder if ADI is dropping little hints like this on purpose?

I feel like that's a 50/50 possibility considering it'd be easy enough to move something before taking a picture or getting the picture from a different angle. At the same time though space could be a factor in a place like that where so many different people are working on different things.
Blind guess,the City Hunter wasn't dead the clan bring him back alive for revenge return with new equipment.
I reckon that if it is like City Hunter, it's more likely to be a reuse of the design ala Predators (Classic) than a reappearance of the original City Hunter.
This could just be someone's pet project though and not directly related to The Predator.
Can't see any Predator in this video. I really like those city hunter -like armor.
Well,
Spoiler
According to the rumors, someone get's Predator tech. Maybe they get it from a dead/dying City Hunter looking Predator?
I think its a Personal Project of the guy, he also made a full scale Alien warrior for himself.
Could also be a promotional thing. Something black will use when promoting the movie.
So could that be the 10ft tall apex alpha Pred in the background??

"Apex alpha pred"
Good lord, this is worse than when the "Super predators" term started.

Doubt it. I don't think Shane and company would want to reuse designs.. then again.... PREDATORS more or less did that with Crucified, so... it could happen.

It's possible but who would create a 10 ft tall sucker like that??

It could be someone's pet project. I do know that KNB did an updated version of the original Alien, and that was done as someone's pet project.

Yeah can't wait to see who actor they got for person responsible for it. 8)

As much as I don't like the idea of a Predator 2.0, well... I hope they don't reuse a previous design. I think we'll get something different. Maybe not as ugly as the Super Predators.
A little size comparison between human, and 10 ft tall pred!!

Interesting.
In the Rage War novels, many of the Predators were described as 9 feet tall. So a foot shorter than that one in the image.
