So i have popped a few of these body types apart for customs. The waist is a single ball peg coming from the hips. The diaphragm is actually a double ball peg connecting the upper and lower torso. In my experience, if you heat the body up with a hair dryer and pop it apart it will get any excess paint out of those joints and free up more range of motion. As far as the legs, they are pegged together through the crotch with a male/female type connection. You can heat those up, pull apart, then you can add super glue or even clear coat to the out part of female type connection and on the male connection and let it harden. When you reassemble it will help with the looseness in that joint.
The smaller size will actually makes sense once you see the movie. As for the mixed reviews... The movie is not going to win any Oscars. But, if you're looking for a throwback to the 1980's with over-the-top action filled with testosterone and one-liners, then you'll have a good time. I actually really liked the movie, because it goes against everything we are currently experiencing in this modern day PC culture.
I'd suggest you skip The Predator. It's entertaining but I feel it's not worth the cost of going to see it in a theater. Great review...I personally like the leaner look for the Preds :)
Now I'm considering picking this figure up. Thanks Anthony for the review! PS I really agree with you we need more bulkier Predators, makes them all around cooler in my opinion (maybe that's why the AVP Preds appealed to me well).
Hey Anthony here is a suggestion. You could try and disassemble the legs and tighten up the pegs. Nail polish or super glue works. But that way there will be no more loose legs :) I did it to my scarface predator and it works a treat
I'm cool with variety in the predator musculature. Honestly, if some are skinny like this, medium, then buff, that would make the different predators look that much cooler on a display. He looks pretty damn awesome, for me tho, I prefer my ghost predator😂
Of all Neca ultimate predators, what should I pick up? I am only able to get one but they all look so cool. I want to get the one that has the least problems but I don't know which...
Are the gauntlets perfectly symmetrical? Specifically, is it possible to use the left gauntlet for the right arm and vice versa? Or are they simply mirrored? I'm just wondering because they practically look symmetrical in your video and I haven't seen any reviewer point this out yet.
How did you get chest ball joint center lower joint so loose like that Anthony? Can't get my fugitive to do that. He's stiff as hell in that area he'll move bits but damn you make look easy.
man, mine came in with loose gauntlet forearms :/ like they barely hang on at the tip of the peg, I have to constantly push them up like sleeves. anyone have a good fix??
From a design standpoint, I'm not a fan of the Fugitive's armor. Certain parts of it look good, like the back of the metal skirtplate and parts of the spinal armor, but overall the design doesn't match. The helmet and wrist bracers have the best design cohesion, and the armor would have greatly benefited from a similarly matching aesthetic, with the smooth organic metal, rather than the screen-like cloth.
Great review,will be getting it.BTW just wanna ask if the attack on titan figma still live up as the best figma in your collection now?I have been experiencing paint scratch from the back emblem and wanna know whether you take this type of problems into accountance when ranking
I actually saw this in a Collectables store once. the Plasma Caster was I Think broken off the Shoulder? I dunno I didn't pick him up and I regret that decision.
This goes to show you that even of the film portion of a franchise is meh...the brand can still thrive through other areas of its production, the art design brought to figure form.
The movie had the predator took off all of the armor except the lower legs and his pants. I would get this if the chest armor come off. But just the arms and the thighs is half ass.
I reccomend the new ultimate ahab predator.
That's a very good one.
Aww man. Ahab's a gorgeous figurine.
I hope they do a Predator Killer armor as well. It was a stupid as hell concept but looked so badass.
Same
FireBomberBassist 🤔 hmmm maybe will get a statue of that either way I’m definitely down
FireBomberBassist Just glue some Shredder parts and GI Joe guns to him.
@@jeggsonvohees2201 Lol
Considering how portable the Marley-Gundam armor was, I wonder why Fugitive didn't just wear it when he abandoned ship?
I just saw the movie and I'm going to get this guy
It's weird that they painted him red, since in the film he's more of a greenish white.
Yeah... that is odd o.O I just rewatched it, and I can attest that he is supposed to be more of a pale green
Probably pulled this design from concept art

He's not small. He towers over the preds from 1 and 2
I meant build wise... He's a bit on the leaner side compared to most Predators, especially if you factor in for the armor.
Nothing to do with 80´s movies. Nothing.
I loved The Predator. It was really good. And I can’t wait to get this amazing figure for Christmas.
Does anyone know when the Assassin predator will be released?
I'd suggest you skip The Predator. It's entertaining but I feel it's not worth the cost of going to see it in a theater.
Great review...I personally like the leaner look for the Preds :)
i just want one thick one. they cant all be built the same.
AnthonysCustoms what THICK???
If they make the super predator or w/e from the movie it should be real thick.
@@AnthonysCustoms fair enough. Neca's 'Upgrade Predator' should fit the bill. I look forward to that review.
Now I'm considering picking this figure up. Thanks Anthony for the review!
PS I really agree with you we need more bulkier Predators, makes them all around cooler in my opinion (maybe that's why the AVP Preds appealed to me well).
Agreed
Where can I get a background prop to go with my Predator and aliens ? I’m new to the action figure scene .
My Fugitive Is very stiff and holds posing very well no problems...They needed his helmet eyes to light up like on the box...Cool Review👍🏾

Is there a way to tighten up the ball hips, where they plug into the crotch? My Spiked Tail and Broken Tusk Preds have loose balls.
This figure in BBTS was been pre order for Nearly a year now
Mine doesn’t ship till October 10th but I like the review man👍

yeah. itd be nice to get some bulky ones.
@@AnthonysCustoms definitely. It would make the predators seem like a legit race having the different body types
Of all Neca ultimate predators, what should I pick up? I am only able to get one but they all look so cool. I want to get the one that has the least problems but I don't know which...
That predator is dope.I am going to get one
Cool looking Predator figure.
Excellent video and figure
Awsome Action Figure review
Are the gauntlets perfectly symmetrical? Specifically, is it possible to use the left gauntlet for the right arm and vice versa? Or are they simply mirrored? I'm just wondering because they practically look symmetrical in your video and I haven't seen any reviewer point this out yet.
Am I the only one noticing that the back of the armour looks a bit like a Face-hugger? With the Gold/Yellow bits, and the sculpt of the spine piece?
How did you get chest ball joint center lower joint so loose like that Anthony? Can't get my fugitive to do that. He's stiff as hell in that area he'll move bits but damn you make look easy.
Came that way
am i able to play with the fig or just pose
They should make a battle damaged Fugitive Predator.
What do you use to edit your videos? Also what sort of camera do you have?
can you interchange the fugitive lab predator head with this one?
I like the two heads. Great designs. Other than that, the figure could have been better imo.

Personally bra I like the ones that are skinny because of the head which is pretty big if you look at it in my perspective
Any help? I have I hard time putting on the other head
Great review,will be getting it.BTW just wanna ask if the attack on titan figma still live up as the best figma in your collection now?I have been experiencing paint scratch from the back emblem and wanna know whether you take this type of problems into accountance when ranking
No. I doubt account for people scratching their figures. The reviews stand.
I totally agree with the bulk thing, man. I wanna see a fat ass Predator. Comes with various types of food.

Hype for the movie!
liked your video bro,I got 1 but its a knock off or a bootleg?
I'm getting the same one for my birthday
I got lucky mine is very thight. Saludos desde Panamá, great video!!!
I miss the Halo reviews.........why just WHY don't they make more Halo action figures😭
I feel your pain man cuz i am a halo fan i
The figure looks good but the movie itself makes me have no interest in it.
Movie was terrible but this guys is cool.
This goes to show you that even of the film portion of a franchise is meh...the brand can still thrive through other areas of its production, the art design brought to figure form.
The movie was garbage. The figure actually looks decent.
Why does everyone call good movies garbage. i thought the movie was great
I don't now that it is normal for my predator's cannon fell of when I got it out the packaging -_-|||
COOL
cool/////////////////////
Your Predator has two left calves.
I just got figer
The movie had the predator took off all of the armor except the lower legs and his pants.
I would get this if the chest armor come off.
But just the arms and the thighs is half ass.
No interest in this one, but I'll definitely be getting the Emissary when he comes out.
I'll be honest. Fugitive had such a poor showing that I can't bring myself to buy him.
Yeah. They make the cool predators die too fast.
Man he is skinny af
Garbage movie cool pred
