They keep claiming it's going to happen, just a while down the road. I'm curious to see if the SH Monsterarts version will be in scale with the NECA stuff.
I bought both these guys for 20 $ each years ago, looked them up they're ridiculous now from what I've seen crazy , still got unmasked in the packaging
At the toys r us where I live they still sell masked wolf, and they are still fully stocked with the Christmas exclusive Dutch and Jungle Hunter two pack, and have unmasked berserker, and have nightstorm and have tons of aliens....tons.
I would totally go for the City Hunter. He's the most iconic of the set you mentioned. Plus, they should be redoing the Wolf in the next year or so, so I would wait for that one.
Cool. I have both of these. The original masked release is my favorite. I noticed that the re-release has a brighter painted mask. Wolf is my favorite pred character in the movies. It's true how he can't hold his disk good. lol You got all the good points. Even about the old neca style. I was thinking the same about some new AVP figures too.
I've had the unmasked figure for a while now, I think I got him in 2009 at an FYE. However, last summer I found both the masked and a slightly different unmasked Wolf at Toys R Us in great numbers. I guess NECA re-released them. Because of this and the fact that the movie wasn't that popular (or good) I'm guessing they won't be redoing him anytime soon. Hell, I want them to redo their Part 7 Jason Voorhees waaaay before they get back to this guy. I honesly think I like the unmasked a bit more.
Yeah, NECA went nuts with the variants on these guys. I kind of wanted the SDCC version just because of the facehugger and chestburster, but hopefully we'll get some with the new Aliens line.
Unfortunately both of the shurikens came off and disappeared somewhere. Still can't find them - shame neca doesn't sell individual replacement accessories.
hey OutsideTheBoxReviews I would just like to ask are NECA defiantly re-making the AVP Aliens and Predators figures and the Requiem ones too because I am currently debating whether to get the current ones or not. Great review by the way too!
Thank you! I would definitely go with the classic. Better articulation, very nice sculpt, from a better movie, just overall a better figure. There should be an anniversary release of the classic predator coming within the next few months I believe, it will be the same basic figure with the newer style leg articulation, which should be a winning combo!
Sadly, eEbay may be your only hope. I would keep an eye on Amazon to see if the price drops. The only other thing I can really suggest is to check out any local comic shops near you (or if you travel at all) and see what you can dig up. Sometimes you can find long forgotten gems at good prices if you are lucky.
Ggggrrrrr! my combistick broke yesterday! I woke up about 2:30 in the morning after hearing a thud and after turning the light on, saw my masked wolf on the floor and his combistick snapped. ebay hunting now....
Hey I know this was a long time ago but did you ever manage to find a replacement for your wolf predator? I'm trying to find the whip accessory that came with that particular figure so I can give it to my stalker predator. I was wondering if you had a spare? A response would be greatly appreciated.
Though I wish NECA would do an AVP line, I don't think they own the rights..McFarlane still owns them as far as I know..But I could easily be wrong.........
BOX , I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU,, MCFARLANE PREDATOR JUST CAN'T MAKE IT... NECA SHOULD REMAKE IT... BUT THE BATTLE ALIEN AND GRID ALIEN LOOK FINE... JUST THAT PREDATOR WITH EXTRA BLADE AND WEIRD LOOKING... NECA SHOULD REDO THE SCAR CELTIC AND CHOPPER!
Hell no! lol. Honestly, I would never pay that much for a 7" figure, but that's a personal preference. I would maybe shoot for around $30, maybe $40 if you MUST have him.
I wish the masked predator had the whip and bladed shuriken and 2nd plasma cannon. BY the way, the story line of avpr sucked, but the action scenes were superb.
Unmasked is the worst. That face piece looks like its ready to pop off. Not sure neca was all into this fig. And the limited movement was horrible. I love all my predators except unmasked wolf
I wish NECA would do an updated version of the Wolf Predator. As bad as the film was, I really liked this design of Predator.
They keep claiming it's going to happen, just a while down the road. I'm curious to see if the SH Monsterarts version will be in scale with the NECA stuff.
I hope neca will do an ultimate wolf figure like the monsterarts one but bigger
I bought both these guys for 20 $ each years ago, looked them up they're ridiculous now from what I've seen crazy , still got unmasked in the packaging
Not anymore you don't, check your collection, I climbed in your window last night
Waiting for ultimate wolf predator :p
We all are, man. 😅
@flash 22 Deadass? Did NECA say so?
@flash 22 well that's unfortunate. I hate to be that guy, but could you link the tweet?

LEGO GUY I hate you so much
You gotta go the day after the shipments I think it's Saturday every two weeks for me but I havnt seen anything.
Figure Pops is kind of weird
Excellent review! Wolf predator was one of my first!
I can't wait for the ultimate wolf!!! 2018!!
Alfie Bell me too
they said it will be either late 2018 or even 2019 now.. :/
This seems more like a statue then a figure and im not saying it bad or anything its a beauty but id prefer to wait til we get a new version
I would totally go for the City Hunter. He's the most iconic of the set you mentioned. Plus, they should be redoing the Wolf in the next year or so, so I would wait for that one.
They have said that they will be making figures from both AvP movies, so I would say it is safe to wait for the new ones.
Cool. I have both of these. The original masked release is my favorite. I noticed that the re-release has a brighter painted mask. Wolf is my favorite pred character in the movies. It's true how he can't hold his disk good. lol You got all the good points. Even about the old neca style. I was thinking the same about some new AVP figures too.
i dig these for what they are, best as a nice display piece, nothing too dynamic but the details are very nice
That's what he said?

They never re-released these. There are 7 different versions of wolf. The slightly closed mouth is not the same as this one.
For me although the movie was bad I think the design of the predator in the movie was cool
Yeah, NECA went nuts with the variants on these guys. I kind of wanted the SDCC version just because of the facehugger and chestburster, but hopefully we'll get some with the new Aliens line.

I wonder why most of reviewer break their neca
Is it true neca product is extremely fragile
Yeah
I wish Neca would do a ultimate wolf preator I think it would be awesome, I own these myself, and about 5 of the ultimates
That's hard for me to say. I like both looks for different reasons.
hey OutsideTheBoxReviews I would just like to ask are NECA defiantly re-making the AVP Aliens and Predators figures and the Requiem ones too because I am currently debating whether to get the current ones or not. Great review by the way too!
Martijn446 told me to subscribe just as I did before. Great review Martijn446 and Outsidetheboxreviews.
Thank you! I would definitely go with the classic. Better articulation, very nice sculpt, from a better movie, just overall a better figure. There should be an anniversary release of the classic predator coming within the next few months I believe, it will be the same basic figure with the newer style leg articulation, which should be a winning combo!
I almost died when he called the cleaner kit a backpack and then called it kit

Outside when do you think a BETTER version of these characters
That sucks. I will admit, I have a few super glued items in my collection from similar incidents.
where can I pick up the xenomorph Predator action figure..
Though I wish NECA would do an AVP line, I don't think they own the rights..McFarlane still owns them as far as I know..But I could easily be wrong.........
BOX , I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU,, MCFARLANE PREDATOR JUST CAN'T MAKE IT... NECA SHOULD REMAKE IT... BUT THE BATTLE ALIEN AND GRID ALIEN LOOK FINE... JUST THAT PREDATOR WITH EXTRA BLADE AND WEIRD LOOKING... NECA SHOULD REDO THE SCAR CELTIC AND CHOPPER!
Just got the masked wolf in the mail and I have the unmasked coming :)..
Why are necas predators tilted to the side?
how much was it i went to big bad toy store and it is 75 and on amazon its 22
the blades extend farther than that
I have this not like pose....wolf need remade to same type as all wave
Wheh....?
I think wolf is old
The Unmasked has wayyyy more weapons than the masked which doesnt make sense
thank you very much
Hell no! lol. Honestly, I would never pay that much for a 7" figure, but that's a personal preference. I would maybe shoot for around $30, maybe $40 if you MUST have him.
Mine won't stand up
Oh n continue the line they did
I wish the masked predator had the whip and bladed shuriken and 2nd plasma cannon.

There fuckin awesome
i have the masked
THAT US A LIE OUTSIDE!!!!! AVPR ROCKS
To bad Toys R Us closed down
Yeah....thankfully Target and Game Stop are kind of picking up the slack for NECA stuff as far as mass market goes. But it's not quite the same
C
Unmasked is the worst. That face piece looks like its ready to pop off. Not sure neca was all into this fig. And the limited movement was horrible. I love all my predators except unmasked wolf
the mask is just too bright
Nope
