I've got two of them (the City Hunter and... one of the other PREDS) in my pile of loot at BBTS, though ever since early images I've always thought the muzzle area on the City Hunter's mask was considerably dis-proportioned. I know I've heard people complain about the accuracy of NECA's City Hunter helmet - are you saying that Hiya's sculpt gives a more accurate representation?
These are ****ing terrible

Stay clear from these
Alas, it is too late for me. I've had them in my pile of loot for awhile now. Oh well, we win some, we lose some. Like you said, only $20 a pop.
These are ****ing terrible
I just got them, they have the gummiest rubber feeling plastic in the joints, everything is completely glued together by the paint, I can't pose these things for the life of me.
I'm VERY careful with my figures, since I started collecting I've only broken 2 figures, that's all, and they were figures known to be brittle, the first Neca Jungle Hunter and another Neca predator I don't remember which one it was.
I bought 3 of these, the first one as I took it out of package and I was trying out the joints, carefully as usual, I turned the left ankle and it ripped apart like it was a gummy bear.
Then the second one I opened up did the same thing from a bicep :
Wtf?
I'm afraid to even open the third one.
Stay clear from these unless you want to gamble $20, which is cheap anyway, but even Hasbro has much better QC, this is retarded.
I mean they look really cool but what's the point if you can't even make them stand because everything is stuck together?
If you open them, just be gentle with the joints, if they feel stuck, don't force them at all, I don't know how to unstuck paint, maybe acetone? But you'd risk removing the rest of the paint on the figure.
Joints aren't brittle per say, but the pegs and such are veeeery rubbery.
