Not everyone, especially since you can wait until the next release, just like the next iPad.

WOW, Hot Toys really stepped their game up with this Predator. This is my favorite HT Pred yet. Bravo HT.

Wished he come with the alien head the BD version came with. Glad to have this Predator as he's the only version I never got of the Preds I wanted. Never dug HT's first attempt at this figure. Although this one has it's issues it looks better overall to my eyes.

Scratch me from that "everyone" list. Nothing to do with complaints, though. Just no reason to buy "everything" HT releases. I've sold more HT than I have right now. One of them, the original BD P2. Oh yeah! In your face, Hot Toys! I don't need your stinking P2s!!! Heck, someone offer me a decent deal and I'll sale ya any of my HT figs I have right now!

If thats the case, then the silly putty should be included in the accessories
HT just updated the spec pics on their official site.
Speaking of putty and Predators, anyone remember when HT used that blue crap to hold berserkers mask on in their display case at either SDCC or Tokyo TF the other year? They don't hide their "rigging" jobs very well.And yeah, why doesn't HT ever make a Preds left hand for holding accessories? I remember when I had Guardian, I thought it odd that in the movie he holds the spear in his left hand, but the included hands only had a right to hold it? What, Predators can't be south-paws?
It's probably just laziness. They have a perfectly good hand for holding a spear already, so why make a new one?
Wait, scratch that. Their current spear-holding hand is terrible at what it's supposed to do. I was hoping they'd have sculpted a new one for this, but it doesn't look like it.

LOL Awesome.HT just updated the spec pics on their official site.
Man, now that I'm off my iPhone and looking at this on a 27" HD screen, this looks good! Still highly doubt I'll pull the trigger on it, but this sucker got a NICE paint job on it! The armor looks good, too. Everyone complaining that the accessories and some armor pieces are re-dos, you gotta understand, that stuff is all original to this guy. Heck, if you think this is all recycled parts, then if they redo the Guardian figure, you'll hate it. That's basically P2 with different skin tones and the original mask design for the P1.
Hmmmmmm, I got some thinking to do now.

Predator 2 was dumb. But I like this. Maybe I'll bite... maybe.
Yep, looks like its the same old story with Predators getting inadequate hands. I mean look at that - why is it necessary to have 4 different right hands and only 2 left, neither of which look like they could grip anything. Neca is negligent in this area too. WTF! The most iconic P2 images is of him holding spear in one hand, skull in the other. He also holds the spear 2 handed any time he is seen using it. Give us a damned left gripping hand FFS!
Predator 2 was good for what it was ..... the last Predator movie with KPH in it! But, it wasn't nearly as bad as those AVP pieces of trash. Those were like someone threw a pile of crap at a fan, and what came out the other side were the AVP films. Though Wolf was the most bad-ass Predator!!!
