seems kinda obvious but I never put it together lol.
they brought their money and that was their only role.Well I'd say about 99.9% of people that saw the film don't know and don't care

HEy guyz,i want to pick up an 18" Pred but can you tell me is the netting on the figure really that innacurate?I never really saw it up close but it resembles like the Hot TOys one and i thought that was suppose to be accurate.Am I wrong?^_^
is not that it is inaccurate, the problem is that it breaks very easily.

NECA's is very inaccurate. It is really like the netting bag that some fruits are packed in. However, to be fair HT's isn't accurate either. It's better than NECA's, but it is a tad thick.

Thick is good though.

If this doesn't confirm you're gay than I don't know what could.
I thought we could be a little more mature than that, but I guess not.
thicker nets is what Neca needs. And what Hot toys makes. Even if they are not accurate.
the thicker the net the better, because it will not break. NECA's nets are too thin, they break even by just breathing on them. I don't understand why they had to be so cheap with the netting. they are super thin. I mean, would thicker nets, or nets made of fabric really be that much more expensive? I seriously can't believe that.
anyways kind of interesting that you would associate "thick" with being gay since I Was talking about the nets,
very interesting lar'jazz Thewi ... projecting much?

It's got nothing to do with the size, but rather the material. That plastic crap is brittle and easily breakable.
that's true I guess. JacktheRipper was saying how Hot Toys netting is too thick, but That net will never break (on its own) so it is a lot better. But you might be right as well.

Hot Toys nets are too thick. They used 0.75mm string, but to be accurate scale, they should have used 0.50 string.
0.50 string is more than strong enough. There is no way it would break(unless you use tools and excessive force to purposely break it.)
NECAs problem is that their nets are plastic, therefore break extremely easy.
NECAs net is correct scale(thickness), but are of inaccurate design.
They just switched to thinner netting with the new P2

Cool! I havent seen much of their P2(trying to save money lol!). But I was thinking about the P1 preds when I was talking about the nets.
But that's the thing. I would rather have thick but not accurate netting than the crap NECA has.

Personally, I would rather NECA had accurate design on the net. The thickness is perfect, but the only thing to be improved would be to swap the plastic for string instead.
Thankfully I have no breakages on the cheap netting yet though...and if it does ever break, I will just pretend its natural 'battle damage'!
The netting was ripped in the film so...

Holy $h!!!!!!!!!t
Still with the netting?!
Still!?
It retailed for $70 delivered. The sculpt is an nothing short of spectacular, and the paint far far exceeds what should have been expected at this price point. It huge! AND had separate netting. Not sculpted in or painted on. Separate.
$70 delivered at retail
The $2000 wolf has inaccurate netting and there have been fewer complaints by the people that own it for $2000.00
These are a fraction of the price of all their competitors. Who Also have THICK inaccurate netting with barely a peep.
..............
Rant over carry on
