New Photos for NECA's Bad Blood Predator

[Feijai]

I used to collect these Dark Horse Comics back then, and they were awesome can't wait for this one.

I've wanted to see that comic turned into a movie for so long. I guess you could say that it was somewhat hinted at in Predators but none of the bigger Preds where psychotic and blood-thirsty enough.

This'll only be as large as any other Predator from NECA, really just his bone armor gives him a larger silhouette and he does seem to come with a good deal of accessories. I'm personally not interested in this figure/character, the nip ring, half-head face trophies, and bone armor bits just aren't to my liking. However with this figure, the enforcer in series 12, and NECA doing more Dark Horse Predators, I would like to see Broken-Tusk from the original AVP comics.

The Predators in Predators weren't regular Predators to begin with, they were a higher evolution of the species (as wolf to dog, which was used as analogy in the movie) so they aren't Bad Blood they're just doing their thing. A movie based on Bad Blood could be neat, but first we're getting a new installment from Shane Black (who was Hawkins in Predator) which will supposedly take more to the series' roots.

It's been a while. I just remember a Predator fight towards the end.

Indeed there was a fight. The super predator won against the regular, reinforcing the earlier claim of their superiority. Regardless of the outcome, and whether or not the regular predator's injuries tipped the fight out of his favor, it was a neat scene to watch play out. I would likely get a two-pack of Berserker vs Crucified if NECA made one, just repaint the existing Berserker toy to make it closer to the movie and retool the new jungle hunter build for the crucified predator. I don't have a Berserker and online his toys are too ludicrously priced to bother with the idea.

Too bad the Predator in-fighting wasn't the major focus of the movie. That was way more interesting than a bunch of a-hole killers dropped on a hunting planet.

What you didn't like That '70s Serial Killer, The Beaked Mercenary, Laurence Burner-O'-Fish, or the stereotypical Russian? Honestly the only human that I gave any worthy attention to was the inmate psycho, at least he was kind of funny in a weird psycho way.

True but I chalk that up to Walton Goggins being an awesome actor. The Yakuza guy was cool I guess. Or at least the showdown in the field was cool anyway.

Hey, I just picked up this figure and had a quick question. He comes with a small part that looks like an "S" shaped pony tail or dreadlock. I can't figure out what it's for or where it can attach to the figure. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

That dreadlock is an extra accessory. It doesn't attach to the figure as per NECA.

That's weird. I don't get it, but thanks for the info!

It's from the comic, one of the humans accidentally rips off one of his dreadlocks during an encounter and uses it to prove to some other humans that there's a psycho alien hunter thing.
