Toys R Us Exclusive ReAction Heat vision Predator Released

[mj3141x]

I picked one up yesterday at my local TRU and I really like it. I think it's a great figure and it looks awesome on the shelf with the other Alien and Predator figures. It's funny, I like the repaints a lot better than the basic Predator figures. This one and the cloaked Predator really look good. They did a really nice job making the heat vision thing work.

I'll also mention the card art shown doesn't exactly match the final. This mockup says "(MASKED)" whereas the final says "(THERMAL VISION)" and also there's a giant "Only at ToysRUs" sticker on the front. I kind of wish they had gone with a photo featuring the thermal vision from the film instead of this particular shot of the Predator though.

Also, I have dubbed this figure: Push-up Pop Predator.

But he was never seen like this in the film except for his hand when he picked up that dead scorpion.

Trix Yoplait Predator. Gotta have it to go along with the two other variants.

i love the color idea, if only it were one of the 7 inch neca versions.

I have to figure they'll eventually do a thermal vision predator just for kicks. I'm happier with the chosen path of going to Kenner and comics for more figures, maybe later we'll get some video game predators.

Wasn't there a game where you could see other predators with the thermal vision?

I believe you can do that in all 3 AVP games. I'm like 93% sure that's right.

I would have been fine with that. Or even stretch things a little to show one of the other characters in thermal vision. I just think a little bit of thermal vision in the photo would have been a nice touch.
