I never got the Movie Maniacs Predator figures but I did get the City Hunter with the plug on/off hand from their Alien and Predator mini-line (which were pretty much all just slightly tweaked versions of the MM figures) and that thing broke in so many places over time it's a wonder I didn't just trash it eventually. I also remember thinking the pose he was in was kinda dumb but I'm still happy to have had it when I did, it has a level of sentimental value since it was a gift from family but otherwise it wasn't that good of a figure.

No wonder the Predator thread is dead atm En Sabah...we keep discussing them here...lol.

Argh...I remember those horrible spears....not to mention those laughable hinged parts for the plasma casters would always break off as well if you so much as dropped it once.

I had a deep love for my McFarlane preds, but by the time I finally decided to part with them, man were they a hot mess of glued parts and mods due to broken pieces. All except my Xeno from the AVP two pack, and the egg display that came with it. That figure is still awesome, with not a single broken part, and I actually like the eggs from the Mcfarlane base better than the recent NECA ones.

I am really glad NECA got around to doing these, despite how ridiculous some of the designs for that movie was. I'm not sure what I'm looking more forward to though, this wave, or the upcoming wave with the prototype Big Chap!
