Yeah I had a similar idea I played around with. Basically that Leader killed Nightstorm and cast out the other Super Predators who followed him which created their eternal feud.
Since Nightstorm lived 4000 years ago, I kind of want to imagine Leader survived and is alive in the present timeline, maybe even in Warhammer 40K Emperor Style – with a life support system similar to the Golden Throne, but Leader can awaken and leave the throne again if necessary.
I kind of want Darkhorse or whoever has the license currently to tackle this story. One part starring Nightstorm and Leader in the past, the other with Scavage, Renegade and their teacher Broken Tusk in the present. And of course other Kenner Preds as side characters. Obviously won’t happen, but still.

The same character, the Clan Leader. I would post a picture but I'm not allowed to yet, just google "Kenner Clan Leader".

Yup. They said it fits him more because he's supposed to be bigger than the other Kenner Preds.
Honestly though, seeing the torso articulation on Clan Leader makes me question why they don’t use that style of articulation going forward. They said they only do it for the AvP Preds because their armor conceals the gap between the upper and lower torso, but seeing it on Leader here where you have no chest armor to cover it up I think it looks okay. Certainly not bad enough to not incorporate this extra point of articulation with future Predator figures.
