It just gets worse with new pictures. Broken tusk looks like they stuck all the left over armor from rejected predator ideas onto an old left over body. Why does he have the Flash bolts on his armor? Why does he have multiple ones? The painted blue/black alien head looks out of place and odd. The groing plate with fpur balls and a random bone stuck on it and tassles, WTF?
NECA excels at respecting the source material. Broken Tusk looks like he stepped out of the 90's Aliens vs. Predator. Compare with the comic books scans below:

Richfield from Dinosaurs when the look at his strange crossed eyes?
Here I agree. I am not a fan of this particular Predator's design. Still, NECA honored it very well. If you don't like it, don't buy it.

Krunomo explained it best:

So there you go.

It wouldn't.
