Scout Predator came in through the mail yesterday. I really like him but he's not perfect. He looks great, as in the movie he's just the City Hunter body with the Jungle Hunter mask and color scheme but I find this combined look appealing. When NECA first revealed their original take on his unmasked head I wasn't feeling it but over time and especially having it in hand I think it's actually very neat. His rifle also came out well, the extendable barrel and adjustable stand are nice touches. I appreciate that they included both collapsed and extended versions of the combi stick even though the character had neither in the movie. He also has open and closed smart discs, I don't know if it's just on mine but trying to store the closed disc is a pain and even when I can get it to stay put it's not sitting flush like it should. His articulation is good and he has solid range of motion, although mine has a pretty wobbly waist and a stuck thigh rotation on the left leg everything else is moving fine. I'm happy with this release but a bit bummed that the line is going to be pricier going forward.
