NECA Teases Clear Stealth AvP Scar Predator with Holo-Pyramid

[TheBlueMarvel]

I luv translucent figures!

Jesus wept, NECA are killing me.

I'm fine with this being an exclusive. That pink temple hologram looks like a rose growing out of his arm, lol.

BTW, I just picked up the regular version of Masked Scar yesterday, and this figure is awesome. I'm glad I skipped the unmasked version and waited for this one.

Just read this on SDCCBlog:

The hologram is removable, and able to attach to other NECA Predator figures.

That's actually a plus for me. Not a fan of translucent Preds but I like the bloody blades and the hologram being removable and can be used on others ... auto purchase.
I may buy 2 just to remove the hologram off one for another.

The bloody blades sold it for me.

Is it just a good photo or have they improved the clear plastic over previous releases I wonder?

Probably just good photography. I don't really see how they could do much to improve the clearness of the figure without getting rid of all articulation or going totally hollow which would make the figure super fragile. I guess we'll have to wait to find out.

Finally...a figure from NECA come SDCC where I won't be required to sit in front of my computer all day while frantically trying to check out of their store when they go live. I usually jump at their Predator exclusives, but being that this is yet another clear one with a minor attachment (the pyramid, as I can easily drybrush some blood on the blades if necessary) I can do without, I'll probably pass on this, unless I come across a little extra scratch burning a hole in my pocket...

I remember helping out with last years exclusives :-)

I will probably see if Hastings will have them this year and at least go take a look at him in person but I have never really cared for the clear figures. NOW Glow in the Dark, that is a whole different story!!

I only recently got into collecting NECA figures. For the past 20 years (2 the year exactly) I just been getting Transformers full time with some Gijoe, Star Wars, & Super Heroes thrown in.

I picked up Chopper figure from wave 14 and he has no hands to be able to hold his accessories. On the back of the box it mentions the "removable" hands are all compatible but other figures come with extras did I get one thay was supposed to come with extras or does anybody know? Thanks

Oh yea and this clear STEALTH figure ROCKS if he looks like thay! Go NECA go

Randy has already confirmed that what happened last year with Toys R Us and Hastings getting a small amount of the SDCC exclusives was a one time deal. I'm not sure on the exact details or reasons but apparently it isn't worth doing again this year so if you aren't going to the convention then online is it for getting these.
