NECA’s “Alpha Predator” Figure Includes Mask Based on Unused Jean-Claude Van Damme Costume!

Published

on

NECA officially announced and detailed their upcoming “Ultimate Alpha Predator” action figure, an original creation that will be the company’s landmark 100th Predator figure.

Alpha Predator is “the very first original design and concept by NECA,” and one of the coolest things about it is that it includes the infamous unused original Predator mask!

NECA explains, “In place of the traditional tech, gadgets, and armor worn by other yautja, the Alpha’s attire takes on a more insect-like appearance; a subtle homage to the original 1987 Predator design. Standing at 8” tall with over 30 points of articulation, the Ultimate Alpha Predator is an entirely new sculpt kitted out with an array of accessories including a removable mask, hook, gauntlets, and 3 pairs of interchangeable hands. Classic Predator weapons such as the wrist blades, staff, and shuriken, have been reimagined to fit his unique theme.”

The packaging will feature the character’s original origin story!

You can expect Ultimate Alpha Predator to arrive in June 2020.
