    The GREATEST Military/G.I.JOE 12" Figure EVER !!!



    I present to you....
    SCHWARZENEGGER as DUTCH from Predator !!!!



    The Likeness Is Uncanny...
    They put him on their Muscular rubber body sleeve,.. or whatever,.. so he has some serious size & weight to him as well.




    His clothing is sooooo damn Detailed,.. I don't even Know where to Begin.....



    The custom packaging even looks like its worth some serious Dough....

    Slip case



    Actual Box cover....



    Man,.. this thing is SOOOOOOO BAD Arse !!!!
    I am afraid to even pose him,.. or even touch him,... I was sweating taking him outta the Box,.. & snapping these pics..

    I am A huge Schwarzenegger Fan,.. as well as Predator... I have dreamed of such a figure Since 1st seeing the Movie in 87. I have waited 22 yrs for something like this. & MAN is it KEWEL AND much more than I possibly coulda imagined.

    From Hot Toys Folks,.. it's out now, if you are interested.

    Hot toys does have some rally kool items coming out. The plastic they are using for the portraits is amazing for fleshtones and also holds the shading/highlight paints well. Are you going to pick up the Billy as well?

      I hope too ...
      I know he's out now too ,.. I think the Predator for this Movie comes out in a few Weeks too....
      On the Box on the Slip case,.. you can see that pic to the Left,.. it looks as if there is a Carl Weather's figure too....On Billy's box,.. there is a Pic of 2 people in the background too,.. but I can not make out who they are....

      If Funds permit themselves,.. I will get every single one.
      Dutch was only like 135 .... & I think Billy is even Cheaper,.. Not so bad considering most of Hot Toy's Prices,.. + what you get next to a 12inch JOE,.. imo.

                    Michael Crawford did a review for him a few weeks back. He looks fantastic!!! Congrats!

                    I'm a fan of Hot Toys since I got their Dark Knight Batman and Joker. Expensive, but well worth it for characters you love!!!

                      Another instant classic by Hot Toys. An incredible figure Jason. Space is being cleared, even as we speak, for him to join my collection. I'm so glad you made mention of this character while he was still available in his first run. Figures like this sell out fast. Great pics!!!

                          They really captured Arnie in his prime.

                              They Really Did,...
                              Even More so at the size angle of the Face Sculpt. It's Incredible.

                              I really hope they do a Big Bad Arnie from 84's Terminator. I would love to get my hands on such a Piece as well...
