New NECA Pacific Rim and Predator Figures Revealed
 |
NECA likes to reveal things on Christmas, and they did so in an elaborate way this year, offering large, downloadable visual guides to their popular Predator and Pacific Rim lines. In both cases, new figures were revealed, along with one key new “accessory” – the baby Otachi, seen above with big mama.
For the Jaegers, we got a fully painted Horizon Brave, and yet another Gipsy Danger variant – this time missing its RIGHT arm and delivering a reactor blast.

For Predators, just when you think they can’t come up with any more, they do – a 1992 videogame-style Predator 2 City Hunter, and a still slightly concealed 25th anniversary Dark Horse Comics-style figure. (They also basically acknowledged something we kinda all guessed – there will be a Nintendo-style Gremlins figure too.)

I ain’t got time to bleed money. So just shut up and take it now, guys.
