    wow.Those are awesome pictures!they make me want to get alien even more now....
    hmm.. I 'am sure one is alien runner , the one with inner jaw is maybe NECA classic 7" alien?and mabe the one in the left corner with open mouth is NECA alien warrior?have no idea about the other two.
    I think I like predators with masks more.depends on face.I love lost predator's face .with masks they can control plasma then , have different visions.I remember when I was little kid I hated them unmasked :lol  don't know why,
    I'm still not sure do I want elder , I want more P2 main lost predator.NECA will also make all lost predators , so maybe I'll be getting guardian predator too.

    The two Aliens with their backs to the camera are NECA ones, one based on the Alien from the first Alien film and the other from AVP2. The Alien running on all fours with a brownish head is by Mcfarlane from Alien 3, the one standing up is Mcfarlane from AVP and the one with his tongue out is Mcfarlane based on the first Alien and cam in a cool set with the first Preator and a stand of three Alien eggs and some facehuggers.
    Where did you find out the Predator names like Lost Predator and guardian Predator?

    I have a couple questions for you NECA collectors.

    I found a shop yesterday that carries some of the NECA products, including the new Predators figures. Kind of unusual for Taiwan, but the prices were pretty good. Anyway, I've giving some thought to going back for the Classics Predator, but before I do, I wanted to ask what the articulation is like on these guys. Obviously, I'm not expecting DCUC/Revoltech levels of articulation, but all the NECA merchandise I've seen in the past seems to be more like statues than anything else. Is that the case with these?

    Also, the shop had the NECA Kratos for a really good price and I was thinking about picking one up. Is it any good?

    The Classic Predator has the best articulation so far compared to the other NECA and especially McFarlane ones. The groin is the only problem area as its a straight up and down, no side movement. Everywhere else has the standard modern articulation.
    I did a youtube video of photographs of some of the different Alien and Predator figures available from Neca and McFarlane.

    i was holding out on getting the any NECA/Mcfarlane predators until i saw the review for the Classic Predator. it has great articulations, the ankle joints sold it for me! i may also get the revoltech predator depending on how good it looks, it should have great articulations but i am not a massive fan of the clicky joints.

    While I like the look of NECA's Predator figures, I really just want a classic looking Predator with the mask on and no battle damage. I don't think they've done one like that have they?

    Replaced my balding Falconer at the store since I was in the area anyway.

    They have that coming down the pipes.

    'course you'll have to beat the scalpers to the masked version, since they couldn't do the smart thing and just have it come with all three heads.

    I'm partial to the "bitch plz" face on the left anyway. The one he makes when he spots Dutch's little spike trap.

    Falconer looks cool, if only the mask was removable! Id find it so frustrating owning him and not being able to see what he looks like under the mask lol.
    I like the 'bitch plz' face too on the vintage Predator.

    Even though the skull necklaces look cool as trophies that the Predators wear, I always think its funny that they seem to have hunted small animals like bunny rabbits and racoons and now wear the skulls with pride lol.

    Maybe that was just his lunch, and when they were first hung up there, they still had meat on them bones.

    Or maybe they were really, really dangerous bunny rabbits...you know, like that killer rabbit in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
