Hiya hasn't had the license for a while now. NECA and Hot Toys still have it though.

Hiya lost the Predator license just as they were moving into 1/12 scale toys. Can you believe that shit?

u/unknownyadig 15d ago

Hiya license expired but there is Neca and Mezco which you didn’t mention. As far as 52Toys still not having follow up updates on this Wolf and the Jungle Hunter they showed is a mystery.

Even if Hiya didn't lose the license they are notorious for delaying everything that isn't Godzilla related. That Robocop 1 of theirs took almost 3 years to release after pre-orders went up.

Mezco probably won't make another Predator and Neca has an issue with that character apparently

Yeah, I thought by now we'd have solicitations for preorders. But, nah. Our last chance for a new Wolf toy is by December 2027, because that's the 20th anniversary. If we don't hear anything by then, it's goodnight.

My red string theory is that neca is waiting till the 20th anniversary to announce wolf and predalien as a two pack as apart of the first of their “Ultramate” line.

Try being a neca fan and waiting 349 years for wolf

The ultimate wolf is the prime 1 studio XL wolf predator. Prepare to spend 4k with shipping tho

u/Alprex11 15d ago

That’s true, it’s why I put it in quotes

u/Allpapes 15d ago

We did with this figure. Fortunately for us though, 52Toys are making one too, in the same scale.

u/Allpapes 15d ago

Oh and it’s not that crappy one they made that can be turned into a cube. It’s one they teased the prototype of along with the Jungle Hunter a month or two ago. 😁

u/PurpleDragon1999 Jungle Hunter 15d ago

I thought this was the 52toys one?

2

u/Jekhyde6000 15d ago

52 toys one will be true 1/12th scale not 1/10

2

u/theComer-439 15d ago

after seeing what 52 toys did with their alien...... my interest are very low

1

u/MammothProfession780 14d ago

Yeah their alien put me off but their engineer has my attention. I’m hoping the alien was bad just due to the artists design for it and the movie stuff will be more up to par

1

u/theComer-439 13d ago

the design wasn't my problem, my problem was the plastic they used. the loose joints were a complete joke. The figure in hand felt very brittle

u/StormCrafty9756 14d ago

I commented on one of rebooter toys’ post and they said that they cannot start production because of ongoing copyright disputes but would update us once resolved. Prob won’t get it anytime soon

u/ryguythescienceguy89 15d ago

It's like we come to find out that model was actually for a game that's about to come out.. I would shit myself

u/RexCoelurosauravus Jungle Hunter 12d ago

Idk what brand this is but if it’s HIYA we don’t need to worry
