Toy Fair 2018 – NECA Alien vs Predator Arcade Dutch and Linn 2-Pack

Posted on February 18, 2018 at 12:09 pm by Joe Moore under Aliens and Predator Toy News, Toy Fair, Video Game Toy News

NECA has released official photos and details for their new Alien vs Predator Arcade Appearance Dutch and Linn 7″ Scale Figure 2-Pack. The figures made their official debut at Toy Fair 2018. These are set for release in October. See the details below and the photos after the jump.

Alien vs Predator (Arcade Appearance) – 7” Scale Action Figures – Dutch & Linn 2-Pack

Introducing a new 2-pack of action figures inspired by the classic Alien vs Predator 1994 arcade game that actually predates the movie!

Playable characters Dutch and Linn make their action figure debut with paint deco that re-creates the look of the arcade game. Major Dutch Schaefer comes with a detachable blast effect for his huge mechanical arm, plus backpack and interchangeable hands. Lt. Linn Kurosawa comes with sword and gun accessories that fit into working sheaths. They both have 30 points of articulation and stand approximately 7″ tall. Window box packaging.

    HOLY SHIT, yes. And I know that's just a Dutch tease (perhaps *confirms* isn't 100% accurate), but if they can make him, they can make Linn as well, yes?

    Linn might be trickier because she's an original character so Capcom would have to be on board all the way but she certainly seems possible at this point. I wouldn't bother only making one of the humans if it were me.

    Let's just hope he'll actually be as beefy and cartoon-ish looking as the in-game sprite, if they just take one of their existing Dutch's and stick the metal arm on him like some customs I've seen this might be laughably bad.

    Me either. Both or none, but if I had to pick just one, it would be Linn.

    I agree with you 100% - I would love a completely original sculpt with the beefy proportions of his arcade counterpart - but knowing NECA, they'll probably slap that arm on a Predator Dutch figure, sadly. After all, they're just repainting the Jungle and City Hunters for this line (they both still look great, however)

    Linn, on the other hand, would have to be almost completely new, though they could probably cannibalize some Vasquez parts if they wanted to half-ass it (which I hope they don't do).

    This is great news! The thing that gives me hope about Linn and Dutch having original sculpts is the fact that they seem willing to break out a new sculpt for the upcoming comic inspired Noguchi figure. It is super frustrating, though, because they could easily make something original and flat out amazing or they could just as easily make a couple of figures that are half recycled parts. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

    video game Dutch is a capcom design though. Unless neca just plan on using their Arnold sculpt with that arm and in the Dutch sprite's colors...which I would still buy the fuck out of.

    The Capcom AvP arcade game is my all-time favorite bear-em-up ever. I still play it regularly on MAME and even made my own GI Joe-scale Linn custom:

    So would I, but I'd love 100% original sculpts as well to reflect the anime-style of the game's human characters.

    If we get Dutch and Linn I will preordering the hell out of them.

    Coincidentally, this makes me really want a new Spencer (Bionic Commando)

    I hope they're not going to do the sucky "8-bit" paint on Dutch and Linn, that's the only thing that kept me from buying the Contra set. I just didn't like that paint-scheme.

    The Predators NECA revealed didn't have the "8-bit" paint scheme, so I doubt Linn and Dutch will either. The paint on the Predators matched the artwork shown in the animated story line cinemas between levels, so Dutch and Linn will probably end up looking like they do below as well.

    Dutch looks like he's one "Power Up" from turning into a Werewolf in "Altered Beast" lol
    I'd be up for a little more muscle, but I think he'd look kind of silly with a Big body and a tiny head.

    It'll be a total fail if the figure isn't seriously beefed-up.

    The title is a little misleading. Dutch has definitely been confirmed, but I don't think we know if they're doing Linn yet. Hopefully do they do, and I'm hoping they stay true to the source and give us an anime-inspired face unlike the weird hybrid Machiko is.

    This is probably a good idea of what we'll get:

    Seeing the image comparison... yeah they already missed some sculpted detail on the Predator just so that they can reuse an existing body without any remolding, that's kinda lame.

    And that's exactly what I don't want. I applaud the custom maker for his effort, he did a fantastic job, but that's not a figure I would want to buy sadly.

    Except Machiko isn't supposed to be anime at all.

    Yeah, that's the problem. It's like they tried to make it look cartoonish and realistic at the same time and it looks funky.

    Is that a new headsculpt? If it is then we have confirmation that it's not going to be another recycled Arnold mold!

    I betcha those are just new parts that'll go on an old body.

    I'm okay with that. I like the Contra/Arnold/etc bodies for the most part.

  24. Dolemite's Avatar Dolemite says

    08-31-2017, 03:28 PM

    Excited to see that new head sculpt, but I'm starting to get really worried that Linn isn't in the works. Getting Dutch would be cool, but kind of completely pointless if they can't make Linn as well.

  25. deecee4's Avatar deecee4 says

    09-01-2017, 04:28 PM

    So is that an actual all new head sculpt or is it a modified Arnold head sculpt?
