under Aliens and Predator Toy News, Video Game Toy News

NECA has released final packaging photos for the upcoming Alien vs Predator Arcade Appearance Dutch and Linn 7″ Scale Figure 2-Pack. The set is scheduled to ship out to retailers on May14th, with the Aliens assortment shipping out the following week. By the end of May, the full line should be in the hands of many fans. Check out the new photos after the jump.

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.

    So excited for this line. If they release Dutch and Linn as well then I'm devoting a whole shelf to an entire dio based on the game, mark my words. AvP is my favorite beat-em-up ever.

    Mine too. I want to know why they've never re-released it on PSN/XBLA or whatever? I know a lot of people (including me) want them to.

    I don't actually know the answer to that question, but I'd guess it may have something to do with licensing rights for those films.

    Could be any number of reasons. Capcom would need to want to re-release it, then get any licensing in line that's needed from 20th Century Fox and Dark Horse. Capcom doesn't seem to have much interest in their back catalog beyond Mega Man, Street Fighter and the occasional Disney re-release these days.

    Prep that shelf 'cause NECA teased a Dutch figure based on that game (a diagram of his bionic arm was posted recently on Twitter)

    This showed up on NECA's Twitter feed not long ago. So dang excited for these two

    Man, how much longer do we have to wait?

    That said, this line is gonna make me broke. I need 'em all!

    Oh, thank goodness...at SDCC they displayed the Hunter and Warrior Predators with their weapons swapped, but here they've got it right.

    BTW, if the Predators are due to hit in December, when are the Aliens and Dutch and Lynn supposed to be released?

    Those are listed as 1st quarter 2019.

    Never understood why they call him a hunter predator, aren't ALL predators hunters? That seems to be all they do in the movies, travel to exotic planets to hunt wildlife and natives.

    Amok Time just got in all three AvP Preds, as well as the entire Kenner Terminator wave. I'm heading down today or tomorrow and get 'em all (well, except for maybe the color-change T-1000).

And the cell-shaded paint style on the AvP Predators is beautiful in-hand...I'm so glad they went this route as opposed to a more pixelated look. Even the various tubes on the Preds are a more rubbery material this time around which makes them more durable when posing.

    Hell, even the Power Arm Terminator can shockingly hold almost any pose well even with the big-ass power arm.

    Nice haul! Just about two more months before they hit Canada


    It's reassuring NECA's QC is on the right track with these new figures. I was getting worried with all the popped joints and missing parts I read about on Twitter with the Broken Tusk/Machiko wave
