NECA has released photos and full details for their upcoming Ultimate Lasershot Predator 7″ Scale Figure. The figure is the newest addition to NECA’s popular Kenner homage Predator figures. The Lasershot Predator lives up to his name with a light up LED targeting system! The figure also has over 30 points of articulation, and includes a removable mask, a grappling hook, interchangeable left claws, and a removable wrist shield. Look for the figure to hit stores in September. See the new photos after the jump.
Our newest Predator figure is an homage to the classic Kenner Expanded Universe line: Lasershot!
Taking inspiration from the 1990s designs, our team has created a modern tribute with extra detail and articulation to bring this Predator into the new millennium. The original figure has electronic elements and this one does too—a LED targeting eye to home in on his prey. Lasershot Clan Leader stands 8.5″ tall, has over 30 points of articulation and comes with removable mask, detachable wrist shield, flexible grappling hook that attaches to his assault cannon, and a swappable clawed left hand with articulation.
Comes in display-friendly window box packaging with opening flap.

NECA Previews Kenner Tribute Lasershot Predator

Finally! I thought they had forgotten about him!
I had a lot of the Kenner Predators when I was little but I don't remember this one at all.
That would make sense. I like the big claw hand it has.
This looks sooo cool! Can’t wait!
Laser Shot was one of the last releases and pretty scarce from what I recall. I saw him at a Albertsons supermarket once and that was it.
IIRC, the four armed unmade Predator was Heavy Infantry Predator.
Gotcha. Yeah I don't recall ever seeing that one. Looks cool though.
Damn...I got excited for sec, thinking that NECA was releasing an update of the Battle Armor Lost Predator with improved articulation. Oh, well.
Lasershot looks cool, however.
Woo... OK. Hurry up and wait now!
Lasershot looks cool, however.
Not bad.
A damn shame NECA still hasn't improved their QC on their figures.
I had (or perhaps still have) the original. Of all the Predator figures I had, this was my second favorite behind the Ambush/clear one. It's a pretty good looking update.
It's been awhile since I've bought a predator, that will change with this one, super cool figure.
Kenner Tribute Ultimate Lasershot Predator by NECA - The Toyark - News

I'm glad they're giving us a choice for the gloved hand as I feel the larger one is perhaps too big. Either way I'm still absolutely picking this guy up.
I'm not a fan of the matted, almost cell shaded look of the skin tone (it looks more in line with the AVP Game line...) but hot damn, this is an awesome re-imagining of one of my fave Kenner figures (which I still own!) Can't wait to get my hands on this guy!
I can see a re-release of all the figures with a light up feature XD
Very cool. It's now on my list.
How many Predators figures do we actually need from NECA?
This Predator looks so good. You really could get two of these and almost make to differwnt figures.
Those colors are so good. I love these unique figures that get so far away from the typical mold.
I am going to go ahead and say that this will probably be the best Predator figure ever released. Maybe even better than the anniversary predator and we havent even seen NECA product pictures of it yet.
Hopefully it does have near as many QC issues that Spiked tail had. That figure was really plagued. I hope to see NECA do an all around rerelease of some of their older figures now that they have been in Targets for a bit. I have seen some older figures making their way back onto the shelves.
How many more Kenner figures are there for NECA to do and how many have they done
There were also repainted of previous released Kenner Predators that NECA could due as a way to re-release figures some collectors might of missed out on while also updating those figure with the new Predator articulation to make picking them up more likely.
Besides the the three big never before released Predators, personally I hope NECA releases most of the Predators that came in the first two Kenner waves on the new “Ultimate” bodies. A 2.0 version of Nightstorm, Lava Planet, Hive Warrior, Renegade, Scavage, Cracked Tusk, Viper and Ambush with updated and more outlandish weaponry (big cannons, funky-shaped spears, etc.) to mimic more of what the original 90 figures came with would go pretty nice therir latest offerings right about now.
Lastly an Ultimate Battle Armor list Predator, though technically not Kenner would also be pretty sweet and easy for them to do. I’m halfway thinking they nay reveal that at SDCC just from the demand that figure has gotten as of late with the additions is Spiked Tail and Lasershot.
