WOW. I have to say...HT did a scary amazing job on these new figures. They came a long way but now they should start to consider to expand their product line. It's time to make some kick ass statues!!

Damn it! That's the best bit!

Thanks for the pics and details.

I'm happy to read that it features "authentic likeness of Arnold Schwarzenegger". That means Hot Toys has the permission to use Arnold's face on its toys, and it's sculpted by Yulli.

But still, somehow I feel it doesn't completely look like Arnold, based on these photos.

I'll wait for the actual products.
I'm torn though, I can either get Dutch or Hot Toys's Hellboy. Don't have enough funds for both.

Another great set of figures, but the human likeness's are not quite there this time around.

Yeah I'm not quite sold on the likenesses either, the Arnie is close, but there's something slightly off about it that I can't quite put my finger on. Wait and see how the final versions turn out I guess.

It looks a lot like Arnold, that's great. But I think his biceps look kinda weird.
Also Billy does not have blonde hair but black hair, but other than that he also look great!
I also like the Predator but I don't like his pants, looks like an indian skirt or something.

hmm..I think the likeliness is superb. I seriously was like "wow that's good!" thus I'm considering getting this Arnie because I think the likeliness is very good.. don't care much for billie though.

Quite nice for $100 action figures. For some reason the HT predator heads look a little big to me. Arnie/"Dutch" looks too skinny, and the likeness is good but not great. Why, why, why Billy? Why not Carl Weathers/"Dillon" with chopped off arm option (ouch)? And then they could do Jesse Ventura with old painless and Bill Duke with an optional splattered melon. I'll see where the HT stuff goes in the secondary. We don't collect action figs.
