NECA confirm SDCC 2017 Dutch from Predator exclusive

NECA have teased about a new 7" Predator figure a couple of times now, with some fans jumping back on the hope of it being a Dillon figure.

Today we got a full reveal of the figure in question - the Jungle Briefing Dutch. This is a tweaked release using an existing Predator Dutch head, complete with cigar. It also reuses the trousers from the previous Dutch/Commando figure - now painted in a tan colour. The torso and arms appear new, but please let me know if you can see any clever re-use. The T-shirt may be a rubberised piece over the top of an existing torso?


The new figure depicts Dutch as he receives the briefing for the Jungle Extraction mission. The box contains the map for the mission as well as a classified folder. There is also a machine gun.

The packaging is the boxed 30th Anniversary packaging. It rather cleverly adds in what appears to be a cardboard arm for Dillon so their prolonged hand shake / arm wrestling scene is played out (to a degree) on the box front.

The figure will be an SDCC 2017 exclusive and will be sold at the NECA booth for $30.

There will also be a limited number released online from 20th - 23rd June for pre-order. These can't be collected at the SDCC show, but will be shipped to US addresses. There is no international option for this release.

30 years ago today, Predator opened in movie theaters, which makes it the perfect time to reveal our 5th and final 2017 convention exclusive... Celebrate the 30th anniversary of the classic #Predator movie! Jungle Briefing Dutch features the likeness of Arnold Schwarzenegger and the character’s iconic red polo and cigar from the beginning of the movie. The figure comes with jungle map, dossier that opens and closes, and M-16 with grenade launcher. The display-worthy foil-accented 30th anniversary window box packaging even recreates the immortal handshake/arm wrestle between Dillon and Dutch. Jungle Briefing Dutch has over 20 points of articulation and stands approximately 7” tall. Limited edition of 3,000. Price: $30 For full details on all our 2017 convention exclusives and the Pre-Order Sale on 6/20, visit: http://necaonline.com/2017/06/neca-2017-convention-exclusives-roundup-pre-order-details/
