Seriously Neca?

Seems like I have bad luck with Neca figures, specifically the Aliens/Predator figures. Last time, my Alien lost an arm right out of the package. Today I bought the Neca Classic Predator from a comic store, I only checked to see whether the paint job was good, thinking anything else would be the same. Got home, took him out of the packaging and noticed he was missing one of his knee armor pieces. I thought maybe it fell off while I was fiddling with it, but then I checked my "moc haul" picture and yup it was missing in the packaging already. I mean COME ON NECA!? I paid $20 and I expect a COMPLETE figure!



Exposed knee joint because of missing piece, this figure would have been great. But NECA QC is really bad.


I really want to buy more of this line, but I don't know what will tear off or be missing next time. I sent a message about this using NECA's customer service link, I will update this when they have replied.

  1. bro that's sad. I think you can consider getting revoltech as another option.

  2. Ya I wonder how is the sculpt and details of the revoltech compared to the NECA ones. This is really not a bad figure, just unfortunate that it was missing a piece.

  4. Yup I've already email them about it, I will update with their reply. It would be nice if they could send me that piece alone, if not then I guess I will have to take a stab at fixing it myself. But the more I fiddle with this figure, the more I just love it. Neca really did a good job on these. The sculpt is great and it is much more poseable than the previous version by Neca. I will post more pictures of this figure tomorrow.
