Hot Toys is proud to collaborate with the esteemed artists, Mr. Takayuki Takeya (竹谷隆之) and Mr. Yuji Oniki (鬼木祐二), once again on the Samurai Predator Sixth Scale Collectible Figure inspired by Alien vs. Predator.

The greatly detailed diorama base with Alien’s corpse finely completes the collectible by telling the story of Samurai Predator’s victory over Alien.
This Special Edition exclusively includes an additional samurai helmet that comes with a crest of a Japanese character “髑” (Doku), a decorative fitting mounted on the front of a samurai helmet.
