Hunting Down Sideshow Collectibles: Unleashing the Feral Predator Hot Toy

Prey, directed by Dan Trachtenberg, is hailed as one of the top sci-fi horror films of the decade. Serving as a prequel to the beloved Predator franchise, the movie received critical acclaim upon its release on Hulu in 2022 and has recently become available on physical media. Building on the buzz surrounding the Predator universe, Sideshow Collectibles now introduces the highly anticipated Feral Predator Hot Toys figure inspired by Prey.

This one-sixth scale figure expertly showcases the menacing appearance of the Predator portrayed by Dane DiLiegro in the prequel. Taking into account the story's historical backdrop set 300 years prior in the untamed American frontier, the Predator's technology remains identifiable, albeit more primitive. The figure offers various accessories, including interchangeable fangs, a carefully crafted lamellar skirt and ankle wrap, and a vast arsenal of weapons. Notably, these weapons encompass a shield, blades, batons, a spear gun with a spear, an LED-powered Predator mask, and a capsule backpack. Adding to the overall appeal, the figure's display base takes inspiration from Naru's campsite seen in the film.

Prey is currently available for streaming on Hulu, but many film enthusiasts were delighted to see the horror film preserved on physical media this month. The movie has been released in 4K and Blu-ray formats, with the latter option even offering a stunning steelbook package. While this may not appear significant, it is rare for popular streaming films like Prey to be released physically. With the decline of physical media sales at retailers like Best Buy, promoting the preservation of physical media is now more important than ever. Furthermore, Prey is not only regarded as the finest film in its series but has also attained the status of one of the greatest sci-fi horror films of all time. This achievement can be credited to Dan Trachtenberg's breathtaking direction, Amber Midthunder's exceptional performance, and the intense action sequences that effectively depict the horrors of the American frontier. Prey is a film that must be watched as it truly encapsulates the power of a coming-of-age story with a focus on representation.

Now that the Feral Predator has been made into a Hot Toy, it is high time that Naru also receives some appreciation. After all, horror fans yearn to recreate their epic battles. While we await that moment, you can preview the Hot Toy Feral Predator below and explore other figures on their website.
