In keeping woth their New York Toy Fair announcement, NECA has released the first of their Kenner-style Predators as a Toys R Us exclusive! So, is this "Deluxe" figure worth it?
The review is worded differently on both sites, to appease Google:

I recognize the name. I think I remember reading that the Transformers community thinks he is a turd.Did the customizer run over your dog?

On the one hand, I'm insulted by the poor likeness for a custom you'd try to pass off as a Kenner-styled NECA Predator.
It's a problem shared by a few others like this I've seen of his, perhaps intentional, but avoiding the Kenner color schemes kills some of the point of the homage.The other is supporting a manipulative, possibly bigoted, passive-aggressive attention whore with whatever ungodly sum of money you gave him and the endorsement, but that damage is already done.

Not to mention that I seem to be inflaming people's unreasonably scary grudges...

Unreasonably scary? Unless you're getting messages in private, let's not go overboard. Dude has a way of putting himself out there on purpose, no matter how bad the attention, so it has a way of sticking when an otherwise sensible person wouldn't care one iota.
You don't see me talking about wishing he was in tiny pieces in a freezer like one person here did over a grudge formed on giving -1s and trading barbs over selling etiquette.

The customizer of the figure this thread's about, Jin. Unless you mean the freezer thing, in which case that's our friendly neighborhood comrade.
