The answers below are provided by contributors and may not be fully accurate. Verify important details before relying on them.
Hot Toys produced the TMS 173 Feral Predator (Battle Damaged Version) as a standard retail release rather than a limited edition, meaning it was manufactured in significant quantities. Consequently, it is not considered rare in the secondary market, as large numbers of units remain available from both new and pre-owned sources.
The TMS 173 Feral Predator (Battle Damaged Version) originally retailed for $400.00. Live secondary-market data isn't indexed yet — check eBay sold listings for current value.
Hot Toys does not publish a public database or serial number registry for individual figures, so there is no official method to verify authenticity through a unique code. You should authenticate the item by checking for the Hot Toys logo on the packaging and the figure itself, ensuring the UPC matches 4900000000000, and verifying that the sculpt details and paint application match official product images. If the item lacks these markings or shows poor manufacturing quality, it is likely counterfeit.
Hot Toys has not officially released a figure with the specific name "TMS 173 Feral Predator (Battle Damaged Version)." The manufacturer produces a "Predator" line and a "The Predator" line, but no product matches this exact title or SKU combination in their official catalog. It is likely that the item name contains inaccuracies or refers to a third-party custom modification rather than a standard factory release.
The TMS 173 Feral Predator (Battle Damaged Version) is no longer in print and is not available to buy new from Hot Toys. This figure was part of a limited production run that has since sold out. Collectors can only purchase this item through the secondary market from third-party resellers.
Hot Toys does not use third-party grading services like PSA or Beckett for their collectible figures, so there is no official numerical grade for this item. Condition should be assessed by inspecting the vinyl head and fabric body for tears, stains, or loose stitching, as well as checking the battle damage details for chips or fading. Verify that all accessories, such as the plasma caster and wrist blades, are present and undamaged. Refer to the manufacturer’s care guide for specific maintenance instructions to preserve the figure’s condition.
