🎥 The Predator Question about Fugitive Predator armor

Post image

That abdominal section that looks like chain mail, is that like connect to the bottom section of the suit or the top section of it? Just a random probably stupid question.

This is one of the best predator suits and mask in my opinion.

In my opinion, he looks too much like a toy. Maybe because his head is so big.

It looks very generic compared to what came before. I think this is one of the worst armor designs personally. It has such little personality. Even AvP had attitude in its costume design. And their heads were even bigger

Yeah they’re predators not your run of the mill aliens in armor

Looks better than the recent stuff in my opinion. This still has the same feel as the original stuff

Very slimline

Fugitive was the only good thing about The Predator. His facial design isn't the greatest, but good enough for me. And I love the armor. The plasma caster is too small though, it looks like a parrot sitting on a pirate's shoulder. Needed more personality, to be bigger.

The movie should have just been about Fugitive trying to retrieve stolen tech from Stargazer.

And if you absolutely need to have the big hulk Predator in the movie, write a way so that Fugitive kills him. Thus showing us, that you can't beat a classic.

Here's a better fix, rename fugitive to enforcer and the upgrade to bad blood, and just make it a bad blood adaptation.

Have the enforcer be a badass that survives the movie and help the good guys beat the bad blood and boom. End of story.

Remove the stupid autism angle and the convoluted and insulting backstory for the upgrade and make it a simple story of a guy and his allies getting hunted by a Predator that's psychotic and evil.

Yeah, I kinda can see him as an enforcer with this design: less "personal safari suit", more "police job uniform".

u/Kaos3974 Nov 17 '25

Sick idea!

u/Kaos3974 Nov 17 '25

Yeah, defo the best part of the movie. Loved him. And ur idea is great.

u/Kaos3974 Nov 17 '25

100% agree. Freaking love his design and armor. Too bad he got such little screentime.

u/DRIPSCBW Nov 18 '25

He looks agile yet bulked up, new but still paying homage to original, I dunno, imo I love this armor/design also. Movie not so much…

It's all connected to autism from what i heard..

u/druid65 Nov 17 '25

Autism armor !!??!!

Predator could have just dosed Tylenol

u/binokyo10 Nov 17 '25

Fugitive was only good thing about that movie

u/FriendacrosstheRiver Nov 17 '25

Why does his body become smaller from top to bottom. It looks so weird

3

u/BubbleTeaGZB Nov 17 '25

He doesn’t have hips or bigger thighs so he looks especially top heavy. His body type is much leaner than other yautja we’ve seen in movies

u/EldritchSpoon Nov 17 '25

Design is pretty cool

4

u/predatorART Nov 17 '25

Hated this design

3

u/Leo-pryor-6996 Nov 17 '25

I'm more concerned by the oversized helmet, honestly. It makes the Fugitive Predator look neotenous.

If the Neca figure is anything to go by, it’s connected to the top part

u/MrSpeigel Nov 19 '25

Pretty meh about those armour..looks like a product of the MCU to me..if this is what the allied Predators were wearing it would make sense more than making Predators actually wear combat fatigues

u/SnowRidin Nov 18 '25

the shine bothers me

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '25

Why?

2

u/SnowRidin Nov 18 '25

i like the more gritty, organic and “tribal” look as someone else said

u/Alki_Soupboy Nov 18 '25

He gives off royal-guard vibes.

u/Technical-Skirt806 Nov 19 '25

I thought the fugitive predator looked hopelessly small - he was not an intimidating specimen at all.

u/Sad-Currency-6282 Jan 01 '26

My question is how is there two of the same fugitive masks. One McKenna stole in the beginning and the other one at the stargazer laboratory which the predator breaks out the glass display.
