Hot toys:Dutch & Billy from Predator

Dutch
Major Alan "Dutch" Schaefer (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is the leader of the elite team of commandos Sent on a mission in Val Verde, under the belief that presidential cabinet members of Guatemala were kidnapped by guerilla forces. After attacking the guerrila's post, they discover that the men were actually CIA agents. It is also known that Dutch and his have team fought in Afghanistan for a time as stated by Poncho.
After the Predator kills all of Dutch's team and Dillon, and with Anna being rescued, he is the only man left in the jungle with the Predator. Using a combat knife and vines to fashion primitive weapons and traps including a spear (with the combat knife as the blade), and a bow with an explosive-tipped arrow made from a grenade, he covers his body in mud after discovering the Predator sees through infrared, essentially making him invisible. After a brutal fight with the Predator, which ends with the Predator activating a self-destruct device for its suicide, Dutch is rescued by the rescue helicopter that saved Anna.
In expanded media he is revealed to be the brother of Detective Schaefer, who another Predator chooses to hunt in Predator Comics series and the Predator: Cold War graphic novel. Dutch is also a distant relative of Judge Schaefer, a character appearing in Predator vs. Judge Dredd , an intercompany-crossover comic. Dutch also is a playable character in the arcade game Aliens VS Predator released by Capcom.

Billy
Lieutenant Billy Sole (Sonny Landham) a Native American "Kit Carson Scout" .Billy is the first one to notice the Predator is hunting them, though only as a gut feeling. He dies after presenting a formal machete fight challenge to the Predator, in order to buy Dutch and the survivors of his team more time. Poncho points out earlier that Billy is "afraid of no man," and another possible interpretation of the challenge is that Billy is facing down his fear. Later, the predator is shown ripping Billy's spinal column from his back, only to clean off the skull and save it as a trophy. Billy's laughter is mimicked in the Predator's dying scene as it activates its self-destruct.
