ALIEN and ALIENS Thread...

[Reinhardt]

anxious to see pics! i didn't dig the design of the alien from AVP that much, but the fig still looks cool.

I'm so pissed off that of the two pre-orders I meant to cancel I forgot to cancel the Grid exclusive and not the brownie... out of the two I find the brownie more interesting.
Oh well, too bad.
I guess I'll have to find an owner for Grid down here in South America.

Man, what's up with xl-shop.com. I placed an order a week ago for Grid Alien, and tonight they send me an e-mail saying that they checked their stock and it is sold out, but it's still up as an in stock product on their page.

[Reinhardt]

A good repaint and some weathering and she's good to go up against those nasty xenomorphs!

I would have so traded with you buddy!
Good luck on that.

My CCard is officially charged for Rip and Hudson, so I know it's only a matter of time and they'll be on the way! :chew

And when they arrive, they won't be alone......

 

[abake]

Yeah, too bad you didn't get the brownie after all.
I'll see if anybody's interested over at the WWII forums (long shot, I know) and see if maybe I can sell it.

I can't wait to get my hands on Rip and the rest of the crew, they will look awesome together!

First thread quote:

Here's something new. The guys over at OSW are trying to figure out if this is a custom or a leaked prototype for the Hot Toys line. It was found on some Hong Kong thread...

The hands look like Vasquez, but those boots look pretty darn good for a custom. I hope its the real deal.

Third thread quote:

Oh.My.God.

I think that looks a lot like a HotToys product and might be the real deal!
Awesome.
I just hope this means we'll get a lot more Alien/Aliens figures from HotToys, especially the aliens themselves. Wow!
Thank you so much for the headsup!

We've come a long way, baby!

And that's exactly how this figure needs to be repainted.

What is, Dave? The first proto pic?

 

[dekadentdave]

No, the final product with the red hair and blues eyes needs to be repainted to match that proto image to look like Sigourney.

 

[pjam]

Yep, that's what I meant... the first proto pic should reflect the final prod piece...

 

[DarkArtist81]

Yeah, I can't wait to have Ripley in hand to start the official repaint. Will probably wait until Frontline or someone makes a good Hudson head before I do much to him.... Probably just weather the armor and clothing and wait....

 

[figuremaster_les]

Dittos.
Not too sure about that Hudson head....
BUT....
Hey!....why not! It's just paint! Get to it Josh! GET IN SNEAKY MODE DUDE! (Once he arrives that is!)
