Alien Queen Diorama - up for presale now!!!

[thx217]

Even the 1:4 scale Aliens Queen is the same. Chin lack & upper buck teeth.

I agree but not as prominent as the dio though. 1/4 got away ok but the "buck teeth" look on the dio is....you know, that obvious.

Here's a pic my 1/4 queen. As you can see, she looks just fine.

Yeah, I think the SS 1:4 Queen bust is perfect.

Wasn't it cast from Winston Studio's molds?

Here's your answer, bud.

"Bringing the 1/4 scale Queen Alien to life, in conjunction with Stan Winston Studio has been an exciting project for the team at Sideshow Collectibles. The project has been spearheaded by John Rosengrant, (a 20-year-plus veteran at SWS, and one of the key artists that created the Queen for the film 'Aliens'), with the goal being to bring a rare collectible piece of movie history to the fans in a new dynamic fashion.

Working closely with Stan Winston, John started with the original film molds of the 1/4 scale Queen. The Queen sculpture was originally designed as a 1/4 scale maquette, a study piece to be used to create the full-size Queen for the film. The 1/4 scale Queen was also the basis for a miniature rod puppet used in the film making process.

Both the goal and the challenge of creating this unique collectible was to reposition the sculpture into into a dynamic, energetic pose that would capture the true nature of the enraged Queen from the film. Due to the large size of the so-called "miniature," (nearly 3 feet tall), the designers felt that an animated bust would be the best treatment to display the Queen. Working with that concept, hours were spent making adjustments in the pose until the correct balance was achieved. To set off the Queen, a simple machined but slightly organic base was created. After many attempts that included "Gigeresque" bones and other more ornate details were tried, it seemed best to display her on a strong elegant base that featured the Queen sculpture, rather than the base. With Stan's approval, the tool masters were touched up, remaining faithful to all the original sculpted details, resulting in what we feel is a beautiful, but aggressive presentation of the original Alien Queen."

Well, there's the answer.

The 1:4 Queen is as damn close to perfect of a representation as you're likely to find.

Thanks for the info THX.

That is still a pretty good size if it's taller than the Endoskull.

[Fremen]

It is a nice size for sure.

 

[Sabres21768]

Damn, that's cool that it's as big as the Pali Queen.

That's gonna be a nice size piece in the ol' collection.

 

[Axel]

She will be my first Alien piece.

Nice way to start I reckon. She looks great

Hhhh...my wifey is not liking the closet at all, but I can't bring myself to get rid of them.

[SilentSurfer]

Damn you. Now I wish I had gotten all of those diorama pieces. Those look amazing together.

I finally saw the Queen in person, and I was wrong. The inner tongue detail is amazing, especially consider the small size. And she is surprisingly light. Just a beautiful piece. I must have her. And I'll take the dog too. Best dog ever made.

Mang...you have no idea how stoked I am with this piece! :chew :chew

Yeah, she really is on the lighter side... but it doesn't detract from her one bit.
I can't help but to look at the Power Loader diorama now. (didn't plan to get one)
These things are awesome!
