Statue Big Chap Alien Statue

Dude, I completely agree..but in this situation It makes no sense.

They announce a new Predator line that'll be around 1/6 scale. Then they make 3 1/6 scale, and one 1/5 scale.. I get that those 3 were from Predators, but I just don't see the harm in making this new line the same scale since that's pretty much what they told us they were going to do.
I don't care all that much, not even picking up the 3 Supers due to the horrible paint..but the situation is a tad bit annoying.

Even if you were getting the Super-Predators, you could still come up with a varied yet justified display. Picture the 1/6 trio with 1/5 statues from the original movies on both sides of them. Inconsistent franchise-wise, but symmetrical in terms of individual movies.

I dont think they'll look that out of scale with the new Classic Pred after all none of the super preds are even standing up straight.

If the new classic Pred is around 16 inches off his base then the others aren't really that far off!

Hey i'll just put the new Pred at the back

Just made my first flex payment for this...LOL...this thread is dead!

I STILL do not get this obsession with wanting every statue to be the same size.

BORING!

So they could match as a set >_>

I like consistency in my display.

So all PF's 1/4th.
All statues 1/5th or 1/6th, not a mix.
All Cinemaquettes 1/3th.

Totally agree 100%.

I don't necessarily collect everything to be the exact same size, I mean there aint no 1/4 scale full body Alien Queen coming to match the other maquettes ... but I would like my statues to be either 1/5 OR 1/6. For example I'm a Buffy fan and their new Buffy statue line is 1/5 and their new LOTR line is 1/6. I just have a problem with Buffy being bigger than Aragorn in statue format :-/ despite loving both franchises. I just think if they do a statue line, make it 1/5.

I placed this order on Sept 15 2011.
SS just sent me any email yesterday saying they are going to charge me the NRD on this and they did.

Anyone else get charged the NRD on this yesterday?

Yeah, but the incessant whining about statue size sure does get old.

Got an email from SS saying that the flexpay has changed. I've already made my first payment but now the 2nd payment is due on 5th June and 3rd payment due on the 5th July. Is SS tinkering with the sculpture?

Yep, and it bugged me out. I had thought that they had already charged it since I pre-ordered on release day. I ordered a couple things around that time, though. I checked my records, and was pleased to find that they indeed had not charged the NRD for this one yet. Odd.

Don't care, delays are awesome. My finances kinda depend on them.

Likewise, am glad for the delay.

WoW Exclusive on this 250 pieces is still not sold out? This "Spider-Man" Alien statue is a hundred times better than the "Dracula" Alien maquette.

I absolutely cannot wait for this baby to ship out. Well, this and the Alien Warrior. All four pieces will make an excellent display, it's just such a bummer the set won't be complete 'till summer.

I read "fiances" and I was going to ask why you had several

Personally this is my favorite Alien statue, it's a good size for me and I love the pose.

 

[lordquigon]

Can't seem to find the pics of this from last years SDCC? Any hep here would be hot.

 

[DeadGhostKnight]

I was really looking forward to getting this but with all the Preds coming out i just won't have room for both so i got my $25 NRD moved to the 87 Pred and i'll be selling my Dog and Res Warrior.

Shame really as despite what people have said about this line i love my Dog and Res Warrior and i think the next two looked just as good!

This is the only one I can find:

Cool thanks. That's the one I was looking for.

 

[MasterSafara]

Is there a new estimated ship date? What's the delay?

 

[tylerdurden]

yeah, i've also been wondering what happened to this. i preordered it and completely forgot about it til now.

 

[Drakul]

Really excited about this one.
