people have been begging every up and coming company to do those licenses. They seem to all feel the same way.

Yea, that is a pretty silly thing to say to customers. Any "good" alien piece will sell and there is a lot of room for good pieces. I can think of less than 20 great Alien and about the same Predator. Of those I don't think ANY have been for sale in years.
Paul explained the reason for no Alien or Predator license in another forum, think he just got tired of people still posting requests for Alien and Predator stuff on that forum since he had already explained why it won't happen anytime soon.

Seems to be that Sideshow is a big part of the problem. Apparently Sideshow is sitting on the license and have it locked up to a certain extent. Almost like the Spider-Man/Sony thing. Damn shame. :mad:

A new tidbit about the upcoming Terminator stuff...
Can't wait to share the 1/4 Battle Damaged Arnold, we just saw the files for printing and WOW!

Having the original CGI files from the film really helped.

As soon as I can get a pic I'll post it up!

:yess:
 
Paul has addressed that, will apparently depend on who Blomkamp goes with for the FX.
Personally, I hope it's anyone but ADI. :yuck
Had enough of their Alien designs over the years.

Hope it's Legacy or even Weta for that matter. Time for something fresh. I hope Blomkamp feels the same way. :pray:

Otherwise we'll get the same lousy warrior design ADI has been using since Resurrection, God! I hope not. :gah:
 
Do you work for Chronicle?

Haha, nope. Just a fan of what they're doing. I interact with Paul on the forums and have a few of their replicas on order. That's about it.

I just really appreciate the effort he puts into talking with the fans and finding out what they want. It's refreshing for a company to take that kind of interest.
 
I am planning on buying a 1:1 scale endo from sideshow, have you heard anything from Chronicle on when they are releasing their. My concern is buying an full scale endo from a movie that is likely to bomb!

My concern about buying a full scale Endo from Sideshow would be the lean. I've seen two of V.2. Both with a massive lean forward. It's a shame as I love it. I'll wait for info on Chronicles 1:1.

Who cares if the statue looks good?
As long as the don't put a 'GENISYS' plaque on all their items, like the 1:1 Bust.
Maybe they have to for the license :huh

So much cynicism :( T:G has had good word of mouth from what I'm hearing. I'd bet on it being better than T3 and T:S...also, Chronicle/Legacy are gonna produce something way better-made than Sideshow.
 
I'm sure the statue will look good but if they put a Genisys plaque on a full 1:1 endo that will cost thousands it will lose its appeal! That's why I'm leaning towards Sideshow's.

Paul hasn't given much info about the 1/1 scale full Endo yet, I'm really curious about the price vs The SS. Considering their prices on other things, I'm hopeful they continue the trend of being really reasonable. The SS price has always kept me away. Among other things I've heard about, like the leaning issue. :horror

Only details I've read so far is the new full size Endo came straight from Legacy themselves, they actually made it for Chronicle stright out of their master. That definitely makes me lean towards Chronicle over SS just for the authenticity alone. There is no other way to get a more precise and exact replica of an Endo. It just boils down to if you like the new design Legacy came up with.

Here's a pic of Paul with the new Endo Legacy sent them.. Yeah, think I want one.:yess:

The new look has really grown on me, I personally love how precise and complex it looks compared to the original but I get how some could hate it just because the original is so beloved.

As far as Genisys, I don't know if I'd say it's likely to bomb. I'd imagine it will actually make a big impact at the box office. The large general movie going public isn't so caught up on the super fan issues like a lot of the vocal fans on the Internet are.
I get it though, I was horrified to see those early publicity photos that were released before the trailer. My first reaction was WHY?? :slap:gah:

The more is I see now, the better this movie looks to me. There's been a few positive script reviews actually. Though I know a good script doesn't mean a good finished film, still encouraging to hear.

You can check them out here if you're curious, nothing too spoilery..

I'm going to go in hoping for the best and keep an open mind. At this point it's already better than Salvation in my eyes simply because we have a new Terminator movie with the ACTUAL Terminator in it. :yess:
One of the many reasons why Salvation just didn't feel right for me was no Arnold. :pfft:
 
I could see myself getting that 1/1 and keeping my T2 1/2 scale ones just so I have my bases covered. Will all come down to price and quality.

Nothing against the movie which my be good or bad. I don't like any Statue that has a plaque telling you what it is, pointless.
The Predator Maquette can be forgiven :D
 
Another pic of Paul with the new Endo, really like how complex it looks. So much going on in the shoulder/chest area. Really like the more complex and detailed look of the spine/neck as well.

I've seen a SS Endo at a local comic shop, and while it is impressive in person... The details on this new design look way more interesting to me. I really hope the price turns out to be reasonable, this might be my first full size Endo if so.

The only problem might be how big it will end up being with the new Endo Rifle it comes with. That new gun design is HUGE. :horror

Not sure how much space this guy will take up, depends on the final pose Chronicle decides to go with and how he'll be holding the weapon...

Dang, the detail in that 1:1 is incredible. I still prefer the original design as it's bulkier and meaner/more aggressive, and hope that maybe they'll get the license for that someday, but this will be hard to resist.

This company is like a dream come true for anyone who ends up falling in love with Genisys.
