Giger Alien PF - 2010

[Webb]

What does that mean?

I've been asking in the form for alien/aliens/alien queen maquettes for a while and thankfully sideshow are slowly making these and doing an excellent job on the Alien 3 and Aliens statues so far!
The CM Alien piece is an excellent statue and has THE MAN - H.R Giger's approval - the only thing they missed was getting the skin right it is a bit dried out looking and not the rubbery or whale skin sort of look it had in the film. I doubt the Sideshow pose will be like the CM one, but PLEASE no more crouching poses for the Alien Sideshow!

What does that mean?

I scratched the head for a while too... What? Lock up the pencil case? Black bag?

Wallet. Needs a plastic apple next to it for scale.

 

[A-1188]

Sorry if my question might seem irelevant, but has it been confirmed by Sideshow that they will make Colonial Marine PFs?

[CelticPredator]

My wallet would kick MY ass if I didn't give up cash for an good Alien.

 

[CelticPredator]

Man, there are some sick friggin' reference pics in this thread already. Wow! Thanks to all who posted those.

I heard that. I'm already not interested too much in the HT since I have the Neca which, aside from ugly articulation joints and cheap skull paint job, is extremely accurate.

May I sound off on the whole PF vs Maquette thing everybody is hung up on and confused about here? The question asked refers to it as a PF, but Sideshow never directly referred to it as PF. Sideshow's confirmation only suggests scale (PF and maquettes are both 1/4 scale), but they will most definitely refer to it as a maquette when they announce it. Human characters are refered to as Premium Format as opposed to 1/6 scale, but creatures have always been maquettes.

This is likely Sideshow's use of the term 'Premium' Format.

from Dictionary.com

Premium:–adjective
10. of exceptional quality or greater value than others of its kind; superior:
11. of higher price or cost.

Yeah, that about sums it up, doesn't it?

And here is Maquette:–noun
a small model or study in three dimensions for either a sculptural or an architectural project.
