Grid Alien vs AVPR Alien

[denger4000]

Besides the "nethead", what's the difference?

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Hands, feet, and entire head(more than the dome).

 

[abake]

And the paint apps.

 

[FACEBOX]

AVP

AVP-R

Its quite different, although I found the AVP-R to be really unstable... not sure if I got a bad one, but he didn't stand well and had very weak ankles.

I just found out there was a non grid AVP alien

Pull the feet off. I'd be you will find cracks in the socket inside the feet causing weak ankles.

I have to admit I prefer the straight AvP ALIEN https://www.mwctoys.com/REVIEW_112906b.htm
to the

AvP:R

by a wide country mile!

There are some comp shots in the second review above.

Yeah, I really liked the AvP:R Alien when I first got it. But now after looking at my Grid Alien, I like it alot more now. Although my AvP:R has no problems whatsoever except for some serious paint peeling on the abdominal area.

I never liked the AVP:R Alien's head from the front. His mouth looks a little squished, plus the width of his entire head seems thin:

Having that said, I love my Grid Alien.

I always thought the AVP-R alien looked better than the AVP one, especially the ridged head design.

 

[Blackhole]

AVP Alien is better, I don't like the buck-teeth of the AVP-R alien...

And Grid Alien is awesome...

I'm pretty sure it did, but can't remember as I sold it off a long time ago.

And Denger; the Grid Alien I think is the same color scheme as the regular AVP warrior (just the damage is added) but there was also a brown version... which too me looked pretty stupid.

Nooooooooo!

I have to disagree, I know it's horses for courses, but I swear if Cameron had made the sequel to 'Steamboat Willy' we'd have had hundreds of Mickies with square ears, just because he could!.

I actually would've gone for the Brown Version originally (he had brown and some grey areas so it's a bit more complex in the paint department, plus they painted around the edges of the dome to better fade into his skin color; the regular AVP Aliens have grey skin so the dome makes a big contrast).
Still, I wanted a Dog Alien and didn't want similar-looking colors, so I'm not sweatin' the Grid. He's great.

I didn't say the AVP-R alien looked better than Cameron's alien...I only compared the AVP ones. Frankly though going back on the AVP-R alien, I can't stop marveling at the dome's design - so much going on there...that's the only thing I like from the entire body.

That would be considered as a problem.

 

[Predator vs. Alien]

Oh I know, but I've got 2 and the other has nothing wrong with it. And I meant to say minor paint peeling
