yup, i agree... i can't see them making anymore marines... and if they did, the only one i'd want is Bishop.

I doubt they'll do any more, but if they do, I'd hope for Gorman. Of course, I'd rather have Bishop, but hey, I'll take what I can get!

hmm... not sure since i haven't gotten any of the marines and doubt that i will pay the price they are asking.

agreed. those things are a joke now. the second they came out they were bought up by ebay scalpers.
if i could just walk into a walmart and grab some, i'd get them. but, at this point, i'd rather just get the snap kits and save $$ and space.
they can wait until i have more money than sense.

Afraid I have to agree with most here. As much as I'd like them to make at least one more wave of Marines (including Bishop), it's probably never gonna happen. Queenie is all I'm thinking about now. Let's hope we get some good news soon!

Voted "All". A guy can dream, can't he? 
Maybe the Aliens: CM game might revive interest in the line. These things are like crack to me so, as long as HT keep pushing, I'll keep buying!

Frost would be cool...

Frosty would be one of my top picks, too. Looks like we'll end up having to kit-bash any of those other characters we want, though!
Hicks: "Looks like the new lieutenant's too good to eat with the rest of us grunts."
Frost:"That boy's definitely got a corn cobb up his a$$!"

Tragically, the ALIENS line will end with a Queen if they can pull it off and that's about it, we'll never get a Bishop who should have been done if no one else.

Yes, Bishop and Newt are arguably a lot more important than Vasquez or Drake, but oh well.
It's understandable from the standpoint of the type of figures Hot Toys had been producing up until they began the MMS line, though. Most of HT's core customers were military collectors, so I doubt Bishop and Newt would've sold very well compared to the M56 smart-gun wielding badasses Drake and Vas, at least in the beginning.
For what it's worth, Hicks was still available at retail up until around this time last year in Japan, and all of the others can still be had for the same price in a couple of places. As much as we all want Newt, Bishop and some of the others, HT probably just doesn't see enough profit in it. I pray they're still planning to make Queenie, though. They just have to make her before the line fizzles out completely!
