The Medicom Alien Review (by abake)

Depends on what your personal preferences are...
I love mine, although it is not 1/6 scale and the paint apps are crap.

It is tiny, just barely 12" if that. Very skinny, and, as mentioned, paint apps suck. I was surprised how small it was when I first saw it in person.

Likenesswise, it does have a very nice sculpt. That's all it's got going for it.

NOT WORTH THE MONEY.

Go with the NECA 22", I love mine!!

If you can get it for a cheap price it's worth it, other than that the paint looks like poop.

regardless of scale it looks to be a fantastic figure.
If your exclusivley a 1/6 scale figure collector though its not ideal.

I love mine.

I don't really care about matching scale with other pieces.

It's a great piece all by itself.

And for fun...a quick shot with the original Medicom Alien.

I second that.

Nice pics, Sabres. Too bad it doesn't say "actual size" on the full body shots.

This one says it all for me.

Not worth the money, but I like it. Much detail, and very Giger-esque.

 

[A.L.I.E.N]

I'l be waiting for the HT version!

 

[Sabres21768]

I second that.

Nice pics, Sabres. Too bad it doesn't say "actual size" on the full body shots.

Actual size to what though?

It was never meant to be 1:6.

Just because it's not in scale with Hot Toys figs, doesn't mean it's not a good Alien fig.

The box itself doesn't say anywhere that it is a 1/6 sale figure, so I agree with Sabres.
It's too bad it's not 1/6, but that's life.

And since we're having fun with pics, here's a couple!

I just won a Medicom Alien on eBay for what in the UK is a very reasonable price. Forbidden Planet in Shaftesbury Avenue wanted £135 for it, and I got it for about £50.

I bet I get stung for customs charges though!

Still looking for a deal on this figure myself...

 

[abake]

That a great price. Congrats!
