NECA: Alien Movie Franchise Figures

[CaLizFyNesT]

Same here. Hopefully the black alien will be released as a single carded figure.

I'm crossing my fingers. I don't see why they wouldn't. It will be an easy sell since they already have the figure made.

I got Hicks and Hudson the other day, awesome figures. Some of my favorites from NECA. I might keep them packaged up to avoid cluttering my already cluttered shelves .

LOL

Man they don't (sell us cheap) enough for this sh&$%...



But in all seriousness. Still a dream come true for the fact they are even attempting. I think I was the first the start the *****ing, but I want to be crystal clear: I will complain about gripes of Aliens (and specifically USCM) figures any day of the week. Neca doesnt have to worry until people STOP compaining (that means the people no longer care).

I was actually going for ''what? Is that a joke?''

What figures are you referring too? I'm in canada, some here cost $18 and predator and alien figs cost $22, the difference I see between the prices is A) the licenses and B) the amount of joints that get put into a figure, and the type of plastics used

I remember seeing the Hunger games figures for like 10 bucks. Now I know they are smaller, but still the price comparison to Predator figures is almost double the price.

I also remember seeing others I don't remember exactly but they would be like 14 at the most.

I think the Pacific Rim and Lone Ranger figures are $14.99 at TRU.

You think correctly. Bought me a Crimson Typhoon and the two newest Dutch figures today. Both Dutches were $16.99 whereas Crimson Typhoon was $14.99.

Kind of odd. Crimson Typhoon is larger, far more complex and looks to be painted a bit better.

Here are 3 more of my custom Marines.

An Officer, a Heavy Gunner, and an "acid scarred" Marine.

Very cool. I'm planning on making customs of my own using the heads of DST's Battlestar Galactica and Stargate figures, and Mattels WWE figures. I would say I have enough heads for about 15 unique marines.

Yeah that's what I don't understand. I guess they charge more because they know people will buy it?
or was it because the Predator License cost more money? I dont know. All I know is that the most expensive NECA figures right now are the Predator figs.

 

[CelticPredator]

NECA makes no sense. They never have, and never will.

 

[Boba Ben]

They should make Ferro. Nobody would buy her, but I would.

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

As long as she's not as derpy as the rest of the marines. My god.

I went to TRU yesterday and the only ALIENS figures they had were one of Hudson. Didn't look as bad as he has in photos, but he still looked stupid enough for me to not buy.

It's sad because their Dutch figures are just phenomenal. I mean it's as if they actually shrunk Arnold. The paint, the sculpt, the accessories...it's all just perfect.

I think part of it is TRU (I've seen the same figs for 16.99 at one TRU, then 17.99 at another TRU). And another part has got to be licensing costs..

The most expensive NECA 7" figures right now are from the video game lines actually. Gordon Freeman from Half Life runs $24.99, Chell from Portal is $22.99, etc.. Pretty sure the Team Fortress figures are in the 20's too.

 

[Evil_Ash]

I do but just the one which I've opened.

That's fine I don't mind if it's loose.

 

[Jace Madan]

For us customizers, NECA posted on thier twitter that the series 2 Marine will come with sleeved arms, but will most likely NOT be coming with a helmet. So it looks like the 2-packs are gonna be the only way to get the helmets for now.

 

[BuGz]

I think the new Marine will defo be Apone. Only a few marines had oonger sleeves in the movie. Apone most known.

Still loving these new warrior's.

sadly, Randy (neca) intimated that the marine in series 2 will not actually be a marine from the film. If true, and I think it is, that is some really bad news. In fact, without explicitly stating it, randy made it sound like neca will not be including any additional marines in the line...at least in the near future. Bishop has been confirmed, but he's not a marine. I so hope im wrong. Im a big fan of series 1, but if the marines from the film aren't going to be the backbone of the line, this re-launch isn't going to make it very far. Come on, neca...spring for the likeness rights.

 

[commandernarra]

Here's a few of the custom Marines I'm working on...

Fantastic. I want to start some custom also. What are you using and what other figure lines out there may be compatible?..Walking Dead figures at all?
