NECA: Alien Movie Franchise Figures

[KoBE]

From just now on NECA's website:

"Randy also revealed a figure of actor Michael Biehn as Dwayne Hicks from Aliens, but Kyle Reese was just too perfect not to show."

Holding my response about my near-complete disagreement with Randy's last comment, what's up with saying Randy revealed Hicks? I don't think that happened.

Randy just clarified:
"more of revealed he is happening, we have not shown him yet and won't for some time"

Kyle Reese too perfect-great Joke^^

Hudson are damn perfect.

 

[crazypredator2]

maybe they will get hicks right too.

When asked on twitter: "Hicks and Hudson are made, Series 2 is not announced maybe still trying to get likness rights, but who would you guys want?"

NECA responded: "not even looking into this right now. There are variants to all 3 new figures so those will be spread out first"

That leads me to believe that series 1 will have Hicks, Hudson and An Alien warrior, and series 2 will be variants of Hicks Hudson and the Alien Warrior, I.E.:"game over man!" head, helmeted heads, or battle damaged Warrior Alien.

I think your logic is sound!

Cannot go wrong with multiple versions of Hicks and Hudson. My theory is:
- Series 1 is Headset Hicks and "Game over man" Hudson as shown: at SDCC, and new sculpted Alien,

- Series 2 is Hive Hicks with shotgun and holster maybe even an egg with dead facehugger (like McFarlane's collectors club which would be awesome) and Helmeted Hudson, and battle damaged Alien. I also think they will release an acid splashed/battle damaged Hicks which would be icing on the cake.

-Series 3 will be Drake, Vasquez and Apone and possibly the release of the Alien Queen.

-Series 4 (which I think will be there last unless they get Weaver's likeness to do Ripley and i have a gut feeling they will then go into the original Alien and do Ash, Dallas and Parker and then do Alien 3 afterwards) will consist of a variant Vasquez without the smart gun gear and just her handgun, handgun holster and pulse rifle, variant Drake without smart-gun gear and feature with a flamethrower (look right before he dies) and a 2nd acid splashed head which would rock

Bigger than the knee height McFarlane ones hopefully.

 

[Viking Spawn]

13"? Sweet! This is great news! Probably see this at Toy Fair!

 

[Johnny Utah]

That's 2013.

 

[zuckuss77]

Why 13" , we have 1/4 figures????

 

[Sabres21768]

Why 13" , we have 1/4 figures????

They meant 2013...not 13 inches.

 

[Viking Spawn]

Oh. Aw crap.

 

[The Rider]

It was cool if neca uses the new transculent Plastic like the rocky 4 figures.
This new Plastic looks more realistic.

NECA needs to hurry up with a Hicks reveal! I'm dying to see him. I have been waiting for a Hicks figure with a true Biehn likeness since I've seen the film. Now, Hot Toys needs to follow and redo Hicks and the rest of the marines. Such an easy marketing move. The line would be so damn popular
