NECAs paint apps aren't consistent enough for me to pre-order or order online. Im too picky :lol

The only store in my part of Ireland that gets them is a 40 minute commute. Not worth the trip for the chance that they won't have them unless I happen to be going into the city for other stuff like clothes. I guess I could call them up but I have a bit of a phone phobia.

......wha?
 
If he means talking on the phone, I have a slight 'phobia' of sorts too. I never like calling up stores and people I don't know to ask questions - I always worried I'm gonna get tongue-tied or somehow not make sense to the person and so I resist making such calls. And if I do make such a call, there's a lot of hesitating, even running through my side of the conversation aloud, and doing nonsense like writing down all my questions to ensure I don't forget. It's not the bane of my life or anything though - just a funny thing. Maybe crazy, I don't know.

Exactly my problem. I find myself entering the phone number but then hesitating till eventually the number disappears and I have to enter it again. I have to call up the hotel where I booked my wedding to cancel it - not looking forward to it. Kinda been procrastinating on it.
 
Heh, I do that too - start putting in the number and then stop. Sometimes I'll even get a little drunk if it's an important call I must make.

Imagine if we called each other. Madness that would be!
 
cool beans.

will order this soon, are they focusing now on Alien?

that will be the first Alien action figures for me, and i hope they are good.

and can someone tell me if NECA figures have some problems?
also i hope they make more in the future.

I don't have a phobia or anything but I hate that the people that answer sometimes sound like you are being such an annoyance.... They are being paid to answer the phones, yet you call and they sound mad that you are bothering them so much. I really hate that.

I have a little bit of an accent so it gets worst when they don't understand me and I have to ask for the same thing 3 times :gah:

Not sure when NECA will release the newly sculpted Giger alien, but I would think it shouldn't be far off, since it should have many parts in common with the Aliens one.

As for problems, NECA have suffered quite a lot because of QC issues in the past (stuck articulation, bad paint apps, figures broken in the packaging), but they seem to have stepped up their game lately, with better paint apps and no breakage.

They will release more aliens though, that's for sure.

Many thanks for the heads up :)
I can't wait to see more pictures.
 
So, how many Warrior Aliens is everyone planning on buying? I will get 10 of each color, for a total of 20 Aliens. I plan on making a huge hive diorama with them. I already got the money saved up for 'em, they just need to get here!
