Well if the movie turtles are going to be my farewell to Neca figures for a while, at least I’m leaving the company for with a bang
Damn you Neca.. work out something with Target or Walmart ASAP ..those Freddy accessories look great
So easy for them to sell at Target..perfect spot would be put Neca in the back video section where the POPs are ..simple
Target has too many aisles of toys that don’t sell, you can shorten one and make it a Neca section
I buy blind all the time. I just accept it...well, not without comment if the paint is bad...but I accept it. Oftentimes I'm buying multiples anyway.

Randy confirmed Gamestop is one retailer that will start stocking NECA figures. Specifically mentioned Predators, but I would assume Aliens as well. He also said that there would be more announcements next month.
Hmm, ok , hope they make a section..GS has too much clutter

Total noob question: is there any chance that we will get NECA colonial marines for the remaining marines like Drake, Apone etc...
Drake, yes, they've been in contact with Mark Rolston and it seemed like things went well there. Apone, probably not as NECA can't get an answer from Al Matthews.
Everyone else, who knows. Gorman would be my next preference given how long he survived in the film.

Aside from Apone, Vasquez, Drake, Hikes, Hudson, Frost and Gorman, were there any other marines? I seem to remember a medic girl. Anyone else? The movie always made me feel like there was about 20+ marines but that is all I can remember. Also the two pilots.
Yes there was Ferro (pilot) and Spunkmeyer (co-pilot) - both actors very much on the convention scene and happy to sign autographs etc. As mentioned, the female medic is Dietrich (the actress is also on the convention scene and happy to sign autographs). Lastly two more marines Crowe (marine with pulse riffle - had one line in the movie) and Wierzbowski (a marine with a flamethrower - only line was a scream when he is killed off camera) - both characters were played by stuntmen who have sadly passed away.
Gorman, Drake, Dietrich, Crowe, Wierzbowski, Ferro & Spunkmeyer are the members of the marine squad that haven't yet been made.
NECA has actually already done a fantastic job in making Ripley, Hicks, Hudson, Vasquez, Frost, Bishop, Burke and Newt of the 1986 cast. We never got that quantity of characters in the McFarlane days - I have the utmost respect for them even if they made nothing else...but I think we can expect Drake at a minimum to add to all those. Randy basically had no choice but to admit to that after Mark Rolston spoke to fans about it on twitter

I’m with you on this sentiment! Im so appreciative of what they’ve already given us, and do expect drake still from the hints. But even if we get nothing else from aliens, they’ve given us enough to make some really awesome displays from the movie.
I’ll never part with my marines, queen, loader, blue warriors, etc.. Theyre among my favorite things I’ve collected. Honestly I get more enjoyment from them then I ever have from my fancy and expensive 1/6 figures, statues, and premium format figures.

I can see them doing a Nostromo-attire Dallas and a hair-tied-up version of Ripley...optimistic maybe.
What does it matter if I can’t see them in person first
Hopefully the rumor of Gamestop is true

I'd rather they make a figure of that weak, hussy, drop-ship pilot than overrated Drake or simulation drop Gorman.

I am super obsessed with this line of action figures. I used to see them in the boxes at comic stores and always thought they looked terrible in the box. Then I bought Hiks and Hudson and was amazed how good they look out of the box. Then came Vasquez. Finally I took the plunge with the Covenant Xenomorph and it looks awesome. I don’t get why I awaits think a figure lo Is terrible when in the box.

Maybe they would go the route of a multi-pack or something of the Alien crew - released in twos or threes - rather than individual figures that would probably sit on the shelf, which is what I'd be afraid of. I prefer individual figures...maybe if they included more accessories or something to help them sell. I don't know how the rights to a likeness of John Hurt would work now that he has passed. I would love it though if we saw more Nostromo crew.
I totally agree with u , I’m a huge fan of all these . Even the bad joints , paint apps, I didn’t care ..
And in package not a fan of most figures, like marvel legends in the package look bad to me .
I bought the new black Spider-Man for fun and I got hooked they are so much fun and look great to me
