I had a mistaken idea about how big Yaphet Kotto was - so I might not have noticed it, not when you did. But, yeah, in the context of the rest of the jumpsuit crew Ripley is now the odd one out in the size department. Look at her tiny little face.

What?
Oh... no, I wasn't implying that Weaver had died.
I was just showcasing the four Nostromo crew members, but I can see how it would seem that I was making an homage to those who are gone.
judging by the movie events, Lambert actress is next.What?

Director's Cut Cocoon scene. Ripley blasts Dallas with the Flamethrower, puts him out of his misery.

And since nobody asked, here's a pic of the 40th Anniversary version of NECA's alien:

Love what you did with the tail! I love that the tail is bendy, but it can be a pain in the ass to get it exactly the way you want.

I love it! I use same pose...i think this version is the best NECA 1979 Alien. But the Dome not so perfect...(on the side of the Head)

Thanks man! Yeah, it takes a bit of fiddling to get it in the sweet spot.
Agreed, this is the best one so far. The dome is an eyesore from the side, but I'm not brave enough to try to change it.

IMO the best Giger Alien by Neca is from the last wave... the dome is perfect (together with the bloody one). In the 40th anniversary is too transparent.

Unfortunately, mine has the from too blackened, otherwise, the "misting" is very good.
But what really kills it is the shape, it's too short and doesn't come down far enough in the front. The 35th anniversary figures had a much better shape.

Got to be a combination of different lenses, lighting, and paint work. I'll take any chance to slam NECA, but they've done a solid job on these characters IMO (crummy materials notwithstanding).
well, the real Ash figure looks exactly like the image on the right, and without any lense effects, i can confirm that.

Curious, do you think they could actually go there and give us the flying Kenner Alien Queen ? Or the marine that came with that huge warrior exoskeleton ?
