Seems like NECA ditched the teardrop tattoo. It's just as well, considering they couldn't figure out where the hell to put it on the prototype.

Thanks! No, I checked and no tattoo on mine either.
I just went back and looked at one of the proto shots and it has the tattoo buts its probably the 2-up. Too tiny a paint app for the actual figure probably.

No Adios on the smart gun either

Can the gun fold up like this
I tried to put her in this pose but I don't think the articulation will allow it and I didn't want to force it. And the connections for the smart gun are pretty fragile also.
Well considering that my HT loader broke at the shoulder and at the hydraulic tubes I'll have to agree with you.I plan on fixing my HT loader but I don't have space for the Neca as well. Maybe if I had the Neca Queen I'd consider it. I also have that little Loader with Marine statue that came with the CM game, I have a whole lot of loader at the moment!
Being an hour drive away I won't go back if they discount it further, wish I could if they go as far as $40.
Hah, I had the exact same breakages on my HT loader, a shoulder and every last one of the cables. With the aid of my brother I got the shoulder fixed but the hoses remain in a bag. I don't intend to fix them as I decided I don't need a 1:6 Powerloader anymore.

Great pics everyone! Now let's see NECA do Drake so I can be done with my Marines.

I believe there will be another marine announced next week. Randy hinted on Twitter that their Alien 30th anniversary banner will have to be changed soon.

...you know, they don't have to have only Aliens banners in there. There won't be any new marine announced next week. Maybe something to do with Terminator or TMNT

In hand they are amazing , a good review for these is need
Frost looks really good there. For some reason I was more worried about how he would turn out more than Vaz. He looks pretty spot on.

Got my Vaz and Frost today also
Vasquez
An awesome figure with excellent paint apps and sculpt. The only thing that I noticed is that the eye piece does not line up directly in front of her eye and takes a little bending upwards to make it line up correctly. The smartgun is awesome but seems pretty fragile, especially the handles which are brittle. It took a few minutes to figure out how to connect the articulated harness to Vaz and the gun itself but I think that I have it connected correctly.

Frost
A good figure but not as nice as Vasquez. The paint apps and sculpt are good but not great. The elbow joints on mine where frozen but a hair dryer fixed them no problem. A couple of things to note. Frost's shoulder lamp works with Hicks as would be expected. Also, a word of warning, the helmet that came with Frost will somewhat fit on Hicks but it will scar his hair. I learned this the hard way but I touched it up with a brown sharpie and its unnoticeable.

My current squad

Man, seeing them all together like that makes me realise how we really do need more of the squad to be made. They look really good together.
I want all the Marines. The depth of this line is so refreshing.

I am happy that with the Aliens line NECA are giving the human characters as much attention to being as much as the Aliens themselves. Compared to the Predator line we are getting way more humans.
Gives me more hope that we could really get Gorman, Burke, Clemens and Dillon.
Randy said Burke will happen next year. A figure of Paul Reiser!
He also said they reached out to Jim Cameron to make a figure but heard nothing back. That would have been cool.

They did confirm him ? Or just was a maybe ?
I thought it was more like they will see what they can do but not 100% certain. I'm guessing it will be an exclusive if he does happen.

That's what I thought too. I know Randy tweeted that he had spoken to Paul himself and it sounded like the guy was interested in getting a figure made of himself, and that Randy was wanting to talk things out with him. Its better than nothing like we are constantly getting with the actor for Apone.
Drake will be interesting to see how he turns out. He has quite a unique look facial wise and he is much taller than Vaz. Plus, I remember his smartgun being different as well right ?
