NECA's 18" ALIEN

[shockwave]

Given the trend they've set, NECA usually posted packaged pictures a week or two before they hit stores, so I'd say at the moment the big thing to keep an eye out for is an update to NECA's site.

And/or some fellow Alien fan will post pics here...

I just ordered a case of these yesterday. Can't wait. Got a great deal on it too.

 

[Reinhardt]

sounds good Sean. thanks. now it's just a matter of waiting... we haven't even seen final production pieces either... hopefully the paint apps will stay similar to their prototype, which looks fantastic.

 

[Figurefreaks]

I now I’m going to order it but I will wait for the final production pictures before I do so.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Why did you order a case?

 

[abake]

Because that's what true fans do!

Anyway, we need more people like him, so that NECA make enough money to consider doing a 1/6 scale version.

 

[oaktown2000]

Why did you order a case?

Well...first..there's only 2 in a case....so it's not that drastic. And second...for the price I got on a case as opposed to just one....it made more sense to get a case. I'll open one...and keep the other sealed........until i can cash it in and make millions off it

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Oh, I thought that there'd be like 5 in a case, that's all, and if you got it for a good price then why not?

do they have to have a license for a 1/6th version of this ? i was thinking that they had to make it at a different scale for legal reasons.............somebody correct me if im wrong.

 

[abake]

As far as I know, it's just a matter of profitability.

It has been too long since we last saw pics of this baby, so let us fix that:

 

[Sabres21768]

[Figurefreaks]

Still looks amazing! ...can't wait.

 

[abake]

YES!!

Due out this month right?

I certainly hope so.
Although didn't it say "Summer" at the last comic con or whatever in NY? Would that mean June?

 

[barryo]

just got done watching alien on encore............got me amped for this all over again !!!!!

 

[abake]

How's about a good ole' face-off?

Sorry, don't have any photo editing tools on this computer to have them actually facing-off...

 

[FACEBOX]

Definitely Medicom for me.
I just don't like seeing the eye sockets.

 

[darkfaerytales]

Definitely Medicom for me.
I just don't like seeing the eye sockets.

i think same as you also i add that hate that horizontal seams in the back of the head...

 

[Sabres21768]

Both figures kick major ass and will be in my collection.

Come on SS, get that Medicom!!

I checked NECA's website over the weekend . The release date is still May '08. https://necaonline.com/product/detail/51403. Curious why they haven't updated their site? I hope they haven't changed the release date...
