I’m not…
I agree with you the head is a little too transparent …going to fix that later.

I like to see that video.

I just received this figure today and it was worth it. It's well over 18 inches and more close to 22 inches

It's 18" scale (meaning that a 6 foot human would be 18"). The alien is taller than a human, thus the 22-23 inch size.

my spencer's finally got this bad boy in. got the call today that they had received 2. i picked one up and my buddy the other. i couldnt resist getting another one. i originally bought from bbts. but for $40 why not have 2??? worth every penny.

Damn, Bought one today, I know the price is really cheap...but that thing sure is caca.....feels like a really really cheap toy in hand...I'm actually thinking about throwing it to the thrash....

LOL! Finally! Someone who doesnt think NECA is the second coming.

 

[icruise]

I don't think most people here care one way or about NECA as a company. It's this particular figure we like. And I couldn't disagree more with his opinion. I mean, yeah it's a figure made of plastic. I'm not sure what you expect it to feel like. But the sculpting and paint really take it to another level IMHO.

I dunno....a few people here say nothing negetive about NECA. So, I found it funny.

Watcha everyone, I'm back with some more pics, this time of my newly painted 22" menacing my clearly unimpressed cat!

I'm glad I got the 18" scale version, as much as it sucks up space, the 7" scale version is a piece of ^^^^. I've gone through 2 now, even with heating the legs, the right leg knee hinge keeps snapping. All the joints are very stiff on the small one, like they all were glued. I own almost a dozen NECA figures and this is the first time I've ever witnessed problems like this and it's quite frustrating since it's with a desired figure.

 

[icruise]

Odd, mine is fine. It's not nearly as impressive looking as the big "big chap" though.

 

[MaulFan]

I'm going to try a third one and see how my luck works out. It's a wave 2 small one cuz it has the white frosted dome. Just annoying cuz the pose in the blister sucks so I want to at least pose it once nicely, if the joints lock up again I don't care after that.

BIG Big Chap is impressive, but it's a space eater and a ^^^^^ to work with for my photos, I wanted the little one to do some picture work with and it's much easier to store and show.

 

[icruise]

By the way, Lovecrafty, that looks great. I really do think these can substitute for something like the cinemaquette, especially with a repaint and a base.

 

[DSD]

Yay Lovecrafty! Looks awesome.

 

[Lovecrafty]

Cheers!

Some more pics for you, taken in in my garden in twilight
