The Special Version is SICK! Most def the one too get. Thanks for posting thx217. Keep us updated on ordering details :)

Regarding the statue, they mention resin kit, does this mean the statue has too be built and painted or will they offer a painted kit as in the pictures above?
 
Great ... I dont do any painting or glueing myself. So i will need and would like too buy a fully painted kit ESP the Special. How much do you reckon it will sell for?
 
Read some of the comments on Roswell Japan's blog. Like us, the Japanese collectors are freaking out and asking for the release date and price. :rotfl

Thank you thx217. Man this is too beautiful. This is a alien statue that would be worth $800 - $900 dollars (if it is selling for that) not like the sideshow alien.
 
Limited to only 30 pieces?!?!

Holy crap...going to have to jump on that one quick when it goes up for pre-order.
 
I understand the statue in Giger's possesion has no elbow spikes (which is probably why the Marmit spikes are exaggerated, but they should at least add them in bc they are technically missing details...

I want the regular version -- the special is the idealized / enhanced paint job right?
 
Just got this from good folks at Roswell Japan. Looks like there will be a total of 3 versions. The good thing is, this time the editions are much friendlier if comparing with the first release. Really interested to see what the "Special Limited Edition" looks like.

"1/5 ALIEN 2nd Ver.

1.Special Ver. limited edition
We will provide a limited number of 30 with individually-numbered and Sano's
signature.

2. Special Ver.
We will provide almost 200.
No individually-numbered and Sano's signature.

3. Normal Ver.
We will provide almost 200.
No individually-numbered and Sano's signature, too.
Black-themed model.

Sorry, all the price have not yet been decided."

What weird timing. I was just searching for new info on this today, and here you post this. Awesome.

I think I'm down for a kit even though painting that rib pattern inside the dome is going to be very hard to make look right. Maybe the normal version with my own paint enhancement will be the way to go with this if the price difference isn't gigantic.

Still unsure ... will this require us to paint it ourselves or will it be like there Bust already painted?

also you guys have mentioned that you order from Hobby Search? Is this the site you guys were referring too https://www.1999.co.jp/?

Yup, a kit or normal would be great for mod or re-paint.

Yes, all three versions come fully finished. Yes that is HobbySearch's website. But you might need this one "https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/". :)

I.m so excited by this news...i think I prefer the black version even if the special colors version is more accurate...maybe its my attachment to the original kenner figure which was black...
