I was lucky enough at first to be able to reserve one of these busts -- but I decided to cancel in case there was a full bodied alien - I'm glad I did, because I don't know if I'd be able to get the statue after having bought the bust -- not with my other collections, so I had to make that really tough decision to pass -- I'm just happy they are finally offering the full bodied version in 1/5 scale -- same scale as the Tsukuda....though the Roswell piece is taller =)

Those are great pics.

I'm totally obsessed with anticipation over the full figure pre-order.

Yeah, they're sold out.

The busts are all long gone. But the current owners can always sell it on eBay or wherever and whenever they want. Limited at 100 pcs, I don't see the owners(mostly collectors in Japan) will sell it anytime soon. I know I'm not.

It's another story if a life size from Sano is coming, which is not impossible but it's not happening, for now.

oooh lifesize...

I'm happy for now with the 1/5 -- I was kinda hoping it's be the same scale as the Marmit since it's more accurate...I like my Marmit, but I LOOOVE the Sano sculpt...happy that it's not only licensed, but probably the best sculpt I've ever seen -- and even though the lifesize statue seems to be lacking them, I'd really like for him to add the elbow spikes -- seems incomplete without 'em

Is the 1/5 sold out? ____, I haven't seen this thread for a month. I hope I can still snag a 1/5. This would be my Alien centerpiece.

The 1/5 hasn't been released yet ... we are all waiting on the edge of our seat for a pre-order and price announcement. Hopefully we will get one by end of year

so are these more accurate then the 1/4 SS maquette? The head portion of it anyways............

Looks so nice, but seems like it will be so expensive too.

 

[SilentSurfer]

This is the only Alien I will ever need. I love the museum pose. It will go great with my 1/4 full body Queen from the original molds.
