Go for it, man. It's a great piece! Thanks for the comment.

Great vid, good commentary and video quality. I agree it is one of the best Alien pieces out there. I was lucky to get one a while back for a decent price, and I see these are starting to creep up again as more people see how great it is.

Thanks a lot, mate. Yea, I suppose it's getting even more popular right now that we have hype over the new Alien movie coming up. It's a great piece.

Nice review, been looking one for a while now with no luck. Want to sell it?

 

[dao2]

Long but nice review, gj

Hehe, no I definitely won't. This is a keeper!

Long but nice review, gj

Thanks. Yea, really keep it in mind that I want to keep it short, but I just get carried away sometimes.

I love the look of this piece. The pose looks great. The design of Stan Winston's warrior has always been my favorite. Wish they would have stuck with it throughout the years.

I've been so disappointed with ADI's take on the warrior ever since Resurrection.

Really hope whatever Blomkamp does with his movie, they go back to the Aliens style warrior.

With his teasing of bringing back Hicks, I hope he doesn't turn around and ruin it by bringing up memories of Resurrection by using ADI's design. >____<

Anyways, congrats to all who picked this piece up. It looks great.

I hope they go back even further to Gigers original Alien.

 

[CallMe_Snake]

For sure, anything but ADI's look for me would be a massive step in the right direction.

I hope they go back even further to Gigers original Alien.

Agreed. Giger's Alien all the way.

Hey guys, what is the market value for this beast? I checked eBay but not enough data. Only one sold for $1025 but without an original box. Did anyone buy this recently?

I would say around $1500. Seen them sell less, a couple for more. That one for $1025 was a deal even without the box.

 

[dao2]

It was, and I got it but unfortunately it arrived broken (few chips on the right side of the body and broken off dorsal tubes and couple small chips on the base) The seller is quite nice though and offered to immediately refund me however I said I can wait and work with him to talk to UPS as I would hate to be out the money if I was in his position. Hopefully should be ok, I know getting restitution from UPS is a ***** but they packed and shipped the statue so they should be responsible :|

 

[Vitus]

Sorry man, That sucks!
If I didn't have the box I don't think I would have tried to ship the base and the statue in the same box... the base is so heavy and could crush everything else!

I think I have just found the holy grail this afternoon in the UK .... I managed to get 2 "YES 2" HCG GIGER ALIENS brand new sealed in their boxes from some dude selling them for quick cash £1000 the pair !
Cash was out quicker than my purple headed warrior in a brothel
Just set one of these babies up next to my Alien warrior maquette and under my signed Sigourney canvas who I had the honor of meeting last week in person.
All I need to do now is put green led lights in the case and my framed picture with Sigourney and the power loader under the picture light.
I will be one very happy bunny.

You're kidding? I've been looking for one for years. Are you interested in letting the second one go?

 

[kingkarl]

Seriously mate I had to pinch myself ...... my mate is begging me to sell the second one and just offered me £750 !
I think these are worth a pretty penny to be honest , my bank balance was not happy but it just had to be done.
How much are these worth fella about £750 ? ..... I saw one listed this week on evil bay for £865 !
