I don't how they could do it (and make it still look good), but I'd love for them to make an A3 fig that can stand up straight AND do crawling poses.

If not...then do a crawling pose...that's my vote.

I don't think it would be that difficult to engineer the articulation so the figure can stand up and do the crawling poses...
The design really lends itself to it. However, in an 18" scale figure it would be tough because of the weight. In 7" scale it wouldn't be an issue.

hate to burst everyone's bubble, but haven't Randy and Kyle both said they don't really have any interest in making this?

Kyle's not a big fan of the movie, but he likes the design alright and he did mention that he'd like to do it.

Thanks for the pics Sabres!
 
Yes!! Bring on the Dog!!

Standing and crawling poses would be awesome! but, if only one pose could be used, then i'd want a crawling dog please!! :pray:

Damn, if the head wasn't so deformed-looking, this would be a perfect Biomechanical version of the Dog Alien..

Thing is still awesome though..
 
Voted. Whilst on the subject, I recently got a Hot Toys Dog Alien. I love it to bits but its rear leg ball joints (hips) are really slack, like so slack it can't support its own weight. Any suggestions regarding increasing stiffness of a ball joint?
 
You might want to try putting a couple of drops of super-glue in the joint and keep moving it (so it doesn't stay stuck) until it dries. That helps sometimes.

I'm surprised at the lack of interest in these polls, I thought there were more Alien Saga fans around here.
 
Could it be that fans of the 7" type figures are getting fewer, even amongst NECAs biggest supporters here? A lot of us, rightly or wrongly, are getting pretty p!$$ed off at the paint and QC issues we've been experiencing on the smaller figures. I'm only continuing to buy them out of completism at this point. Had another T-1000s head break off last night.

Perhaps if were talking about 1/6 and 1/4 scales there'd be more interest here. NECA can put more quality into those sizes as we saw with the "1/4" scale P1. The 12" T2s had neater paint though not really any more complex than the smaller ones and they didn't suffer widescale breakages to my knowledge.
 
Here is a video to show what Hot Toys has done.

I apologize in advance. I just wanted a reason to post this video. :monkey3

After I received my 19 inch Pred, I lost much interest in their smaller figures..

I just received my first PF (Cyborg Maul), and now I've almost completely lost interest in them.. It's nice to have figures and statues of different sizes, and I will try to buy the smaller Pred figs (aliens are a must), but larger things will always come first now..just much more appealing.

keep in mind this is a SSC message board and most of us collect 1:6 scale and statues/props. if NECA had their own board, you'd get a better response. this probably isn't the best place to conduct a poll if you really expect NECA to make a figure based on it. and even if every Alien fan on here voted for this figure, NECA will blow it off with another excuse like they always do.
 
That might be true, but 7" figures are still NECA's bread and butter.
If we want to see more aliens from them, we'll have to start with the 7" scale...
An anyway, I really don't have that much room to house 20"+ aliens and preds. I can make room for 12" figures, but larger scale figures really use up way too much space for me.
Too bad NECA shies away from 1/6 scale, they could positively destroy the competition in terms of accuracy in that scale.

I couldn't agree more.
 
No, thoughtless opinion.

Many people simply do not have room for figures of that size.

12 inch scale figures are easier to display, to stand, etc..

People like to have options.
 
Dude, don't go parading your opinion as fact.
I have 18" scale, 12" and 7" scale figures of aliens and preds. And guess what? I like 12" better because 1. they are the high end of figures nowadays 2. they are easier to display.
Does that mean I don't like the other scales? No, I have a bit of everything.
But I don't go putting my own preference as fact.
And your analogy with T.V. screens is so off the mark it doesn't even bear consideration.
 
:exactly:

19 inch Pred, various 7 inch Preds/Aliens, various 1/6 Preds/Aliens, various Pred/Alien cosbabies + mez-itz..etc.
