Am I alone in thinking it looks like ****. Less Alien Warrior and more like a man in a suit. Every director does its best to hide stuff on screen that makes a man in a suit look like a man in a suit. Hence why Ridley Scott cut out most of the Alien moving around out of the film. And 'high end' figure collectors want 'movie' accuracy and thus want a man in a suit figure. I don't get it.
 
Movie version:) and which version is more accurate? Hot toys or neca 1/4?
 
What's wrong with the arms?

the arms are a fusion between the puppet and the man in suit versions. In the movie we have two alien warrior versions.
This is the puppet:

The arm spurs are absent in this version.
 
The teeth ought to be more narrow. I get a bit of a Tsukuda vibe from the rounded sculpt style of the head, but that could just be me.
 
Well, not surprisingly, it looks a lot better in the moodily lit professional photos.
But, it's still not accurate enough for me to fork out that amount of money. Actually, no amount of money... :lol

I'm glad a lot of people will get a Hot Toys alien to display, but I'll just stick to NECA's figures for now.
Looking forward to seeing in hand pics of this one!
 
Really puts things into perspective when a unique figure like this is put up for pre-order priced $20 less than Sideshow's Rogue Leader Luke which is far more basic.
 
why is this $250 if they reused a bunch of stuff from big chap? They'd sell way more of these @ $200
 
considering I'm a life long Aliens fan and it is my favorite film, I will be getting this. So far I have the original release of the Alien warrior, the AVP alien, and I will be getting this one. Hopefully it holds up better than the first release, I had to pack the original up because the joints fell apart, the rubber was fine though, I never had an issue with the rubber on hot toys figures.
 
Still wish it were slimmer in the torso. But hey, beggars can't be choosers.

Happy to see any life left in an essentially dead and dated franchise.

Maybe for HT but for Neca, you couldn't beat this franchise down with a stick, too many collectors invested in the line :lol
