Aliens Diorama

[Seretur]

Ahhh! Thank you, Karma!

Also, may I point out that Sideshow did NOT make the hive environment, which would have made perfect sense. My hunch: proven to be right.

Also also, may I point out that this one has LESS of the environmental base, and so it should have a slightly lower price tag? Perhaps? Hunch: it won't.

Also also also, it's still a GREAT piece. Although I'll follow Abake's comments with great interest...

Mounted on the wall, this sucker would be staring down atcha

 

[Seretur]

They all would!

I love that about this line.

And I'm seriously thinking of mounting them in my toilet for that very reason.

 

[IronFingaz]

PRE-ORDERED!!!!

DAMN STRAIGHT!! Same here bro.... Had to do it. Too cool not to. Love the way it's set up, will look great in my Aliens collection.

 

[MaulFan]

Fantastic looking piece, and to me, $150 is a bargain for the detail in this piece.

 

[galactiboy]

I'm not feeling this one as much as the first Dio... I think it seems too posed to me with the pedestal and all. Still great looking, but less like a scene out of the movie.

 

[Trilogy]

Not into dio`s, but I`m a huge Aliens fan.

I may just have to pick this up.

Big pass for me!

I liked the A L I E N one, and although there's some great sculpting on show here it just isn't pushing my buttons, and why do companies always feel the need to plaster the movie logo on things. I feel it really detracts from the power of the piece, and dare I say cheapens it...I mean if you were going to buy this, did you 'need' to be told it was from A L I E N S...?

Note that last coment is ditto for the A L I E N one, I'd have to wall mount it or cover the logo.

i think it looks excellent , and with regards to the logos on all the dio's, they are removable.

 

[Seretur]

The base is removable in any case, so I'm not complaining about the logo.

Actually, if you display them with the logo base, you can use them for a museum display of the variances of alien designs in the movies.

Now to the sculpt -- I actually like the pose even better now than in the first preview pic, as it's apparently even more dynamic. And it's detailed to the gills. AND it actually DOES feature a bit of the hive encrustation!



Also: the tail is positioned very similarly to that in the first diorama, so these two will look great together. But not so similar as to appear to be cheap knock-offs. And the detail is AMAZING.

Also, I've made my peace with the man-in-suit vs. animatronic design differences. Both appeared on the screen, so technically both should be canon, right?

(And it appears that we'll be getting a Predator dio next. I'll pass on that...)

 

[IronFingaz]

Pre-ordered!!! Now i wonder if i should get the first one

Looking forward to see which Predator they announce next. I hope it's from the original Predator, in a tree or some s***

 

[Stendec]

The Alien looks fantastic in this piece . . . wow!

Not much of a diorama going on in this diorama though and the Aliens logo is rather distracting.

 

[rotwang]

Pre-ordered!!!

me too!

Yes, but for people who want to table-top display, it's there, so I can see where the argument comes in. Maybe the base can go either side and people could just put it in backwards.

 

[IronFingaz]

me too!
