Aliens Warrior lifesize head - Coolprops

[Centurion]

They said it would be cheaper than P2 bust, but apparently now their alien busts special edition are more expensive.
Not five order of same item of course, big chap, warrior, dog , resurrection warrior and the new born.

I don't envy you (because it's a lot $$ ), but that's going to look awesome together.

This hobby has become way too expensive to keep up with fully.

Ain't that the truth!

I was hoping to get four of those, I have no space for the Newborn otherwise I'd love it. However I am revising my expectations at this early stage so as not to be too disappointed. I may get one or two if I can. I'm so close to ordering the P2 also which puts these into even more doubt.

So true!
To be frank, it makes me think, with the total budget of all 5 alien busts, I can really spend that amount of cash on something 'useful' for the family.
They are just big toys only please me in the end...
But, I need them all!!!

Yeah, I am past treating this hobby like Pokemon though, I am done trying to catch em all.

Me too. I set out trying to collect, well, everything. I've given up. Sticking to Alien/Predator/Terminator Hot Toys only, with the aim of getting 1 x Pred lifesize bust, 1 x Alien lifesize, I've got the Chronicle Endoskull already. A 1/4 Endo, a 1/4 Alien maybe, couldn't resist an LSB of Grid if it happned, a 1/2 Arnie bust (chronicles), a 1/2 Robocop and I'm done!

All Chronicle and Coolprops!

That'll still amount to about 7 grand. I'd say that's fair for a lifetime. I'm a collector limited for space, always said i'd keep it to two doublecabs worth. Felt a weight off my shoulders when I finally let go of the idea of keeping up with HT DC/Marvel releases.

Coolprops posted pictures on their fb page. Will sideshow have a small batch of the 75 total pieces?

Nice, sucks that they are exclusive to Japan however...

So the exclusive is the blue version for Japan only and normal one is the one on first page of this thread?

Seems that way yes. I like the brown one, but it would be nice to have the option... And the Dog!

Mouth just looks jacked up to me.

 

[darkmummy]

On the web page, the release date of this exclusive version is around December this year.
So it seems the normal version will be pushed even later.
And the base is still the temporary one...

 

[Centurion]

Love the details!

I could only imagine the hell that would be raised if the P2 bust was Japan only as well. I don't get why they are making so few of these, especially with that quality. They could sell a ton of em in the US alone.

People like exclusivity...

Very true lol

"Long live low ES and exclusivity but only as long as I can get one too."

 

[azurepred]

well, there's exclusivity, and damn near impossible to get exclusivity. By todays standards, on something like this, even 300 would prolly sell like hot cakes.

"Long live low ES and exclusivity but only as long as I can get one too."

Missing the point. Japan exclusive means we don't even get a chance to buy one, not that it will be "exclusive".

There are always ways to import something.

There are always ways to import something.

We should not have to when they sell other stuff here through distributors. I can understand something like the BS with XM pieces, but they can't sell here. It would just add a ton of extra cost when Japan is not even an AvP market. What are they thinking?

 

[Asdf]

Yup... and paying top dollars for it.
