This is a Hot Toys Aliens Corporal Hicks. This figure is as advertised with no packaging (although I'll ensure for the buyer that it's super safely packaged) and comes with everything in the pic.
The pic attached isn't great as I seem to be having some technical issues uploading and just managed this one. Any interested parties should use this image as aguide and any serious buyers drop me a pm and I'll email some better pics.
This figure has been extensively customized to make it as screen accurate as possible. These include:
HEAD SCULPT
The head slept is a SHH (Spiky hair Hicks) by figure master Les Walker. These sculpts are pretty rare as Les discontinued production some time ago. This sculpt was painted by Les, and then repainted by one of the best painters in the field Darren Carnall. The pics really don't do the paint justice.
HEADSET
The headset was scratch built and painted (weathered) by Darren Carnall.
ARMOR
The armour has been weathered and painted for battle damaged effect by Darren Carnall who did a great job making it realistic and subtle. Again the pics don't do it justice. Darren also added movie accurate armour details on the back of the armour that include "lifer" and the Japanese Knot character which can be seen in the pics.
BDU (uniform)
The Uniform was one of a special commissioned set that I got from the SSF forum. The arms have been cut and rolled to the top of the arms to make it screen accurate.
BOOTS
The stock boots were swapped out for accurate jungle boots.
KNIFE
The bandolier webbing was cut off and a Gerber Knife attached.
BODY
The stock body was swapped out to a new True Type
THINGS TO NOTE:
As stated above this figure is not complete and comes only with what is pictured. Also the back of the armour where the lamp is connected has broken off. I still have the bit that broke and I'm sure it can be sorted with a bit of glue or soldering iron. I've left it off as I wanted a later in the movie Hicks.
Any questions then feel free to get in touch. I'm preferably looking for a UK buyer, but if other are interested drop me a line and I'm sure we can sort shipping prices out etc. Looking for £450 for this, so drop me a line or make me an offer.
