HCG Nostromo Alien

[clutch]

I hope they don't flub up. Been wanting a Nostromo for ages.

Me too! Trouble is it's also for a long while been on my to-do list for a scratch-build. One day....

 

[WhisperCloud]

I am in if the scale is good, if not will make one scratch build.

Resurrecting this thread, since the Derelict has started shipping. Is the Nostromo still in the works? Or has it been scrapped? Was there ever any update from HCG?

 

[Python]

I never heard any more...

 

[darthblitzwing]

I would think yes in works. Would be a big seller no other official models

I just sent this to their general inquires email:

Good Morning,

Do you have an update on this? We have been teased with this picture for nearly 2 and 1/2 years ?

Thank you,

John

Disappointing answer....."I'm sorry, I have no further details at this time."

They teased the Chris Reeve Superman liscence at least 5 to 6 years ago. Nothing ever happened. I think Bobby C. did a full scale bust for them but it never went past development stage.

 

[Space Jockey]

Not heard anything new on this. They have three Aliens related items coming up....Motion Tracker, M240 Incinerator and the M59 Smart Gun.

 

[darthblitzwing]

At least they didn't write canceled.

 

[tchalikias]

Yeah, I still have hope that we might see this one day...

 

[tchalikias]

I just noticed that the 'sneak peak' Nostromo renders are still up on their site, so there's hope perhaps?

Does the original Nostromo model exist? Where does anyone get the details of all the kit parts that were used to create the Nostromo; Scott breaking pieces off and sticking them elsewhere on the model. Is there any record at all that describes sizes, lengths, parts, etc? It seems like a very involved project to replicate something with so many parts if you don't have the original model to study and cast.

Very early WIP obviously, but the details look very good. Can't wait.

 

[Python]

Interesting. I'd love to see an image which gives an idea of the scale...

 

[Wah]

Oh hell yes! Finally!

 

[FlyAndFight]

Looking forward to more information on this. Any chance it would also be available as a kit and keep the pricing down?...

No chance IMO.
