Hi, where do yo7 buy your figures from ? Thank you
Thanks for comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏼 A lot of the 1/10 scale stuff I purchased on release from a bricks and mortar store and it has been in storage and only opened for review when I started the channel due to display space. The majority of the statues, 1/4 scale and 1/6 scale stuff I get from William Wang at One Man’s Hobby (there is link to his website in most of my 1/6 scale reviews) I also occasionally go to EBay for the rarer stuff but prices can be silly and occasionally use UK based distributors or buy straight from the manufacturer. Take care of yourself and happy collecting👍🏼
Thanks for the very detail breakdown! Do you feel like the base limits poseability? I want to recreate all his poses from the fight with Hector but the base looks too small for that. I don't know if I'll ever display him without the helmet, so I'm considering the non deluxe version (which is around £100 cheaper but doesn't come with the base or rooted hair sculpt) I know you said you don't have the older Achilles figure but have you seen in person photos? The paint on this newer one is better than in the promotional photos but not 100% screen accurate imo
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏼 Honestly I was a bit disappointed with this figure and I never use the bonus head sculpt as it looks off to me so he always remains helmeted. The base is good but looks to me like it’s been repurposed from another figure, it’s ok for a museum pose but who wants Achilles in a museum pose🤔 I have him in a fighting pose but the base is so irregular that he is precariously balanced on the edges and with the heavy metal armour always in danger of taking a tumble. I would have preferred more black on the armour but it does seem to change colour throughout the movie. Take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏼
Never been a fan of neca figures, purely because of the quality issues. As a result i ended up getting the mezco one:12 collective alien and predator. The alien is excellent but the predator needed extensive repainting to make it screen accurate. I know the mezco range are a lot more expensive for a small figure however i think its worth it because of the quality of the mezco figures. Thanks for your review as always, really enjoy your reviews.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated. I only have a few Mezco pieces in the collection and they are all 1/6 but I do like their work(I picked up their Elvira statue recently and it’s outstanding 👍🏼) NECA can be inconsistent but touchwood so far I’ve encountered no major issues. Take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏼
Terrific little figure and a great addition to anyones collection I think, amazing the range of scales this guy is available in having also seen reviews of him in a massive 1/3 scale by prime one🔥🤩. This and predator are for me the 2 best imagined creatures in the realm of sci-fi and horror and have stood the test of time now over 4 decades which is a scary thought in itself😂. Always enjoy your thoughts on the smaller more attainable Neca pieces that are constantly so well done. Have a great weekend and as always mind how you go👍
Thanks for your support and comments but Christ you’ve made me feel old🤣 We are from a generation that was blessed by the summer blockbuster not haunted by endless inferior reboots, sequels and prequels of far better movies. The fact that Romulus and Prey exist today not only stands testament to the quality of the originals and their monsters but just how lacking in original ideas Hollywood currently is😞…imo. I once saw a beautiful custom life size big chap for sale and passed on it….what a spoon🙄 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Not enough articulation for me I would wana dynamic pose it too much money for it to be stood on a shelf stiff as a board disappointing I do wish they would do a Queen alien from aliens though.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏼 I get what you’re saying 💯 after all it’s an action figure not a statue…the clues in the name🤔 It would be great to see HT or another company go all in with 1/6 Alien figures, the technology has moved on so much that we should be able to have both screen accuracy and pose-ability. Take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏼
@goFigure623 yea just not enough articulation for me as I said I have many star wars hot toys and I can pretty much pose them in some pretty movie dynamic poses I found this one just looks too stiff with not much you can do with it to recreate poses from the move Aliens after all they were to quote Hudson there all over the god damn walls so some poses would have been nice il prob have to go with a prime 1 Alien Warrior and Alien Queen on that 80s classic not cheap though.
The 'EGGcessories' look great! so does the figure! i might try to get ahold of him in the future! EDIT: Also I didn't know they removed the eyes for the movie! I thought he had them! I prefer them honestly
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated. 🥚ceptional accessories indeed 🤣….I guess it’s all down to personal taste with eye thing but I can see why they did it…puns everywhere 😅 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
It all needs another black wash. The prop is blue and black, but the blue is dulled. As for the gold, it's odd, but all the gold on the figure is on the prop. Again, it needs to be dulled down as well.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏼 Agreed the paint choices on this figure are odd and the display solution could be better. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
I’m super excited to get my timed edition hopefully next week. Dhl messed up my first shipment before it left China, so I got another one sent out and it’s in transit. While there are cons to the figure from what I’m seeing, $265 USD is a fair price to pay considering all the alternatives are customs that cost anywhere from $1k to over $3k I’ve seen. Idk I’m sure I’ll love the figure. Thanks for the review!
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏼 Sorry to hear about your shipping issues with the figure and I hope it arrives soon. I couldn’t agree more…the figure is not perfect but it’s a good representation of MacReady considering the cost of custom alternatives. Take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏼
does anyone know if HOT TOYS will realease some ALIEN ROMULUS figure? I'd like to see another Ellen Ripley refresh model and some Xenomorph from the new movie...
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏼 I haven’t heard anything about HT rereleasing Alien figures or doing any Romulus stuff, at the moment I think it’s just NECA…but that could change. Take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏼
Stunning! ❤
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated. Absolutely 💯 still a stunning piece eight years down the line 👍🏻 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Hey nice figure but this is not hrgigers alien only the big chap was the aliens where Cameron’s idea
Thank you for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 I did mention a few times during the review that the xenomorph in Aliens was designed by Stan Winston and James Cameron based on Gigers original design….and a great job they made of it too 👍🏻 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Great figure that’s deserving of it’s elite status, I must admit I really don’t worry about limitless articulation, once I find a pose I like which is never too extreme I am happy to leave it alone thereafter. As you say I much prefer accuracy and presence in a piece and this figure has it in spades. Seen the Romulus film twice and I like it a lot , love the Easter egg nods to previous films, if you know you know, will certainly be buying it for my own collection on 4k when released in a few months which for me is always the test of my feelings for a movie. Thanks so much for the retro review , informative as always, have a great rest of the week and as always mind how you go 👍
Thanks as always for your comments and support 👍🏻 So good you saw it twice…high praise indeed. Like you I’m not one for extreme posing but with the buzz around Romulus and with all the Hot Toys reissues, artisan and V2.0’s happening I’m surprised they haven’t jumped all over the Alien IP. With the advances in figure technology they could give us the best of both worlds..screen accuracy and poseability. I’m not sure why they are hesitating 🤔 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
I wished they could have improved a lot around the issues of this design to make it more sturdy. The paint and details are great. As NECA is bigger than standard 1:12 this may be 1:10 in actual.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 I have been mixing up my scales with the NECA figures..as another viewer pointed out they are 1/10 not 1/12…my mistake. Your’e quite right the paint applications, screen accuracy and sculpt are all on point with this figure but it is inherently unstable and fragile in places due to its design and NECA could have come up with a better display/design solution. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
If you push the smaller jaw more out, it will stick out even more and lock into place. You have to press it a bit firmly. But you are right, leave it like that for awhile and the soft rubber will wear out. Happened to mine. Thanks for the review, I love mine and still looks great!
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 That extendable mouth makes me very nervous…and not in the way it was intended🤣 sorry to hear yours perished, I think NECA’s idea of a hard plastic hinged mouth may not be quite as screen accurate but for long term posing is a far better solution. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Great video!
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated, take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏻
@@goFigure623 all good Bro! Seen a few of your videos now and their brilliant! Your going to be one of the best in the hot toys community!
Great review of this older figure. I own the avp alien warrior brown version and bought it purely because of articulation. Hopefully hot toys produce a new alien after announcing a new jungle hunter. Thanks again for the great reviews
Thanks as always for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 I’ve never had the brown version in hand but it looks really good. Absolutely 💯 with the buzz around Romulus and all the artisan and V2.0’s that Hot Toys are announcing I’m really surprised they haven’t jumped all over the Alien IP…it would be license to print money. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
I need one of these for my collection. Where did you get yours?
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 I picked mine up years ago from a distributor in the UK, as the figure has now been discontinued I suspect the only place your going to find it is on the secondary/after market unless of course Hot Toys decide to reissue it. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
i just hate seamless... you cant do an extreme pose and an alien need to be in a crazy pose, not just standing there.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel its much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 the biggest downside is the lack of articulation on this piece, NECA’s Alien line up is far better for extreme posing, display and photography. You would think with all the buzz around Romulus and the improvements in technology that Hot Toys would revist their Alien line up and give us screen accurate poseable Xenomorphs 🤔 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
If you like Aliens, you must to buy the Neca 1/4 one. It is awesome. I did a base with pipes, and that aquarium grid/filters, and man, looks Terrífic. Thanks a lot for the review!!!!
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 If your meaning the 1/4 1979 Alien Big Chap I already have it and an amazing piece it is too, there is a recent review of it on the channel. That base sounds incredible and just what this fantastic figure deserves 👍🏻 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
What is or was your most disappointing and frustrating figure you have ever owned, mine was Jango Fett exclusive by Sideshow Collectibles, it was the design of the armor pieces on his thighs and shins or knees you moved his legs ever so slightly and they would constantly unpeg and fall off I'm glad I no longer have it and looking back I kind of wish I would of sent it back and got a refund for it.
Thanks for your comments and for supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 That is a very good question and opens a whole can of worms 🤔 as I have collected so many over the years I would have to break it down into catergories like worst put together, worst headsculpt, worst outfit etc….off the top of my head the worst figure overall this year for me has been the WHY Studios Leatherface….just a complete train wreck of a figure in every department 🤣 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Great looking figure. I really wanted to get her, but I can't justify the cost right now. Plus, I already have 8 figures on pre-order. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks as always for the comments and support it’s greatly appreciated 👍🏻 I was on the fence about this one myself but after picking up the Deadpool I felt obliged to go all in. I know what you mean.…it’s a constant juggling act between budget, new releases, PO’s and available space 🥵 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Do you have the Exo-6 Saavik in hand? I have her on pre-order and was recently informed her delivery date was being pushed back until the end of the year. Thanks again for sharing.
Thanks as always for your comments and support 👍🏻 I don’t have Saavik in hand yet I was just going on the ETA provided by the supplier I hadn’t heard about the push back, thanks for keeping me up to date 👍🏻 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Another great review! Hot Toys is really missing out here in not coming out with another Alien xenomorph figure.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 with the buzz around Romulus and the focus on artisan and V2.0’s you would think that Hot Toys would be all over this like a rash, it would be a license to print money. Not sure why they are hesitating….too many projects currently on the go maybe?🤔 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Ageing like a fine acid : }
🤣👏🏻 Absolutely 💯…take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Tis figure is hot garbage for this price. Hot toys charge same price and gives 20 times the quality. i cancelled mine after looking on reviews
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel its much appreciated 👍🏻 I can’t really argue on that one but in it’s defence it does have some good points…if you look hard enough. It most certainly isn’t the definitive mass produced 1/6 scale MacReady I had hoped for….I guess the wait continues for that. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Great detailed review mate! This figure does not get the recognition it deserves. I picked mine up for £150 on Facebook. It's a crazy good figure that doesn't get the love it deserves. Again, keep up the good work on the channel mate. It's refreshing to find a decent review channel in the UK 🇬🇧 Damo from Derby. 👍🏻
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 even if your not the biggest fan of the movie this is an amazing figure and is often overlooked. Great to hear your enjoying the figure and picked it up for a resonable price, take care of yourself and happy collecting. Sheffield lad myself 👍🏻
A cool figure for sure and displays so well alongside dead pool but for me she was never an option purely because headsculpts are the most important aspect of a figure for me. I realise she was never unmasked in the film so that’s fair enough, I do have masked figures but they come with headsculpts as well such as Bo Katan etc. Congratulations on picking the figure up a real worthwhile addition to your collection which I am sure you can pose and pose again and have a lot of fun displaying😀. Thanks for your thoughts, as always well considered and fair and a great guide for anyone interested in picking the figure up👍 Have a great rest of the week and as always mind how you go 👍
Thanks as always mate 👍🏻 a lot of people seem really surprised that Hot Toys got these figures out so fast 🤨 well with no head sculpt to worry about and two similar figures already made previously where’s the surprise ????? But I get what your’e saying about masked head sculpts, it would have been nice to see a Wade Wilson swap out sculpt with the Deadpool figure but I guess they would not have got the figure out as quickly. Take care of yourself, happy collecting and have a good week 👍🏻
only batman has a bodysuit, right?
Absolutely 💯 Batman has the body suit, Robin just the tights👍🏻
@@goFigure623 I hope inart makes this as they do custom body base on the character
I got one of these too and love it. I only really cherry pick their 8" Mego scale figures, but couldn't reaist this with the Kenner packaging.
Absolutely 💯 very hard to resist this one, even if your not big on 1/4 scale this one is just too good to miss👍🏻
Mine just arrived and I love it.. I'm not sure if you mentioned or knew this but he basically has 3 wardrobes. You can take off his jacket and he will be in his green jumpsuit and you can remove that and he will be in his grey shirt with his white thermal underneath.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel its much appreciated 👍🏻 It’s great to hear you are enjoying the figure. Absolutely 💯 there are a number of different display options for the outfit…I just going get the zip undone on the jacket during the review….took some futzing afterwards🤣 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
kind of confusing. in america thats called 19 inch banned 1979
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 well I didn’t know that, I guess you learn something new every day 🤔 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Thanks for this review, Graham, really appreciate your honesty. I was umming and ahhing over this and decided to not take the risk based on a couple of financial issues at the time, but also with Mondo's lack of track record and my lack of faith in them pulling it off. If only they'd put the effort into the figure that they did on the box. To my eyes it looks like so many bits of it were made by different companies and the end result is the figure doesn't feel cohesive at all. The complete lack of overall weathering is a huge giveaway. But that jacket being such a small fit and the other issues are too damning. I do have Mondo's BTAS Batman and Mr Freeze, liked that line, but again, not without issues and ended up giving up on collecting more as the figures were no longer distroed in my country and then too hard to get off Mondo directly. This would be third party figure of the year, but yeah, it's a first party failure to me.
Thanks as always for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 I’m with you all the way on this, I was hoping for so much more especially after they displayed the prototype which is fair to say bears little or no resemblance to the finished product. A real missed opportunity here as I was hoping for the definitive massed produced MacReady figure….I guess the wait continues. Take care of yourself and happy collecting👍🏻
Saludos desde el norte de México! Adquirí ésta figura en 2020 y es realmente genial! Es mi pieza favorita de mi colección. Excelente review. Tienes un nuevo suscriptor.

Still have my original Still in the box from 79.

Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 I managed to pick the Alien Queen on reissue as well, it’s great to hear you’re enjoying it as much as I am.

Brother, been watching for your review due to pick this Blade up over the Present Toys. Do you apply any 303 Protectant on the pleather area?
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 I treat all pleather/leather on my figures with 303, simply apply a thin coating with a clean sponge every six months or so. If you are in a more humid climate you might want to do it more often. Good choice on going Hot Toys imo the Present Toys version is good but you can’t beat the orginal 👍🏻 I hope you enjoy it as much as I do, take care of yourself and happy collecting.
I seem to be in the minority but I like my bases clean and black. Logos and textures, to me, are gaudy and toyish.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel its much appreciated 👍🏻 Its all down to personal preference, imo a good diorama stand/base can ground a figure and give it context but at the same time it can distract from the main event as well and “busy up” the display too much. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Great piece. I've got the original kenner alien but this one really rocks!!!
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 this is definately some of NECA’s best work imo. A bit jealous at this end as I would love to own the orginal Kenner version…not exactly screen accurate but a piece of figure and toy history 👏🏻 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Got mine yesterday, PROS...head scultpt better then i thought it would be ,spider and dog look great ,figure has a kurt russell build ,nice creative box ,muttiple wrist pegs ,./.CONS... price for what we got ,jacket,short and limited arm movement ,i got the weird leg also (pretty sure everyone is gonna have that problem ) ,quality of body ,no hat od goggles i think they should have added a hat instead of energy into a fancy box ..thats ok i with try to make a hat and definitely build a cool diorama dog cage scene but this is my first mondo fig and prob the last i will pick up
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 your assessment is spot on…sorry to hear you have the same leg issue, apparently its quite common but QC issues at this price point shouldn’t really be happening. They should have definately included the hat and glacier glasses maybe even a bottle of JB, the hat might have been an issue due to the amount of sculpted hair and would have ended up looking funky. Mondo would then have to go the removeable hair piece or seperate headsculpt with hat option which would definately increase the price point. I hope the diorama build goes well, take care of yourself and happy collecting 👍🏻
Looks awesome,could you pose him crouching down or does he really only work standing upright? Would prefer a more dynamic pose but looks limited?
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 To be honest I had never tried to pose him crouching until you mentioned it so I gave it a shot. Now I wish I had done it for the showcase at the end of the review 🤣 Absolutely 💯 you can pose him crouching and very good he looks too, it takes a bit of futzing but the joints will take it and it doesn’t over stress the articulation. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
What an imagination to envisage such a creature😯so so impressive one of the all time great cinema monsters and a fantastic piece to own and have in your collection. Very well done by Neca with tremendous accurate details and great paint work. It genuinely is the stuff of nightmares and just further cements Ripleys position as the best female action movie character to date . Enjoyed Romulus and it’s nods to the previous alien films, some genuinely scary moments and a good watch I would say. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this remarkable piece, have a great rest of the weekend and as always mind how you go.
Thanks…support…comments etc 🤣 Absolutely 💯 a fantastic figure of probably the most scary and iconic monster in cinema history and some of NECA’s best work. Like Ridley Scott said…no Giger no Alien. Its good to hear you enjoyed Romulus, I haven’t seen it yet but I’m hearing good things. The best in the franchise so far apparently….Alien and Aliens not with standing of course. Enjoy the rest of the weekend, take care of yourself and happy collecting👍🏻
I have mine arriving in a few days. Have to say I’ve been very excited for it. But after seeing this I am a bit disappointed especially with the price tag that it came with. I appreciate the unboxing. First time seeing your content and you’ve got a great channel. Thank you.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 As with all things collecting is subjective and many people will love this figure and there is alot to like here. Personally I would rather have a flawed MacReady in my collection than no MacCready at all but I would be doing a disservice to viewers if I didn’t point out the issues. Thanks again, take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Glad I passed on this one
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it's much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 it could have been so much better. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Heh. Great fig. I did get one, but ruined it. I was using it for reference (if you've seen the 40 years 40 artists book I did one in there), but left it in the sun over the weekend and it warped so much I just can't get it back... ah well! hey what's your name in Will's group mate if that's OK? I'm Matt. One thing I disagree on a bit. Giger would *not* have been proud of the skull and eyes under there (that stuff further back, sure). After putting it in initially, he and Scott decided it was so much scarier if you *can't* see the humanity in there - hiding it made the alien inscrutable with no face to be sympathetic with. Just nasty teeth and such. I think it was a brilliant decision and absolutely works. I can't stand the modern "Skulldome" movement. People are so literal-minded it drives me nuts because they miss such an important part of the creature and the intent of the film. Anyway that's my little rant! Thanks again for the vid mate! Seeing this... I need to get another one!
Thanks as always for your comments and support its much appreciated 👍🏻 Are you the Matt responsible for “Juvenile Xenomorph” in 40 years 40 artists? If so that is some outstanding work right there👏🏻 I’m James D in Wills group, I dont post as often as I used too…too busy making UA-cam videos 🤣 I get what your saying about the skull and the eyes, I was refering more to the skull itself than anything else, the desicion to omit the eyes was absolutely the right one imo. It looks fantastic in the conceptual art (have you ever been to the museum in Gruyere? it’s amazing😳) but like you say it adds to the inhumanity and mystery removing them. When they finally gave the hybrid eyes in Ressurection a collective laugh ran through the cinema, which I’m pretty sure was not the desired effect. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
@@goFigure623 Oh man I wish to go to the Museum and bar some day. Long way from Oz! And yeah the newborn - I can see the thinking, but it just ended up looking like a guy wearing a skull mask and looking out from inside! I mean Amalgamated Dynamics did a great job (I have been there!), but it's one of those design things. And Chris Cunningham/Halls is a bloody genius and his dog Alien stuff on 3 from when he was a bloody teen for crying out loud is sickeningly great. But I think a lot of the dark humour of his art is hard to translate, especially the A4 stuff. His stunted clones were great though. And yeah that's the one, the juvenile. Printed up like crap though. The ones on my Insta are better (if you're interested!). They managed to stuff up the David's Drawings book too! And cool I'll know to look out for you in Will's group thanks! Cheers mate!
The bigger they are, the harder they fall! .... Especially when they fall off the shelf : {
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 Big Chap plus gravity and its game over man 🤣 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Great video again very good detail all around along with you I had to use a kaiser 3075 figure stand I wish more companies gave matching stands and not just high end figures
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 a figure this good really does deserve a decent diorama type stand, it would add a bit to the cost but imo it would be worth it…a nostromo styled base would set this figure off perfectly. Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
Very nice 😊
Thanks for that its much appreciated 👍🏻 take care of yourself and happy collecting.
It's horrific, even at that size! The paint job is absolutely perfect. I'd love to see how they do a professional paint job on one of these. It must take several hours per figure.
Thanks for your comments and supporting the channel it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 Absolutely 💯 the paint job on this figure is amazing and as good as if not better than alot of Alien statues that come in at 5 or 6 times the cost 🤯 Take care of yourself and happy collecting.
