I bought the Mezco one over the weekend and love it. One thing to note since it’s a realistic skin, it is prone to cracking overtime, so I’ve left mine in the box. I like these both, the kobo one is incredible also, great review btw.
Awesome comparison. I have both IMO Kotobukiya all day long after all we are striking a pose & walking away anyways, yes? Both are cool I also have the Revoltech which is similar in scale and a lot of fun.
Not to take anything away from the Mezco One 12 Alien Big Chap. It's a nice looking piece in its own right. However, the Kotobukiya ArtFX+ Alien Big Chap is the superior version in comparison. It's more screen accurate. The paint application is impressive and it definitely brings out the details. Speaking of which, Kotobukiya managed to cram a lot of details into a smaller scale piece. There is a lot to admire and appreciate. The statue has a commanding and intimidating shelf presence for sure. Thanks, Dean, for another wonderful video! I really appreciate it! God bless and stay safe!
Kotobukiya is just superb the dome a little too light but I’m going to customise mine but otherwise it’s incredible. The mezco looks fantastic and a worthy runner up. I’m getting the prime 1 big chap when it’s released towards end of the year which uses the same pose but the kotobuykiya one is a fantastic and affordable statue I would highly recommend to all
These are very nice figures. As an Aliens obsessive since I was 10 after visiting Alien War. My opinion is the Mezco is more movie accurate I regards to the head. The Kotobukiya dome is too transparent. The Kotobukiya looks more like the suit. I don’t have any of these pieces, but I prefer the look of Kotobukiya. It’s more striking. I think one of the most accurate figures is the SEGA Alien. The side angle of the dome is very similar the one in the movie and the dome clouding was done just right. I do have the original 1979 Kenner Big Chap and really know what you’re saying about Mezco being similar in terms of the dome. I really like these kinds of videos. Great content. Oh btw imagine the Kotobukiya in life size scale! Hahaha
I’m a massive Kotobukiya fan, they’re one of the best PVC figure companies for sculpts, I have a few of their figures and they absolutely nail the likeness of all their figures. I have 3 Evangelion figures by Kotobukiya, Asuka, Rei & Mari, and I have Rebecca from Edens Zero, I also have another 2 of their figures preordered.
I love them both, havent got the Mezco one just yet but itll get bought. I also dug the font type with the line coming up on the screen, it minds me of the MU-TH-UR computers read-ups in the film. Cheers.
Hey Dean! Awesome review, love how you reviewed this figure as well as the mezco predator, they way you light them makes them look like 1/6 figures. Will you be reviewing mezco 86 batman? Would love to hear your take on him.
Thanks, I need as many pictures as possible. I am making this in Blender. I hope to be able to 3d print it 1:1 scale and have animitrocs... around 2030 lol, ive been on the head for 200 hours or so, and is maybe 2/3 done. Then i need to learn to 3d print. Comicon here i come. lol
The Mezco is smaller to neca and the kotobukiya is pretty similar to neca's alien and predator line. I believe neca is 1/10 except for the fire team aliens. I have both, the Mezco alien only scales with 6inch figures like the Mezco predator.
neca is sort of the king, of action figures looking realistic, mcfarlane always did campy dum stuff, are these in scale with regular NECA ones ? The Hiya ones are too small.
I bought the mezco alien and I love it. I think I paid $120 when I bought it. I really want the Hobo big chap alien but currently on eBay it's going for $350. Lol too much for my blood. If I am going to spend that kind of money I'm going to buy the Hot Toys Big Chap for $600.
Kotobukiya is incredible,the pose is awesome and the head is perfect,it captures the horror of the big chap like no other figure I've seen.
Thx for making this video ,
Kotobukiya is the jewel of my Alien collection.
It's cool to see that after a month the Mezco has held up well !
Soon we'll get our specimen😁
@@razariel5693 haha good to see you here !

Yea the aftermarket price on some of the Kotobukiya figures really skyrocket.

Can’t wait to get this guy now!! Awesome showcase

Many thanks! Hopefully i can review it in the future 🤜🤛
How would you compare this to holly collectibles group alien big chap?
Yes Dean lets have some more Alien stuff 👍
It shall be done ✔️
@@deanknight333 Awesome ❤️

Love the Kotobukiya figure. Why Mezco went with the ALIENS font on the base is truly beyond me?
damn.. i saw this video just after i bought the mezco one =(. thnks for the vid, nice to see them side to side
No regrets theres no way you can get that one without costing you a limb.
Good question I would say kotobukiya but I could be wrong mezco is very good have you mooded an alien yet or do you leave it as it is
Kotobukiya
Can you compare the Neca predators to these in terms of scale??
The Mezco is smaller to neca and the kotobukiya is pretty similar to neca's alien and predator line. I believe neca is 1/10 except for the fire team aliens. I have both, the Mezco alien only scales with 6inch figures like the Mezco predator.
whats the name of the song you used?
I wish that the figure was an action figure
Neca...😝 mezco for me.
Proportions are more accurate in the Mezco IMHO.
neca is sort of the king, of action figures looking realistic, mcfarlane always did campy dum stuff, are these in scale with regular NECA ones ? The Hiya ones are too small.
