I believe the Kenner toys were based off cartoon that never came out except the comic book that came with many of the figures, I loved all these from back in the 90's, The Alien vs Predator series was the best.
I read the cartoon never got passed the drawing board but it would've been excellent. Think the chiefs were scared of making a cartoon of a (18) but it worked for the Robocop cartoon so it's a shame it didn't happen. They did an animated toy trailer but think they only aired the live action kids playing one (least that I can find...)
They could make an entire film around the Atax figure concept. Imagine space marines infiltrating a hive in stealth outfits that allow them to blend in with the Xenomorphs. Could be very cool.
They totally could. I always liked Aliens Stronghold by Dark Horse comics where they designed a synthetic android to appear and infiltrate hives, except it's also cigar chomping plasma gun wielding wisecrackingly awesome
We need a back story! James Cameron needs to do an Aliens Special Edition where O'Malley is digitally edited into all the scenes, like Lucas did with Star Wars
Did you know you can take either side of the Bishop toy body off, then with the resulting peg that sticks out of the shoulder, you can attach the gattling gun and turn him into a bipedal gun turret. it's very silly and very fun.
Awsome Collection 😎
Thanks!
I wish the flying alien queen would be feature in some type of comic/animated media. The King alien was a great design too in thr kenner line
It's a shame the cartoon never happened - the Queen Facehugger would've been nightmare fuel
@@moatmonstergaming that would be gold cash grave if Disney did that right now with all the nostalgia behind it. But what do I know, just some guy 🤦

Cool! I’ve been building my collection. I’m only missing the Queen Hive playset.
Thanks, the Queen Hive at the top of my wish list!
Anyone remember the rubbery smell of these figures? Pure nostalgia trip
Gorilla Alien really smelt, think it was his soft water squirter head!

O'Malley was clearly one made for the UK fanbase lmfao

These remind me of GI Joe extreme
Bulky and not resembling the source material? Totally!

I didn't realise both sides come off!!
I forgot you could fix the gattling gun on, had discovered it by accident while playing in the 90s
