Mine finally came last week, it is a fantastic piece. Couldn't be more happier with it. I have it displayed with the Aliens: Fireteam Prowler, a small Xenomorph display.
I prefer this base over the original. much more elegant and allows the piece to focus more on the aliens silhouette. best licensed big chap out right now for sure
Brilliant piece, got this coming in the next 2 weeks. And like you was not sure what to do … do I buy or not with all the controversy. But I need this in the collection haha
Yeah I am going to try not to purchase anything from prime 1 going forward. Great products, but just horrible in all other aspects of business. If there is something I like from them I will get through sideshow.
A great looking piece (even with the new base). I'm a fan of the Aliens franchise myself, got Prime 1's Ripley on pre-order. And to answer your question, it's definitely a standout in your collection.
@MrGizmo5602 I was gonna get the Alien Warrior, but I wasn't feeling the massive base. I'm hoping Prime 1 makes an Alien Warrior bust like with their Jungle & City Hunter Predators (which both I have on pre-order) to match.
I sold my original version to get this one only because it had the clear dome. The original version was movie accurate with blacked out dome and couldn’t see the skull underneath.
@@PassionForArtCollector well what you think of the video ( how it look) I love it and I think you will too. The plastic look gives it a slimy appearance which to me looks realistic
I have this in transit to me now. I also was detoured from the first piece due to the Nostromo Wall detracting from the detail of the actual Big Chap. I'm a fan of this version although I know there's a controversy about this with the owners of the original.
Sorry nodika it’s already been put in storage. I can get it for you whenever I get to storage unit again. But I have to say the box was really not that big for being such a massive piece
Hey Mike, did you have to get a import license to get your piece from DHL. I heard from Batman Statue Collector video people who use DHL had to do that. Is this true with you?
I had to pay 108 bucks for the import fees and shit 455 bucks to get it here in 4 days ridiculous I was pissed. But economy shipping was 260. Which takes 30 days or more from them. But no license
@@MrGizmo5602 Omg 455 dollars for DHL that is almost a Sideshow premium format statue money. Now I am scare of the piece I order from Prime 1 Studio directly lol.

Sounds nice. Post the pics or email it to loved to see it
I should be getting mine tomorrow :) A little cheap trick for the chip would be black shoe polish, if you wanted to hide the white.
U will enjoy the piece
Bro once again awesome Video man. Big respect to you, you love your Mother! I am the same way.. Alien was scary man I remember watching it as a kid...
My friend I was waiting for your response.
I prefer this base over the original. much more elegant and allows the piece to focus more on the aliens silhouette. best licensed big chap out right now for sure
Absolutely
Agreed!
Hey Mike what a class looking sculpture Great buy
Hey Phil thanks for coming into Maiden Mikes world. Yes you are correct it is all class

Another good piece.ive been wanting to get a 1/4 scale alien peice and life size bust in my collection.i just have a 7 inch neca alien piece right now
Really T ?????? neca 7 inch. That’s not going to cut it. You need a real alien in that collection.
@@MrGizmo5602 yeah
Not really an Alien collector,but this one is really nice! Love that portrait too!
Absolutely 👍
I managed to snag one and have him on PO, As my first statue I have no regrets price tag hurts but damn does that thing look good. Excellent review 👍🏻
Well lucky you kof for snagging 1. It is a big price. I don’t like to get in that price zone plus the shipping.
A great looking piece (even with the new base). I'm a fan of the Aliens franchise myself, got Prime 1's Ripley on pre-order. And to answer your question, it's definitely a standout in your collection.
I agree Mitch it is awesome

@@mitchelllawrence2798 that would look nice 👍
@MrGizmo5602 Thanks, man 👊🏾

I think you made the correct decision. I think this one is way better
Yeah. Also for the tubes you can use a hair dryer for a few seconds and easily fit them. Mine had the same issue with all 4 tubes.
My waitlisted just converted, should I still get it? Thanks again and keep up the good work 😀👍
I would. It’s a great Alien and the companies just don’t make many of these guys
@@MrGizmo5602 Sounds great, does it look like a real Xenomorph or more toyish/plastiky in real life?
@@PassionForArtCollector well what you think of the video ( how it look) I love it and I think you will too. The plastic look gives it a slimy appearance which to me looks realistic

Yeah prime 1 is definitely the ripoff company of our industry. You will love the piece
Amazing piece! Can you tell me the sizes /dimensions of the shipping box? (Centimeter) thank you

@@MrGizmo5602 Mike, one more question, how many boxes did your Big Chap came with, two?
@@zeheero you can ask me a 100 more questions. That’s what I’m here for. Only 1 box

@@zeheero economy shipping is your best option or maybe purchase through sideshow
Amazing piece. Get a life size one. How you been bro?

best piece for sure
I’m thinking the same
That artwork is primo behind him. That’s one of the downsides to the wall version. Your limited a 18 x 24” art piece to display
@@deathsanarchycollecting8261 yeah. But I think it works.
20 minute vid! Let’s get it!
Had to do it. A lot to say. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
But congrats on your grail Mike.
