| Anyone have Hot Toys Aliens/Predator 3 3/4" figures? I posted this at TNI, thought there'd be interest here too:
My brother had these in his room when I visited home this week - I had no idea these existed! They come in little 1/6th scale Alien eggs and you put them together. The detail is AMAZING and the articulation very good. They seem to fit in with 25th style figures very well in terms of articulation and detail, I highly recommend them. Only drawback is that he says they can be a little delicate - he actually uses a bit of WD 40 before putting in the joints, as they can be quite tight and he's accidentally broken a limb of an Alien.
He gave me four of them - two Aliens, Drake and Apone - that he had leftover from the box he got. I liked them so much I ordered a couple boxes myself from Hong Kong, one of which (the AvP set) has a "build a figure" of a Queen Alien!
I know these aren't Joes and this maybe belongs in the "other toys" forum, but I like these precisely because they DO fit in with my Joe collection. I've wanted these for years and I hope they continue to make more Colonial Marines and more, maybe even Dutch and his troops from the first Predator movie! |
