Cool pics anon. I can't wait for ultimate City Hunter.
Wish my main nigga Borg was getting an ultimate too.
i blacked out a bit in TRU today.
>>5671860
Wowee zowee that's a sexy alien tongue!
>>5671860
My TRU had like 6 Mutavores in stock. Man I really wanted him, but not for $55-$60.
>>5671860
Guy who just wandered into this thread here, how is the NECA John Matrix?
How does his articulation compare to, say, Revoltech's/Figma's/etc? Need something beefy and brawny for my shelf to go with all of the crazy uguu Japanese shit, and I loved the original Commando movie.
>>5672127
The 7" one, I mean. Not sure if theres others, but the 7" one is the one I'm asking about.
>>5672127
>How does his articulation compare to, say, Revoltech's/Figma's/etc?
It's acceptable considering Neca's price point and the amount of accessories and paint/sculpt work the figure has, but the articulation is nowhere near as good as jap figures. Expect mostly basic standing poses.
Source: I collect Neca and Figma/Figuarts/Revoltech
>>5672127
>How does his articulation compare to, say, Revoltech's/Figma's/etc
You'll get like 90° of motion at the elbows and knees at most. If you come in expecting nothing but garbage, you'll be very pleased. If your expectations are at the level of what you already have, you'll be painfully disappointed.
>>5672154
Got some examples to the extremes he can be posed in? I'm not expecting, say, revoltech level of crazy dynamics, but can he pull off fairly action-ey poses?
Also whats a good price for these things? Just trawling eBay and Amazon and I'm seeing them there for around $35-ish.
>>5672169
I think the MSRP is around $25-30 since he's an 'ultimate' figure so $35 doesn't seem like a terrible deal if that's including shipping.
Check out Toyarks gallery for examples of poses

Anyone take part in the Alien Anthology Alien Day contest? Emails to the winners were supposed to be sent out today, there were 40 prizes, but I haven't heard of anyone getting an email.

He can shoulder his gun to shoot it like a man.
>>5672319

What? It's Weird Al...that's the faces he makes.
>>5671860
I do like this figure but I wish they wouldn't have made the pinks so subtle.
If the paint were like this custom I would have blown me away.
>>5671974
Borg is awesome!
I'm waiting for Scarface and the ultimate Jungle Hunter myself.
>>5672427
That looks fucking cool
>>5671860
When does that cool concept Xenomorph come out in OP's pic?
>>5671860
My jimmies have never felt so rustled.
>>5672529
September according the Neca's official website.
>>5672069
I lucked out at mine, the manager on duty knew I buy tons from them so he gave me 20% off since I was on the fence over the price. Really happy I picked him up, overall a great figure but that price still hurts
Any Britbongs know if wave 15 is here yet?
Wave 15 is at Newbury Comics in Braintree, MA. Call sometime during the week, I'll put some aside for you.
>>5673550
Do you offer free shipping? :^)
>>5673564
Get fucked, Northern Cunt
>>5673574
Who the fuck do you think you're talking to you cheeky southern pansy? Gab that to my mug not online and see wot comes about.
I wonder if there's a way I can give my Tyrael figure wings. Probably pipe cleaners or something, but that's kind of lame.
>>5673669
Clear vinyl tubes, but I'm not sure if those come in sizes that are proportional to Tyrael or how easy it would be to keep them bent in a certain shape..
>>5673674
That's an interesting idea. Could probably heat it to form tips and warp it a bit.
Anyone got a template/guide on how to make a box of flowers for the Neca T-800?`
u knoe ...
Seriously though, why is in general characters with little or no combat scene doesn't get an action figure? NECA's T2 line seriously misses kid John Connor and Alien line misses Newt.
>>5674189
Newt is coming, SDCC exclusive (but probably retail later)
But anyway, it's because nobody wants a fucking Paulie action figure. With getting drunk action and turkey leg accessory!!
>>5674202
>not wanting a toy turkey leg

NEVER
WE NEED TO GO FURTHER
>>5672427
Fuck, it looks very impressive, however I don't think that kind of paintjob would work on the aliens warrior, the resurrection one has more fleshy parts otherwise it would look odd.
Speaking of paintjobs, I need to repaint the dome of my black genocide xeno, fucker came with a white streak right in the middle of the face so, which kind of paint is the best for it?
I'm a faggot so this is the first time I attempt to paint something and don't want to ruin it.
>>5674428
>fucking when
Fucking I don't know, but I find it awesomely funny how Weird Al got it first (although it's probably customary if you're using someone's likeness).
I wonder how they'll ship the Bill and Ted figures to their respective actors, or if they just each get a set to simplify things.
>>5674206
>>5674432
Anyone feel that the Alien/Xeno species needs to be buffed? They stand no chances against the like of these. To even the odds, u knoe
>>5674625
well the xeno has sheer numbers, so i think it all evens out
>>5674625
but the xenos' has a hulk
>>5674625
Am I wrong to think that the original Xeno was bulletproof? It was Aliens to show them to be vulnerable to pretty much everything.
>>5674665
the original never faced a gun, if memory recalls. Just a flamethrower and a harpoon gun. Can't recall if the harpoon hit it or just wrapped around it's leg.
>>5674665
No, it was not bulletproof. It would have been easily killable, but they couldn't shoot it because its acid blood would have burned through the ship.
>>5674649
>well the xeno has sheer numbers, so i think it all evens out
Xeno number is limited to the amount of population they can cocoon and facehug. For example in Alien 2 there were 250ish colonists minus Newt, so that's the limit on the amount they can impregnate and breed Xeno warriors out of. Also having the Queen to be limited to big Xeno who can be overpowered with essentially a forklift utility vehicle was lame (well it was cool when Ripley did it but in retrospect anyone could've done it).
Considering that NECA had made a couple of original Kenner inspired Preds, it would be really interesting to see whether there is an original "Kenner inspired" alien.
Anything from King Alien, to Queen sized dinosaur alien hybrid would be utterly nuts. I still cannot fathom who are the target audience for all the 1/4 scale figures NECA made, but a gigantic dino-alien or variation thereof would be super rad
>>5674714
If it's as successful as the Kenner preds (which t should be), I reckon we'll get all sorts of shit after a while.
>>5674649
>>5674674
The number is limited, yes, but that's kind of a good thing, if in one hand a spaceship could only generate a few of them, a plane such as earth would render anything that isn't a mass destruction weapon completelly uselless agains the hives that could form.
And that's not to mention the huge amount of Kenner fashion variations that could show up.
No predator could beat that in a regular hunt.
>>5674665
The alien warriors in Aliens are bulletproof to some degree.
Small caliber weapons like the handgun Vasquez fires at the xeno in the air ducts just bounce off its dome. This could be explained as their exoskeletons hardening/maturing to a point where they become immune or resistant to any bullets that aren't explosive like the pulse rifle's or pack a big enough punch like Hicks shotgun.
Big Chap might have became bulletproof if he was alive long enough, that's my headcanon anyways.
>>5673574
C'mon lads lets save the agro for the yanks n europeans
>>5674954
I always imagined it wouldn't take long for their exoskeletons to become durable as shit, like super thick rubber.
How would their skin feel?
>>5675031
Why are Brits ruining these threads with their shitty attitudes?
>>5672536
???
I just copd mine at a nearby local store for 40$
>>5675224
Are you sure you didn't get the other concept alien?
>>5675234
dang youre right! but they looked so similar lol
im sorry for misleading you negnogs
>>5674714
There has yet to be a wholly original Kenner alien
Looks like the chinks working in NECA's factory give no fucks about snatching a few products.

>>5671860
I remember seeing a bunch of drawing of aliens with thick motherly thighs, breasts, and and plump lips
Do they sell toys of ones like that?
Looks like the PacRim figures will be having some competition.
>>5675906
More like dead in the water.
>>5675906
>overpriced Japanese figures
>competition
I don't think so, Tim.
Does any one have or seen the Queen ALien? Is she worth it? does she have any quality problems?
>>5675986
Only issues with the queen are centered on the original design being pretty much impossible to stand on its own, so even with the included stand it can be a little precarious to pose, but its not bad once you decide how you want it.
>>5674206
I can't stand that mask. Its too much.
Luckily, his headsculpt is pretty good. I think its a straight scar repaint with a different mouth.
>>5676305
I wish there was more toys with the crazy factor turned to 11.
>>5676305
that's what i like about kenner preds, the absurdity of it
Out of the all the Neca Preds (including ones to be released), which one do you guys find the coolest or the one you must have in your collection?

How about YOU stop?
>>5676897
Unmasked scar or Hive Wars.
>>5676305
That's the best part though.
>>5677014
Are you really trying to troll right now? What the hell is wrong with you?
>>5671860
How bendable is that tongue going to be? Will it be flexible enough to make a tight "coil"? I don't own it, but I imagine it'll be similar to Prometheus's tentacle alien? Also, will it easily break?
>>5677126
>How bendable is that tongue going to be?
Knowing NECA, probably not very.
>Will it be flexible enough to make a tight "coil"?
Knowing NECA, probably, if you try hard enough.
>be similar to Prometheus's tentacle alien?
Knowing NECA, probably.
>Also, will it easily break?
Knowing NECA, probably not unless there are some whack problems with Xenomorph tails I haven't heard/read about.
>>5675906
Not really, the NECA line is finished after Ultimate Gipsy Danger and Hardship.
>no Ultimate Crimson Typhoon/18" Crimson Typhoon
>no Ultimate Cherno/BD Cherno/Cherno reissue
>no Brawler Yukon
>no Onibaba
>no Karloff
>no Raiju
>no Slattern
Just got Mutavore, he's pretty good. My only issues with him are:
>Very difficult to keep standing, and the stand doesn't help much
>Some questionable articulation choices, particularly the shoulders and elbows
>A little overpriced
Sculpt, paint detail and the rest of the articulation are all great though.
My Tru had quite a few Kenner Ripleys. I said I wasn't going to collect anything else just the xenos but I had to have a ripley in my collection.
They had her for 21.99 even though at the register is said 24.99 but since they had it labeled wrong I got it for 21.99.
No sign of predator wave 15 yet lads.
>>5677705
Cool face hugger glow in the dark eggs.... I'm cool with that... I expected a cinema chine but I can put them with the others I got
>>5677757
Or better yet they can go onthe variant shelf I started today
>>5677757
Dust yo shelf nigga
>>5677705
Man I knew the figure would be a Titan vinyl joint and those dorks got mad and acted like NECA was the only toy company listed
>>5677705
>Glow in the dark Xeno Eggs
That's actually pretty cool.
>>5675679
So everyone's going to ignore this?
>>5677915
Why should anybody give a shit?
>>5677915
The problem is it's nothing new, I guess. NECA's had their stuff stolen more than a few times from Chinese factories...it does suck ass.
#prednesday
Am I the only one who doesn't give a shit about box art? Non-ultimate packaging goes into the trash.
I was hoping to see something to do with ultimate Jungle Hunter or City Hunter this week.
When does Scarface come out?
>>5677951
October 2016 according to Neca's website.
>>5677947
Yeah, i don't much about it either, if anything i preffer buying the figure and later realizing how good looking the box art is, like oppening a new book only to find cool ilustrations in the last pages you didn't even knew were there.
>>5678138
Sometime an error is.... just an error.
This has to be one of the weirdest promotional shots I've ever seen.

Doesn't matter your side on it, if you are taking part on it you are to blame for ruining otherwise good threads.
>>5678404
Why? Because a woman holding a puffy vulva with 8 legs?
Nobody gave enough of a shit about it in it's own thread, so I thought if anyone else would appreciate this it'd be the neca thread, even though it's not NECA
Pop Culture toys is doing 7inch Scale figures of What's his name from the Thing and the 2 friends + the werewolf from American Werewolf in London.
And it also looks like they will be articulated eventually judging from the seams in their eblows and the back of their knees(not seen in the pic related)
>>5678589
Judging by these characters it looks like their doing the figures NECA thought were too risky/obscure to do.
I don't blame NECA, the lack of interest in the other thread shows how little people cared, but I personally am super excited to see what other characters PCToys make for this line. Hopefully it does well.
>>5678589
i just want the wolf
>>5678589
>>5678595
Oh woops, theyre actually called Pop Culture Shock Toys.
Supposedly the lisensor who helped bring these to life, also licensed the figures for SOTA's Monstar line or something like that? Horror figures of obscure lisesnes like Killer Klowns from Outer Space.
SOTA actually had a canceled American Werewolf in London and The Thing figures I believe, so maybe this is their comeback?
There was also a canceled clown from Killer Klowns, and Herbert West from the reanimator. Hopefully we'll get them too.
>>5678595
>I don't blame NECA, the lack of interest in the other thread shows how little people cared, but I personally am super excited to see what other characters PCToys make for this line. Hopefully it does well.
they're
>>5678595
Thing is, SOTA tried to do these very same figures and they went nowhere and then SOTA died. I'm shocked the guy is trying it again.
>>5678589
>>5678595
>>5678605
You're not alone Anon, i really want a MacReady to fight alien menaces alongside bald Ripley.
I also want to know if a chestburster would gestate inside a assimilated human or if the thing would assimilate the facehugger before, just a morbid curiosity since both would result in creepy, rapey deaths to us all.
>>5678612
Yeah it is weird, PCSToys usually makes higher end statues I believe, so maybe they just raised up enough money to experiment releasing these obscure characters with more articulation? I doubt this will sell but I plan on getting every release they put out. I'm always happy to see unlikely characters get made. Especially ones from cult horror movies
>>5678589
lets see how the Paint end up.
but look good so far
I guess people is getting into the 7" lines as well.
Maybe i Remember wrong, but I hear that Assasine creed from McFarlane was going to start working at 7", and this you show are 7" as well.
>>5678589
>>5678595
>>5678605
Oh man... I miss NECA's Cult Classics line. Hopefully whatever these guys are trying to do will be reminiscent of that, but with more articulation.
The reason I'm so pumped for pic related because it reminds me of that line.
I guess we got their Ultimate line now, which I'm super grateful for but it's not as special when half of them are from Terminator, and none of the figures are obscure characters.
Hopefully these new guys will do Pennywise
>>5678627
>but I hear that Assasine creed from McFarlane was going to start working at 7"
Idunno about Assasin's creed but they did definitely announce that for their Walking Dead figures.
>>5678645
>Pennywise
That would be awesome!
>>5678624
I wish they'd make that fucking Mummy Returns Anubis. I'm butthurt as shit that it got canceled for their Now Playing line.
>>5675187
>how would their skin feel
Like latex and vinyl friend. Like latex and vinyl.

>>5678780
Forgot pic
Got my Video Game Alien in today, the torso and second right leg joint is kinda loose but otherwise it's awesome. I also noticed that even the details under the dome are painted 2-tone as well. I just wish the head and neck were more articulated.>>5678805
Is the torso joint a ball-joint? I may put some tissue or pledge on it.
>>5674954
>Small caliber weapons like the handgun Vasquez fires at the xeno in the air ducts just bounce off its dome.
Nope.
https://youtu.be/aHjRQJZsUGg?t=42s
so I know theres some kind of bullcockery with Bethesda and the toy rights or whatever but why isn't NECA making a Doomguy figure and how much complaining to Bethesda do we have to do in order to get something done about it? I do not want something shitty like we got with the Fallout and Skyrim figures.
>>5678936
if it's just Doom 4 shit, forget it, I don't need that bad fanfiction crap.
>>5678940
so you haven't actually played the game then?
>>5678945
I've seen vids. I won't even waste time pirating "Metroid Prime meets Brutal Doom starring Master Chief".
Brutal Doom is shit, too.
>>5678965
this game is more like Classic Doom than you think. give it a shot before shitting on it so much.
>>5677947
At least it gives a good look at his "tail".
>>5678906
That's because it's right against its head and through the side, Gorman's shots ping off later in the scene.

he's a white supremacist woman hater that magically has no employment and leeches off his wife's paycheck(he's in his 40s but not disabled in any way, so he's just a lazy piece of shit), a shitposter, and his habits go back years before /toy/ existed to Fwoosh and the Spawn.com forums. He was banned from Fwoosh for making dupe accounts to harass other customizers, which he failed to hide because he did so from his home IP, and the staff busted him. He's also filed bogus Paypal claims against BST sellers to get free toys. He's basically /pol/ trash that has only one friend, who happens to be David "SJWalky" Willis, because not even other /pol/ trash like him. He thinks that because he played one video game once that he's a "gamer". Funny enough, even though he backs gamergate, most GG supporters also hate him. He's never been nice to anyone, he treats others beneath him and his one selfie has his head cocked back so he can look down his nose at everyone. He got banned from TFW2005 for racist remarks.
TL;DR he's an unredeemable douchebag no one can stand. He's the type of person that if you relied on him for a life-saving blood transfusion, you'd probably just prefer to die rather than deal with him.

You've already outed yourself as a complete retard in a post you made yesterday where you directly contradicted yourself saying they aren't figures. The janitor deleted it along with the rest of your shitposts/shilling, wish I'd screencapped it.
Just to reiterate, eggs are not figures. They are accessories/prop pieces.
A xenomorph warrior is a figure. Ripley is a figure. Bishop is a figure.
A carton of eggs is not a figure. Get it through your thick fucking skull.

Anyway, Capcom AvP figures would be rad.
>>5679984
I always wonder why people like to go so aggresive about customs they dont like.
I mean, at least it doesnt have thick paint and stuff.
It doesnt look great, but at least he try.
Tell me where is the picture of this idea done right?
Where is the right way to do it to the point to shame others.
>>5679988
Idk I thought the customs were pretty good except the panther one.
I guess people hate the guy who made them and I don't care about that but I don't think the customs are shitty at all
I got Terminator Genisys Pops in the mail yesterday.
I know I'm kinda slowpoking here, but I finally had enough wiggling room in my purchases to get him. I think he's pretty great. Actually as a figure, I think it's better than the Ultimate one. The likeness seems to be ever so slightly better when comparing it to the Ultimate's sunglassesless face. But the Ultimate one wins out due to better accessories and of course being based on the superior movie. Posing him with the T2 one is fun and I can't wait until we get the T1 figures just for more of that.
>>5680155
I got it from the app call Geek.
which is pretty much Wish store.
Everything is from china.
Some times it feature original stuff, and maybe this Gordon is original, because the price wasnt ultra cheap. but if he isnt, i cant notice it.
>>5680129
I FUCKING WANT THOOOOOSE

Oh that's fucking cool. My box can't get here fast enough!

Fug, wish I got it now.
>>5680427
It was like 2 months ago (everything you order take like 2 months)
I was looking at "Neca" and saw it. i think it was like 25 bucks or something.
maybe they run out of them.
>We'll never get a figure of this glorious mother fucker

NECA thinks it's too niche.. Is it? Insidious is the highest grossing horror movies in recent years.
Oh well, maybe these guys will give him a shot >>5678589

It's envy. When someone doesn't have the talent or intelligence to do something themselves they tend to disregard other people work to make them feel better. Sour grapes

>I don't understand why my post about the lootcrate item was deleted
oh you know, control and all
>>5678936
why did you post a McFarlane product in a Neca thread?
>>5681280
All joking aside, what even is the demon's design besides the darth maul face? I don't recall an especially clear look at him in the movie.
>>5681759
but its from one of the highest grossest franchise horror films of all time!
>>5681759
He has Freddy Krueger-like claws on his hands and hooves for feet. It's a pretty good design, I know people think he's just a Darth Maul rip off but after the red and black face the similarities end.

Absolutely they are figures. It has facehuggers. The face huggers even have articulation.
Tell me, what distinguishes a figure of a facehugger from what Neca gave us?

I'm pretty sure I've never had a post deleted before. I don't know what you are on about.

1. Figures don't have to have articulation.
2. They do have articulation. Bendy tail.

>cutting off the top of the page where it says "posted in Action Figures"
Lol. Pretty good trolljob. You'll probably get a few people.
>>5681841
Completely agreed. It's obvious and I can't believe people are fighting over it.
has neca general's quality drop so low?
from arguing about "variants" to whether or not the eggs are figures
i really fucking hate you alien fags
>>5681894
There are still good posts, problem is that it only take a couple of shitposters to bump half a thread full of bulshit.
>>5681894
I think that conversation is happenging between 2 or 3 guys.
And they just dont stop, and will not let it go.
>>5681894
I suspect that all this shitposting come from the same individual. Always the same expression, arguing over the strangest bullshit. Apv videogame being not popular, painting over pred nets, variants...
>>5681914
Nope, you're describing different people.
Like the asshole who got mad and faught with people about a shirt last night. There's just autists galore in here.
>>5681923
Or someone who is bored and like creating drama & arguing with himself.
>>5681935
Color me impressed as fuck if it's one guy fighting with himself.
>>5681858
A bendy tail is not a joint, and therefore not articulation.
>>5681958
Fucking. Stop. You're wrong. It's okay to be wrong. Stop. You have done nothing but fight for days. Stop.
>>5681965
You. Look. Like. A. Fag. When. You. Type. Like. This.
>>5681958
Bendy tails absolutely are articulation. What do you think articulation means?
But anyway, its all moot, because as someone already pointed out, the eggs and facehugger were posted in the "Action Figures" category on Neca's site. They are action figures.
>>5681894
You new here?
This time 2 years ago, you had some autist literally defending them marketing a cancer boy toy for pure profit.
Then before the AvP preds got announced, some faggot always insisted they'd never do them because " the films were shit and Randy hates them. Deal with it!"
Then there is the guy that never heard of AvP and AvP2 video games, and thinks therefore that they weren't popular.
Don't forget about Grid's tail not being severed.
And then when people speculated that they were doing an incorrect Grid just to release a correct one lady, some autist would always spazz out and claim Neca would never do that. Then, of course, Neca did just that.
No, my friend, this place hasn't gotten worse. The guy claiming no variants, and the guy claiming the facehuggers aren't figures are just the latest in a long line of irrational shitposting.
Its facehugger friday.
I really hope Neca announces 7" scale facehugger figures soon. I really want a 7" scale facehugger figure, and it is ridiculous that Neca still hasn't done one.

>What do you think articulation means?
Here, I'll show you what it means since you don't know
> Definition of articulation
>1
>a : a joint or juncture between bones or cartilages in the skeleton of a vertebrate
>b : a movable joint between rigid parts of an animal
2
>a : the action or manner of jointing or interrelating
>b : the state of being jointed or interrelated
>>5682024
By that definition, no action figures are articulated, since they aren't vertebrate animals with bones and cartilages.
Try again.
Also, action figures need only be posable, not necessarily have joints. A bendable tail is "poseable", regardless of how you want to define to articulation. Hence, a facehugger with a bendable tail is an action figure.
>>5681996
>the eggs and facehugger were posted in the "Action Figures" category on Neca's site. They are action figures.
They're posted there because they are to be used with action figures. The flight stands are posted in that category as well. Are they suddenly action figures? They have unarticulated Simpsons figurines listed too, they're not action figures. Everything that is an action figure is, get this, listed with "action figure" in its name.
>>5682043
Neca refers to their Simpson's figures as Action Figures. You need to get more consistent, kiddo.
GOOD LORD! It has to be the one and same person arguing himself. Same words & counters. Troll bait guys.
>>5682038
So as usual you're being willingly obtuse as the clear common factor in all of those definitions is the word "joint." No joint, no articulation. Words don't suddenly change definition just because you don't want to be wrong on an anonymous cartoon board.
>>5682005
I wish I could vanish you from this reality.
Yep, probably the same shit poster that post both arguments & counters.
>>5682053
All of those definitions refered to anatomy. They mention animals and vertebrates.
You could have posted the definition of articulation being about speech and words and it would be just relevant.
Here:
>http://www.amazon.com/Aliens-Action-Figure-Xenomorph-Warrior/dp/B00B0P8JXY
>Last but not least is the all-new Aliens Warrior which stands over 9" tall and has over 30 points of articulation including a bendable tail, hinged jaw, and sliding inner mouth.
>Articulation including a bendable tail
Neca clearly considers a bendable tail to be a point of articulation.
>>5682048
Not these. If you don't know what you're talking about, you probably shouldn't talk about it.
>>5682073
Look how many times they use the word "figures" to describe them in that photo.
>>5682068
>All of those definitions refered to anatomy.
What the fuck do you think "figure" means? Holy shit

> It has almost 30 points of articulation, including double knee joints and a bendable tail
Two place now where Neca has referred to a bendable tail as articulation.
You should tweet Randy and correct him.
>>5682076
We're talking about the difference between a "figure" and an "action figure." If you're going to argue about words being used, you should try paying attention first.
>>5682082
No, we aren't.
We are discussing whether or not the facehuggers are a figure.
It obvious to everyone but you that they are.
You are argued that they don't count because they have no articulation. However, Neca has always counted bendable tails as a point of articulation.
>>5682088
>We are discussing whether or not the facehuggers are a figure.
You mean the things that NECA sells as accessories and flat out said weren't figures?
Oh wait, I forgot, this thread took a weird shift and now Randy is a liar and doesn't know anything about his business.
>>5682129
I bet you're one of those asshats that tried to keep Amiibo talk off toy because "WAAAAH IT'S NOT A TOY IT'S AN ACCESSORY!"
You're so assblasted that you were wrong that you're fighting over meanings of words. Get banned or something already, all you do is fight with people and try to get the last word in. Fuck off.
Rip NECA general
>>5682157
Randy itself said it wasn't a figure. The thing is that you don't share his criteria. That is ok too. Now can we please move on?
>>5681657
Pls leave andrew
New 2 pack with red dog and drone.
https://twitter.com/neca_toys/status/733696348709629953
so if the current neca facehuggers had articulated fingers (and could actually hug faces, heh), would they be considered a figure? they are already in the correct scale
>>5682409
That looks neat, but I don't like how they painted over the bottom half of the back of the dome. It looks...wrong. Still looks neat though.
I know there's no canon precedent for it, but the AVP Xeno would look fantastic in red.
>>5682409
so that means how many big chap variations so far?
1-original v-crotch big chap
2-updated articulation big chap
3-black dome "kenner" (repaint) version big chap
4-isolation big chap
5-white "concept" (more like repaint) big chap
6-and now "genocide" (another repaint) big chap
is big chap the aliens version of jungle hunter for alien figures? (as in the one with most repiants?)
>>5682409
They advertised the red genocide warrior like that at first but the final product ended up being bright red with minimal black wash. I hope these don't end up the same way, the dark red looks cool.
>>5682446
These look a lot like how the red Queen turned out so I think we're safe. They look sick. I'm down for repaints as long as they look cool. I like the Genocide Warrior, but in the event these turn out bright and plasticy like that I'll probably pass.
>>5682409
Looks cool. Closer to the Genocide comics than the warrior.
Still, the genocide comic xenos had a smooth dome, but a distinctive "mohawk" ridge down the center.
>>5682129
>You mean the things that NECA sells as accessories and flat out said weren't figures?
Its an accessories pack that comes with a Facehugger figure. Its listed under action figures.
>Randy is a liar and doesn't know anything about his business
You are the one calling him a liar. He said bendable tails are a point of articulation, and you are saying they aren't.
Someone just asked Randy on twitter if they are ever going to do a 7" Facehugger figure, and he said they are in the 6pack egg set.

ITS NOT FAIR DAMNIT
>>5682497
So I guess dioramas and flight stands are action figures too
All this crybaby autist horseshit just because someone wanted to justify their hype over a stupid lootcrate even though the figure they included was some vinyl shit.
Conversation is over. Its not a figure.
>>5682471
>I like the Genocide Warrior, but in the event these turn out bright and plasticy like that I'll probably pass.
I feel the same. The bright red plastic doesn't look so great on the warrior sculpt.
I wish they were all like pic related.
>>5682505
That's a bootleg.
>>5682503
Bendable means it's a figure. It's a specific creature. That makes it a figure.
>>5682505
That looks awesome. Is that a variant?
>>5682509
Sorry bud, Randy already replied directly to you. Its an accessory, not a figure.
Take it up with him.
>>5682506
That doesn't mean it's not cool looking
