if there were only figures like figma with the price of neca ...

[@andressamaniego]

Hiya Toys has some predators and aliens figures with a decent sculp, low price and small scale !

[@TheBreadator117]

For me neca is better

[@lemmythunder2969]

I think I'll stick with the neca figures

[@loritorringa8454]

Ha! I got this for only 45 Canadian dollars on amazon.

[@foxtailanimations1592]

So your saying I'm stuck with Neca figures. That's just F@cking great!

[@ArmaBiologica35]

That's a real shame. I really wanted this Xenomorph to go along with the Metroid figures figma made but it doesn't seem like It's as well executed as it could have been and the size is all wrong. Goku: 5,9 ft tall Xenomorph: 8 ft tall.

[@LegoManiac_101]

I don’t know whether to get this one or the SH Figuarts one.

[@weijie1523]

But my inner mouth seems to be stuck It does not move in or out It just stays like that which is annoying and sad because I cannot really close the mouth Ever heard or seen such issue like that with this figure?

[@switchboard1551]

What's the one thing that frustrates you more than anything when it comes to action figures? For me, it loose leg joints. OHHH HOW IT PISSES ME OFF!!! Trying to get my original NECA Big Chap to stand, OHH!!! and yes... I know you can fix it with floor polish.

[@caveresch]

How do you fix it with floor wax? I normally don't take anything out of boxes but I did with a xeno and it's taken a couple tumbles and now the hip is loose.

[@dirtywater6346]

Switch Board for me it’s stuck joints or stuff straight popping off everytime you move it

[@nezarredondo6101]

Is the Mafex version any recommendable,m

[@muisverriet]

For 90 bucks the lack of accessories avsolutely sucks.

[@julianx2rl]

I got him for $82, considering how these suckers go up in price a lot of times, I'm guessing I got lucky. Although if I didn't know any better I probably would've bought the bootleg for $40 without knowing, but thankfully I do know better.

[@ashkanm4602]

I really dig the translucent dom which is very important when it comes to Xenomorph. It's one the best I have seen recently honestly. It's not too dark , not ridiculously too clear. You can still see elongated skull underneath it. I have ordered one which I am gonna add it to my collection However I have got a Kotobukia Xenomorph which is a bit pricey but not comparable to any of these toys .

[@mrsigh526]

That yea tho

[@kingkurok3149]

It's so fucking beautiful 😭

[@OBSDCC7]

The teeth and claws are silver in the film...

[@StevensToyReviews]

Not a matter entirely of the color.

[@zonkeos100]

I seen this figure for 30something on a website

[@switchboard1551]

It's funny how so far the NECA Big Chap seems to be the most accurate Big Chap. Which is by no means a bad thing to these Figma version because they obviously are stylized.

[@vengeance160]

Neca is far from being most accurate, wrong proportions, dome is not right. Look up for a mafex alien, the most accurate articulated figure of the big chap. For a statue, kotobukiya big chap, very accurate as well.

[@PhanTimo01]

@@vengeance160 mafex is painfully expensive and VERY delicate. Accurate yes. But not durable.

[@Hcr0n]

🖖

[@PhanTimo01]

I wish there was a big chap figure this size that was accurate to the original design. NECAs are way too big 🙈

[@razariel5693]

Hiya toys! they are 1/18 scale which is smaller than the figma Alien shown here, and have still great detail for their size

[@ivanosatriani5533]

I dont really like the alien and the price point is a little high :( but the predator from figma i bought a fjew days ago and omg the predator looks awsome :O

[@FotogInkArt]

Got it for 20 bones on Wish. Amazing for THAT price

[@StevensToyReviews]

Yyyeeeaaaahhhh You bought a bootleg, bro.

[@FotogInkArt]

@@StevensToyReviews for that price...an IDENTICAL box...all the extras...on a shelf in my tattoo booth. Worth it. If I were a pro collector ,it might bother me ..but for the savings ...unless I told ya,you'd never know. Win.

[@StevensToyReviews]

Oh yeah that's all great. My bro in law's tattoo artist has a bitchin alien set up in his shop, too. Shoot me a pic on my Instagram or Twitter or whatever, would love to see yours!

[@FotogInkArt]

@@StevensToyReviews will definitely do!

[@0gami1tto]

As a tattoo artist I would think you wouldn’t like rip offs, seeing how people don’t like their tattoo designs being copied

[@EternalRoman]

As much as I love Takeyuki Takeya's design and promotional pictures of the prototype, this final product is really crappy, and too small. NECA has released their Ultimate Alien Warrior, Big Chap and Runner which are bigger, better articulated, and some like the Big Chap and Warrior have an egg (with base for Big chap) a facehugger with bendy wire tails, and Chestbursters (two queen versions for the runner) and are valued at not higher that approximately 30 dollar. Takeya's resin statues of Big chap and the Alien Pile look so much haunting and cooler, and yet the final product of this figure looks like a cheap attempt to make it seem like his design. I feel like I dodged a bullet by not getting this but also the pricing is stupidly ridiculous for something so small, fragile and barely poseable with a crappy accessory. Quite a shame really, cause I really wanted a good version of this or Takeya's design of Alien.

[@OTBASH]

Definitely not worth 90 fucking dollars

[@StevensToyReviews]

Very much so in they grey area; Good figure, but like $50 at max before a sale.

[@onestopman5843]

I like figma figures, if you don't like it, can I have your alien figure? I am a fan of alien!

[@0gami1tto]

Don’t ask random strangers to give you their belongings for nothing

[@mitchie2267]

Awful
