Kenner alien 1979 and super 7 aliens

[@mrpixelator]

I ran home from the toy store with my 1979 Kenner Alien in the bag after mom caved and gave me the $20 to get it... I think it was November of '79. I was so mind-crapping excited that I had to stop on the way back, open the top of the box and touch the dome, I even remember the beginning of rain drops landing on it a little before I resumed my crazed run back to mom's store. Best toy day ever.

[@BellasToyChest]

That’s an awesome story thank you for sharing. Bella💋

[@MildMisanthropeMaybeMassive]

According to the site _In2013Dollars,_ $20 in 1979 has the purchasing power of $86.72 when adjusted for inflation. And gamers complain about paying $49.99 for video games, that are really alternate worlds they can spend dozens or hundreds of hours in.

[@funnypicturescomics]

That Alien in the original box is INSANE....What an incredible piece of collection!

[@BellasToyChest]

channel siskart : Thank you.

[@jameschapman7284]

Absolutely. And graded, too. The box looks great. And if it's original sealing, even better. There were apparently 'Goldilocks' finds of Kenner shipper boxes, each stuffed with 6 brand new in box 18" aliens. Imagine finding one!

[@peterstachura8595]

Alien will always have a special place in my heart since that was going to be my very first R rated movie i was going to see as a kid when it came out (but chickened out the day or 2 before going after reading the comic and seeing the chest burster lol) I also owned that Kenner doll along with the Kenner board game which is also worth a lot of dough now. Ughhhhh!!!

[@BellasToyChest]

Peter Stachura That was an awesome story thank you for sharing. I’m happy my video brought back childhood memories. Bella💋💋

[@chetthebee1322]

I remember my brother buying me the original for Christmas. I was eleven (and, yes, I managed to see the movie) and it was my favorite toy ever. I played with it until it fell apart.

[@mrpixelator]

I was 11, too. I melted the edge of one of the fingers on a light bulb for some insane reason but I kept it right up until last year... Now it's someone else's favorite toy.

[@davidpenn9396]

Hello Bella I remember that figure coming out by Kenner Toys which that really did surprise me for Kenner Toys coming out with that figure even still the movie was Rated R

[@RoyalKnightVIII]

The chest burster fits in very well here

[@xenofett7008]

I got one for Christmas in 1979 when I was 6 years old, but my mom took it back to the store because I got scared of it at night. A decision I would regret a few years later after I finally saw the movie on vhs. I did reacquire one in the box in 1990 from a collectable toy dealer. It's not just a toy but a work of art. It's my most prized collectable.

[@SuperChannelG]

I saw one of those rerelease action figures at the store and they were selling it for hundreds of dollars. It was awesome!

Cool alien most of the original alien toy line the big ones were pulled of shelves and put at bargain bin prices and the rest didn't come out till super seven brought them out

[@BellasToyChest]

Paul Holt : They have an odd history behind them but are a badass toy ahead of its time.

[@kirkhensley5870]

2:18 NO!!!!!!!!!! Strangely, I favored this toy more than my Star Wars toys as a kid. (I was waiting for the dome part there. I hoped that didn't go missing.) I forgot about the "skull" glowing in the dark. How many kids like me were babysat by your parents or brothers taking you to Alien? I still can't believe Poltergeist scared me more. Alien fascinated me, and the only surprise I remember was Dallas being grabbed in the air duct. Everyone else screamed like a little girl, but at 5 years old, I was like, "Wow! We finally saw it!!!" Great stuff!

Bella's Toy "Chest"

[@Casual_Violence]

I ended up grabbing the Aliens 18” translucent green, bronze AND matte black because of this video, beautiful figs. I have the gentle giant 24” but I still want to acquire an OG Kenner at some point. Your collection rules.

That’s totally awesome. Bella💋💋

[@landryprichard6778]

In 1985 I bought one new and sealed. The catalog even showed an entire box of a bunch of them sealed! Never again, my friends. Now, I do have an original complete one loose, but MISB? Those rarely go up for sale anymore. But the next best thing is Gentle Giant LTD's 24" version. Identical. Well worth it.

[@AnimeShmanimay87]

Wow that is a fantastic Kenner figure! Great detail too!

[@dominicgiorgi3665]

Alien is my favorite monster of all monsters No.1# 0h yeah! i only have right now a 7'' scale neca figure of big chap. I had one of the Kenners when i was a kid. Loved the figure. And love the film/movie. However i did just buy one of the 22'' neca Big chaps on ebay new mint in the box and i can't wait for it to come in.

[@BellasToyChest]

That’s awesome I just picked up the the big chap at a show I went to he’s awesome. Bella💋

[@nigeldonaldson1647]

Of all the Alien toys/statue versions over the years (over 40 I think) this remains the best to this day despite not being a very high build quality. I would say the...Halcyon kit version (based on the ALIENS sequel film) would come in 2nd complete with egg, only about....8" tall but a great sculpt & pose.

[@mandofoe7447]

That graded alien in the box is amazing!! These new ones were put out by Super7 and are awesome too. They are supposed to be the alien from the second movie Aliens but done like the 1979 toy. That’s why it looks a little different. You’ll notice that the shoulders and arms are different from the original Alien. I have this and it’s definitely one of my favorites. Great video thanks

5:03 oh I can understand why they did it without the dome and with that color! Because is the one from Aliens not Alien. is the warrior xenomorph in the same Big Chap style.

[@vesuviustitanus4006]

Gorgeous! oh Bella herself? nice too. compliment! the figure is pretty cool, simple, yet high detailed. the figure is damn durable though.

[@woodddj]

the green, bronze and black are not remakes of the original 79 kenner. they are alien warriors from the 2nd movie aliens. that is why there is no dome. Gentle Giant did release a kenner-inspired alien that looked exactly like the original, but it stood 24 inches tall.

[@marbourtown6197]

You're welcome sweetie ❤️

[@K_LCollectibles_Games]

Great figures. Love all these.

[@EternalRoman]

The new ones seen here are somewhat remakes, they altered the mold of the 70s Xenomorph from ALIEN to make the 86 version of the movie sequel, ALIENS. That is why they don't have a dome, since in ALIENS they don't have domes. My mom had bought me the 70s figure when I was about 3 years old. Obviously I didn't see the movie and I also had a big Godzilla figure from the Shogun Warriors collection. As my parents began getting me the Masters of the Universe toys, I would play with these as if it was Godzilla vs a Kaiju. When I was about 7yrs old I started to feel afraid of the look of the figure and I eventually gave it to a cousin of mine (yeah that was dumb) and a year later I saw ALIEN for the first time on TV broadcast...I became traumatized and I hadn't even gone past the Chestburster scene which was what messed me up. I eventually saw ALIENS and though still scarred I never realized that the monsters were the same as my old figure, till I saw part of the last part of ALIEN and saw the grown Xenomorph well and was glad I gave my toy away (again, stupid, yes). Eventually in High school, another cousin of mine who was and is an ALIEN(S) super fan asked me to draw a Xenomorph for him. I hated the idea but I was developing my art and I realized that the Alien was very detailed. Since then, I somewhat overcame my trauma, became a fan, collected figures till this day, and I still hit myself for not having this figure nor its remake by Super 7.

I had an original when I was 10, a gift from my uncle. I'd have my full-size G.I. Joes and Luke Skywalker, and Chief Cherokee, fight it. My younger sister was terrified of it. My best friend was also scared of it, so he punched it and it's head broke off.

[@BellasToyChest]

That’s an awesome story thank you for sharing sorry about you alien. Bella💋

[@peteturner3928]

The one without eyes and full head carapace actually represents the slightly different Xeno seen in the 1986 film Aliens, hence it saying Aliens on the box and not Alien (singular). I much prefer the graceful head design of the original instead of the later films version.

[@indyclonejr]

The reason why the newer aliens there don't have the domes or skull eyes is because as the boxes show they're from the sequel Aliens. The first one or Big Chap, always had the dome & skull eyes, but when it came to the sequel they didn't want the domes to crack & they removed the eyes because you really couldn't see it in the movie anyways so that's why. They just did the whole if Kenner did these back then thing.

I've been on a huge Alien kick lately and have been watching a lot of videos about the Kenner Big Chap figure. I'm not really a collector or anything, but the figure is awesome. Anyway, the algorithm sent me here and with the clothing choice I was wondering whether there was a bit of a double entendre at play here with the name of the channel. The banner on the channel homepage removed any doubts I might have had.

[@clutch2827]

5 dollars. If I was older at the time, I would have bought them all.

[@CollectionTHX1138]

I wish I had a toy chest. I'd have more subscribers. I do have an 18" Kenner Alien closeup clips, him and the box and insert in an Art of Alien H R Giger book vid in which I point out that the box logo is the egg silo shape a Giger design that wasn't used until Prometheus (deep cut only a true fan would know), and the Kenner Alien board game vids. As it stands I had two of something. Two Kenner Aliens. I sold one to a very appreciative Alien fan. It's nice to know it went to someone who knew something about it and appreciated it on that level. The other one I have is in a box with the poster insert. The box is beat up. I got it for $400 from an old lady who was closing up her long time comic book shop 12 yrs ago. I went in to pay my respects. Saw a Kenner Alien in the case. Told her I had one. Asked how much it was and if she had the box I'd buy it. It was her last one. She took it out of the case and under the foot the sticker said $500 but she said I told you 4 so I'll sell it for 4. turns out my friend who owned a used record store bought one of her's back in 1979 when they knew they were being pulled from store shelves. It was his I had seen in his store earlier that made me track down my own. The price sticker on my box says sporting goods dept and without looking it's under $20. So sporting goods means they were trying to hide it when a mom or two complained that it was too scary for kids. thanx mom. she was probably a collector driving up the price. Ironically the kids in the photos look like they're having the time of their lives playing with it. It's good to have a holy grail collectible. and yeah I am an Alien colelctor so it's just not that. I have bakers racks and sterilite containers. Not a huge chest. But if you do. Might as well use it.

The later ALIENS are from the second film. Notice the hands and lack of a dome. James Cameron changed the look of the creatures for his movie. There was a 24 inch version of the original ALIEN that came out and retailed for $500.00 dollars (I have one and it's huge). The box is lacking the picture of the little boy playing with the toy as seen on the first ALIEN by Kenner. A facsimile box was produced by a guy in Rome, N.Y., to house the original toy from 1979. Which was great since most collectors (like me) had lost their original box over time. It also comes with the red inner cardboard liner to support the toy. It looks pretty good and retailed for about $75.00 dollars.

A few years later I started to work at Forbidding Planet in NYC and started to get into the toy collection vibe and realized my mistake in giving them away. I went to visit my aunt and cousins for the holiday and asked about my old Alien figures? My cousin Fred said hold on, he went to his dresser drawer and pulled out the head of one of them. They had been destroyed by them both. When I cousins got them, they were still in the boxes.
