SH MonsterArts Alien Big Chap Tamashii Nations Bandai Action Figure Review

[@therottenapplepk8881]

i love the figure, bit i feel the skull is too visible i mean i feel the plastic should of been a little darker there in the front. great review

[@thatguycalledphil6808]

Wow, at first I thought he was just joking when he was demonstrating how to get the smaller mouth out but no, Tamashii Nations actually went through the effort to fit the mouth in there articulated rather than making it a plug-in accessory! That is FINE engineering on monsterarts part!

[@CommanderM820]

Neca Also does this

[@romeo92383]

My first Tamashii Nations Bandai figure was the SH Figuarts MMPR Red Ranger. Ever since I got it, I've loved everything I've see them produce.

[@MsDead90]

The figure and the detail is absolutely amazing

[@hungryfilms3707]

A good figure but I like the neca one better, you could probably buy the neca 1/4 scale alien for the same price as this monster arts one.

[@muhammadcendikia]

neca cant outstand shm.hahaa

[@donutsteak8425]

Yeah I’d rather get neca they have good durability

[@pitbullproductions927]

I don’t think so you can get one of these on eBay for like 30 dollars

[@illiniguy34]

Incredible!!!!! Big Chap looks great! Great review!

[@jamesphogg]

The paint makes this look great. I really like this figure.

[@Vyporz]

Figure looks great!

[@PLumbingMango23]

The ball between the arm and the hand is a nice touch closeing that ball joint gap.

[@WELOCME2DEATHLOK]

gotta sit down and watch Alien movies because I've never seen them

[@unorthdoxcleric6953]

Er what!

[@wewillalleatglass]

what i love about the monsterarts line is that the figures have the articulation of the suits worn be the actors.

[@michaelpoirier6634]

Oh my god this figure is so awesome. Great review.

[@MARVELmadness1]

Reaaly cool looking alien! Great movie franchise as well

[@eeeddddddiiieee]

I saw this at one of my local comic shops and I want to get it and the pred wolf. The translucent head piece looks so damn awesome how could I say no?

[@nicolasoviedo625]

Cool figure i like the face and the paint applications!!, Great Review!!

[@RonRose]

I just picked this guy up earlier today. Lots of great detail and I really like the weight and scale of this figure. I have him in a suspended pose on the stand similar to the one you end the video with. lol Another great figure from SHM.

[@olivertelco7848]

Tbh... You're my all time favorite toy reviewer. I rely on you to tell me if a toy is worth buying or not. Lol

[@lautaroasis60]

i dont like the fact that the skull is SO easy to see, i prefer the neca one

[@milesdugar6920]

same

[@milesdugar6920]

same

[@Microdtoz420]

I agree if I get it then I'll paint the head.

[@goatman6155]

Revoltech is better

[@milesdugar6920]

right

[@Autobot1991]

Awesome review man, I absolutely love these figures. They look amazing! Keep making these videos, I can't get enough of them!

[@bocefusboy]

Whoa! Very well detailed. Perfect for some diorama shots

[@TheFlawlessWallace]

I have the S.H. MonsterArts Alien Warrior figure and I think I like the Warrior better. I still want to get the Big chap though. Its a really cool alien figure. I freakin love the articulation in these figures. S.H. MonsterArts is supreme when it comes to articulation. Great review :)

[@c4archivez]

Hey ShartimusPrime! Do you think you could make another dork room review when you get the chance?

[@caveresch]

If I order this one right now from bigbadtoystore, will it be this version or has it been updated?

[@Crispybadgers]

Love the sculpted skull, I especially love the mini mouth!!! 😄

[@diegoborges6985]

SH did a great work it looks amazing.

[@DevonPalmer98]

Really love the box it comes in

[@pttv4067]

I really liked that last picture that you took!

[@TheFlawlessWallace]

I have the Alien Warrior and I definitely want to get this guy. Great review!

[@magvar2030]

I loooooooove allllll offffff yourrrr videossss!!!! All of them are awesome,or more

[@23cornchip]

This figure looks freaking awesome, but is it better than neca's version?

[@classicrocker008]

Not bad, I already picked up the alien warrior figure, so I think I'm covered

[@slangg]

That head sculpt is awesome, but getting the tongue out seems too tricky

[@BigSweet62]

Thats a decent figure good articulation nice sculpt and detail would look great in some kind of display

[@Baltho]

This is awesome! I'll order one as soon as I can!

[@tfnut]

I just got the NECA version looks almost the same. Great review

[@Randomcrapname80]

If this one doesn't snap at the joints when you look at it hard then it's already better than the NECA version...good review

[@DennisWhyers]

Very cool alien I got the other one and I want to pick this one up to go with it

[@bigcochrane2002]

I like this figure am getting the neca original alien delivered tomorrow

[@VudunderligSnakke]

I have spent hours comparing some of the major Big Chap versions out there and I can say that.. IMHO: 1 Monsterarts Small, but incredibly well-made and very loyal to Giger's design for such a scale; TRULY articulated, resistant, practical. This is the one you want for both extensive posing and overall consistency, a truly durable high detailed toy. The right compromise between practicality and detail. The only flaws I can see are the overall paintjob not being loyal to the original movie costume and the head dome being way too transparent, revealing too much the inner humanoid skull. A good painter could probably fix those, then it would be the ultimate Big Chap toy for sure, although small. Oh, the tail on this one is not a gum-covered wire: it's composed by hard plastic sections instead, and the tip is diecast (yay!). 2 Medicom Incredibly well-made and extremely loyal to Giger's design, but limited on movements and posing due to the rubber cover. Also, the paintjob is not completely loyal to the colours we see on the original movie costume, yet just a little more loyal than the Monsterarts one. Very polished and 'clean': Medicom sculpted it perfectly, with incredible technical precision, without adding too much visual noise like you see from the Neca one or the Monsterarts one. This one would have been the best Big Chap around, if it would have been fully articulated like the Monsterarts one and painted like the Hot toys one, but all in all, the rubberish cover gives to this figure a very set-like sort of realism which improves even more the likeness to the original movie costume. 3 Hot toys The nearest to the movie in terms of colours, very detailed painting. Althought well sculpted, the head is not completely loyal to the movie and it has some different design on certain spots IMHO. To me, it seems that every one of the other houses except Medicom and Monsterarts, are always failing somewhere at reconstructing the Xeno head straight from the original design by Giger. Can't really complain about the rest of the body and its visual aspects but this one is probably the less-articulated one after the Medicom's. 4 Neca (second edition) First edition is nothing great, but the second one is fair enough. Still loyal to Giger's design. Paintjob stays true to the movie, more than the Medicom's, the Monsterart's and the Revoltech one. The static expression on the face of this one has contracted lips with saliva - it can be cool as it is as if the Xeno is about to open his mouth to reveal the inner jaws, but it can be boring on the long run and you might have preferred this toy to display a much more neutral static expression. The overall design is far better than Revoltech's. Head dome too white though, skull too. This second edition Neca one would probably share the second place with Medicom's, if not for some choices I don't agree with. 5 Revoltech This one is the worst when it comes to body parts. Torso is too thin, overall body appearance is ruined by various factors and appears too slim, the overall shape could have been better but I still prefer this head over the Neca's head or the Hot toys's head, even if this figure is way smaller in size compared to those. Junctions are way too exposed, but the colour palette is loyal to the movie costume more than Monsterarts's and Medicom's. Translucent. This is probably the worst you can get after Neca's first one. Surely the worst from the asian ones (Medicom, Monsterarts, Revoltech). It comes with a translucent alien egg and a fair enough facehugger. If it had a better body, I would have putted this one at fourth position. I like the packaging style of this one very much and its a shame that the overall shape doesn't fit because its head is way more loyal to the movie costume than Neca's or Hot toys's...

[@darthblount]

This figure is pretty sick. Awesome review man

[@reptilianmachine2646]

I'm still excited for the neca alien queen!

[@ritalpha17]

I dont remember the translucent head part either, love the figure looks hella scary!!

[@jcseiji]

Nice SH Alien. Shartimus are you going to be getting the Neca Alien Queen that is coming out in October?? 30 pts of articulation and it is a monster of a figure!!!

[@jose323123]

awesome figure and the face is crazy and lot of detail in face

[@JediPUNK85]

sweet figure... are you going to review anymore TMNT 2014 MOVIE stuff?

[@KirKanos08]

I still have my Movie Maniacs Alien vs Predator figure set. This one looks super detailed. It's a shame that the proboscis is such a pain to get out.

[@Billythekld]

i had this set obiously in the box i don't want to open the box xD but the sh monsterarts its a lot better i think i had the wolf predator, alien warrior and big chap :P

[@marklestergamayon7361]

What is the size of the figure is alien figure monster arts Same scale with figuarts figures ?

[@mr.reviewer4598]

You should pick up the sh monster arts predator to go along with this guy

[@d3vil5du3]

Pretty dope figure, though Neca scale the detail in this is just as awesome.That stand is dope too. Glad you are satisfied with it.

[@lindapeters2632]

Awesome alien figures really awesome figures

[@pedromichels844]

Awesome figure!!!!love the movies

[@thegreenman32890]

Im surprised you didnt mention the tip of the tail is diecast

[@MisterMartinez2099]

Hey Shartimus, great vid ya digg! I find that the Neca version of Big Chap is why better. Can u do a comparison of the two?

[@nenarqi]

NECA is less articulated (can't pull the hunched position at all) and the dome is too white, not saying this one is perfect tho, the dome is way to transparent on monsterarts. The one that got the closer to a good dome was probably revoltech.

[@-slice-6103]

Goblin Big Boss scultping? Does that explain why Neca’s BIG CHAP is more accurate? Does that explain why SHMA Alien has a tail too short and an unrealistic smooth butt?

[@hungryfilms3707]

The neca has more accurate paint, I don't really like the metallic look the monster arts has. Also the neca one is bigger.

[@ImaHeatseekr]

Im not really into Alien but im a sucker for paint sculpt and man does this figure have a ton that thing looks sick as hell. -Jose Jesus Espino Vazquez

[@emmanuelaraiza4239]

This figure looks amazing

[@hooniehoon]

nice vid shartimus! keep them coming!

[@jacobguerrero100]

Here for the contest Shartimus!

[@gengar5863]

Mine came in the mail, and as I was trying to get the mouth looking just right to pose it, the right side got really loose and just kinda fell out of the top part of the head. Now his jaw just kinda hangs there. .-. Is there any way I can get his jaw back in his head?

[@mcubnub]

Mike, The Almighty Gengar Just cut the head horizontaly open with a StanleyKnife, remove the plastic clear case of the head, put one of the hands in it, close back up and microwave for about minutes! Your figure is back in mint condition! You're welcome! :)

[@atamiss3259]

Revoltech has an Alien figure. Personally i think it looks way better the color on its is amazing. The head is probably the best part its almost perfect!

[@Daysleeper1990]

+JLCmedia The problem with the Revoltech figure is the articulation isn't as good in my opinion but if you could take the head off the Revoltech and put it on the body of the SH Monsterarts then repaint it a little to match I think you'd have a bitchin figure.

[@MarioUcomics]

8:40 I always skip to the Big time let down spider-man. The highlight of all your videos...best toy ever

[@richardquezada7248]

Wow this alien figure is so damn awesome!

[@chillvillmancuecas6513]

great review shart. I like the detail they put into the skull, but at the same time i wish they went for a dark transparent color plastic instead of the plastic they chose here. its too clear.

[@grantmeunierrubysnakeeyes874]

Dude you have to get the monsterarts wolf predator

[@Rexy419]

Never watched the first Alien movie I think ill watch it right now :D

[@swantonandvipersfigurehunt4031]

The Neva one is better what do you think Shartimusprime

[@swantonandvipersfigurehunt4031]

I mean neca

[@TwiztidUTube]

ShartimusPrime Awesome once again, sir. I've got this and the other 'Warrior' MonsterArts figures and I think this one's my fave.. ;)

[@mrgutman1031]

When I got my s.h. monster arts alien big chap, the inner mouth just slips out, no problem at all!

[@wickedone8943]

awesome figure, gonna have to pick it up.

[@Sonobv]

Sick figure Shart. awesome review!

[@bestial.tattoo]

Shartimus! you should get the big chap from neca!!

[@swalstar]

What are the lyrics to your opening theme song?

[@HeroYoshi1115]

I forgot how big chap looked but its damn good.

[@JaredAAJared02]

Hey Shartimus! It would be AWESOME if you could do a TF2 action figure/statue review!

[@TheGlasses61]

The head is a bit TOO see-through but still nice.

[@zebrafish94]

LMAO when using finger to pull out inner mouth LOL

[@joecyr2045]

Awesome review man

[@atomic_p]

He is having suck a good time with the xenomorph, watch Steven's toy reviews of this same figure

[@rexythet-rex1910]

GojiSlayer 1954 Hhhhgvv fuck you nigga

[@homerino123]

he looks awesome however i'm collecting the neca line :D

[@greenisnotacreativecolour]

The more years go by, the more I like the newborn from Alien Resurrection. Realising there was a skull in the original xenomorph makes me like the newborn even more.

[@ArnoldTohtFan]

I think the newborn was the only good thing about the fourth movie. They ruined the look of the aliens in that movie, and they weren't even scary. But the newborn scared the shit outta me.

[@luiscirca2002]

crewnumber169 actually the newborn is a xenomorph and human hybrid.

[@ryanmaiden1734]

cool video shartimus looks like a cool figure dont really collect aliens though but still looks nice anyway keep up the awesome videos

[@avengervastey]

Cool review man

[@skabcat242]

I need to get some of these.

[@aviationdmr]

In 1979 the xenomorph did not have a sockets

[@allanmonster111]

OHHH That's what she said! You crack me up bro!

[@impossiblepie]

looks pretty good!

[@lucasyocida]

great review!!

[@alexzavaleta2804]

i'm not a big Japanese imports collector but they are cool

[@CamSim]

Awesome figure!

[@JokerCJK]

I'm quite surprised at how small this figure is compared to the neca ones. Not really a 'big chap' in that comparison shot!

[@KrazyJojo4594]

I gotta pick them up

[@SamuraiRed159]

Anyone know why he's called Big Chap, and not Xenomorph?

[@i.still.function3463]

Cool figure but why is it called Big Chap?? Is it British or did Alien take place in London or something lol.

[@caitiehenry6438]

Cool Figure!!

[@MrMomobot]

I change My mind about getting this figure.. I would rather get Necas version. good review though

[@theelderpredatorxenomorph1862]

you shold buy the avp warrior , it have better accesories and better sculpt for the big chap you should buy the neca one it's waaaay better dude :p

[@jasonrosales5694]

I am digging the vids

[@cptdiabeetis5017]

This is a badass Alien

[@jayveejoshevillosillo3099]
