Sideshow Alien Queen Maquette Review

[@johnnysmiles4541]

"Hey Vasquez, anyone ever mistake you for a man?" "No. Have you?"

[@sirbubbles5506]

Thank you bro for all your videos you are my go-to source when it comes to my decision about buying a statue these are expensive pieces so I have to be careful but the way you review in great depth and detail is phenomenal and I will continue watching with all thumbs UPS

[@lalobarrera99]

I have always thought that SideShow is overpriced. They have flaws everytime.... Somehow I'm always Dissapointed :/

[@eddude7949]

this and the Alien King are badass, I think I like this one better cuz of her color and how she's painted, the factories did a very impressive job with this statue

[@JWEntertainment77]

Sideshow did an excellent job here. Game over Man Game over!

[@mikehilton4204]

"Game over man, why don't we just put her in charge!" Lol

[@eddiebreaux752]

Somebody's been in the sun for a minute!! Like I've said before, Sideshow is so hit or miss, never consistent Overall nice piece.

[@seantierney3699]

Pretty jealous that you got yours already. Mine should arrive in June. Probably going to copy your display with the king maquette and avp diorama. Good video sir!!

[@Galactusz007]

You ordered the XM Alien? Now that one is a spectacular statue!

[@azuredragon7206]

Thanks for the honest review. I have it on p.o. and it arrived today and i am thinking about selling it forthwith seeing some sloppy paint job, i don't want to risk unboxing it. I should wait for Prime1 future Alien 1/4 pieces. Expensive but quality guaranteed. There have been complaints over SS pieces and their paint app. I have one SS piece and that is one of the coolest, Deathwing. I should keep that one only and no longer invest on SS.

[@TheXtremeChannelMrX]

I’m actually gonna personally sell mine. It’s more of a $700 piece.

[@mercerultimateedition7325]

I’m glad I watched this prior to pulling the trigger. This is definitely off the wishlist now.

[@edwindiaz8257]

OH WELL... HEY A LEAST YOU GOT A TAN RIGHT...👊🏼🌹👍🏼

[@NotMorganFreeman.]

The paint masters on the prototypes always look great. They have some of the best painters doing them, some who I know personally. Well, used to know back when I was heavily into collecting. The copies roll down the assembly line in China, and I guess they do the best with what time they are given. Personally, I would repaint this one myself and keep it.

One of my favorite one-liners from Aliens is when Michael Biehn's character, Corporal Dewayne Hicks pulls out his shotgun and says, " I like to keep this for close encounters!" Love your Alien Queen maquette!

[@sarahpusey9052]

@@TheXtremeChannelMrX I agree 💯% with you my friend. He was a class act. I really loved him in The Abyss too!

[@sarahpusey9052]

@@TheXtremeChannelMrX i was laughing so hard while watching this because you kept getting thrown off track because someone in your house was banging on something 😂🤣 😂🤣 😂. That totally reminds me of my husband and mine's house when our kids were younger! The joys of parenting.

[@Galactusz007]

Definitely not 1/6 scale. As Hot Toys 1/6 Warrior is 14” in height, only 5” shorter than that Queen. If you want an awesome Queen of the same scale for about $500, get the Palisades one...one is up for grabs on eBay right now. The Palisades Queen has a meaner pose as well.

[@captainaction8100]

I agree about the hit or miss. It's like I will only get certain pieces depending on who sculpted it. Lately I haven't been impressed. I have a lot more pieces coming from XM and Prime 1 over anything right now. I was kinda let down by all the pvc and what feels like rubber on the Doomsday. Still haven't decided whether I'm going to keep it, depends on whether they replace my head sculpts that in my opinion have weak magnets when compared to others. But overall I think it's a great looking piece. I just feel like the cost isn't justified when I know what I get from P1 and XM. Sideshow better step up. Plus you are right on the shipping. great video as always. Thanks

[@gavinsmiyh6218]

Favorite Aliens quote is when Hudsen says "Game over man, game over"

[@PjsPlaceSW]

"GAME OVER DUDE, GAME OVER!"🤣 I just scored on for $700 we will see how it looks when it gets here. Keep up the Great work on you videos dude!👍🏼

[@TheXtremeChannelMrX]

Congrats. Fantastic price!

[@nathan1327]

Can I ask... How /where did you score it so cheap?

[@PjsPlaceSW]

@@nathan1327 Ebay, a guy was liquidating some of his collection and had a 30% off sale on his statues. I bought that one and a Prime 1 Scorpion Alien for $1300 from him.

[@nathan1327]

@@PjsPlaceSW oh wow 30% off is fantastic, thats a golden moment, thnx for sharing. I was looking for this piece about month after you - but becos of Brexit (new red tape & 20% import tax) made it too much & harder to buy from Europe

[@lucasyang9134]

SS has my order prepped for delivery. I am excited over it but not as much as waiting for P1’s Queen reveal since their teaser on Alien day.

[@lucasyang9134]

Xtreme Just opened up mine to check for defects. Mine had the same issue as yours in the video. The middle tip of the crown is separated and inner wire connecting them can be seen. Did you contact SS about yours? If you don’t mind, could you please share how did they handle the recovery.

[@Lethal_Venom]

That's a bummer that it was sub par for what it could have been.

[@TillThenPlease]

First thing I noticed was the healthy tan! You've got some decent sunglasses! Another cool Alien piece! Loved when you flamed Sideshow over their shipping costs. That would really tick me off too. Nice statue though! I think you're right about the warriors. That statue doesn't really need them. Thanks for the vid! This was a solid review giving the positives and negatives.

[@brummiedave1511]

Good to see you up and about..still wearing those sun glasses..lol.. nice enough but not my thing..

[@NP3D]

I love your honesty man! It looks awesome but at that price point.... Not cool! Love your vids!

[@faz6877]

I have thought the same thing for the last year. It is so small for the price point, especially when you look at some of the other Alien or Predator pieces coming from other studios that are just a few hundred dollars more.

[@krakenhunters9754]

Great review. We have ours coming in this week and can't wait to review it as well.

[@jesseortiz8829]

Awesome zorro cosplay

[@nicholasdsilva5273]

[@GuruReviews2015]

Great review as always. I picked up the King when it first became available. Been on the fence to get this to match. I saw Prime 1 advertising an "Alien Queen Battle Scene". No scale listed. The few videos and photos out there, it's definitely larger than this. Going to hold out for that. I'm sure Prime 1 will push the $1500 mark, however based on my experience with them, it will be worth the money. At the price point of $1100 for this, just not worth it.

[@TheXtremeChannelMrX]

I was disappointed with the reveal of the P1 Queen personally.

[@TurbotoTaLL]

A 1/6th scale SWS version is coming along next year, as i am making one wich will feature open/close mouth and corrected teeth as shown in the movie and limited poseability. It will be available for purchase and the paint app will closely match this quality: www.modelzone.com/mangrasshopper/index.php?level=album&id=323

[@roronoahkz]

1/6 warriors are 14" Those are definitely 1/10 or smaller. Great review. Wait for Prime 1 queen confirmed lol

Definitely has its issues but a cool piece. I agree with a repaint would have of been better as a kit.

[@betomartins3119]

game over, man

[@rawreviewsii6044]

I would have to agree with you. The price sideshow charges is insane, especially when it’s not made of 100% of the quality material they’re stating it’s made of. Shipping charges as well.

[@simonriddick]

I got mine last week. The paint isn't as good as the King and she has a bit too much plastic. She has some minor defects as well and i've been finding paint brush hairs on her and the base. What they look like anyways. Overall she still looks good and the defects are minor. But for the price I would like less plastic nonsense especially on her body. I have to watch your review at home later but i'm sure your concerns will be similar to mine.

[@Punisher6654]

Good review, this statue looks pretty good although there are some bad paint work in some parts which you have stated .

[@johnnysmiles4541]

[@garyn1280]

Just recently found your channel and subscribed. I think this piece looks to be a miss overall when you consider its price. You would think with all the competition Sideshow is getting lately from companies like Prime 1 and XM Studios they would be stepping up their game on every piece they produce. Anyway great job on the review and I'll be checking out some of your other videos. I can see myself coming back to your channel quite often.

[@faz6877]

Yes those prime one and xm Alien / Predator pieces will dwarf the queen & king from Sideshow! Having said that, I really love the design from sideshow. Just with they were a little bigger.

[@alankoning9862]

The warriors are not to scale with her. The Palisades Queen itself is superior in accuracy, pose, gloss and sculpt. Base is cheesy and too busy. 5-pointed nut/bolt heads around the base come on guys.

[@statuecollector955]

Sideshow can be frustrating 😒

[@beartr2626]

Why ya wearing glasses in doors? Camera lights to bright? lol

[@PaleRyder563]

It's 1/7th scale.

[@nathan1327]

I don't own it (wish I did) but I'd say 1/9 or 1/10 for Queen... Unfortunately the warriors make the scale smaller... Like 1/12 at best.. Maybe 1/14. Wonder if they can be removed 🤔

[@conorlyons8529]

Tail looks too big, and the warriors too small.

[@monkeyspank6444]

The King is better, the Queen is boring, over $1000 without the eggcase is BS. Why they wouldn’t go with the definitive eggcase design is weak, so what if it would’ve cost more, this design is what you could do with the Neca AlienQueen for only $100. They should’ve did the pose with the tail through Bishop prior to the battle with the power loader.
