Top 10 NECA Aliens

[@nikogramz]

The alien Isolation xeno design is the best xeno design ever created in any and all alien universes. A perfect homage to Giger's vision with a tremendous improvement to the legs making it a much quicker and aggressive beast. This is the ideal xeno.

[@marcopenafarfan5250]

It's a good design but as the figure itself it's so frustrating that it can't stand by itself. Weak legs and the stand included to help is even more useless. I actually prefer the Big Chap.

[@The_Based_Batman]

The Virgin Isolation vs the Big CHAD

[@aarontwenty7]

Yep just got that one , dick head will not stand up , really loose lower leg joints , if joints were stiff and you could actually pose it that be great . I wouldn’t of bought it if I realised what this figure was like

[@corybowman7884]

I'm a big fan of the alien isolation feet the big chaps feet looked to human and fake so isolation version won me over

[@gigmachinejaywoody]

Digitigrade legs Xenos has the best designs. Esp Isolation and Defiance

Snake alien is probably the greatest neca figure ever made ( at the moment ) the paint, the sculpt, the posable tail, its long ass tongue! I think it should be shown more love ( movies, games, comics etc )

[@LokiOwl]

I've always preferred the smooth dome to the ridged one. To be honest, I know it's a petty nitpick, but that's the number one thing that irks me about the film Aliens. It forever gave everyone else license to have ridged head aliens when they should be smooth if they came from a human host. It just annoys me when people play fast and loose with established canon and Alien is my favorite film of all time.

[@Mrfaisalariffin89]

ridge means its fully grown. Young ones have smooth head.

[@bodyelectric34]

Where did you hear this theory? I thought and it was stated by James Cameron he went with the "no dome" because it was to cumbersome to do action scenes in "Aliens"

[@Mrfaisalariffin89]

i can't remember exactly where i read it. but the dome shaped head in the first alien happened because it was a young alien. barely a day old. The aliens we see in aliens (alien2) have ridged head because of the fact that they have lived longer. So they are considered adults.

[@bodyelectric34]

I just read that as well. James Cameron saw the Alien props and some of the xenomorphs head dome was cracked. He looked at Giger's ridge head design and decided it is functional and he liked the way it looked. Then he came out with the first alien being a younger version of his alien warriors story.

[@TheFirstCurse1]

Aliens did ruin the canon. I hate the aliens in it. I like the queen but the actual xenomorphs became canon fodder.

DUDE...Great video. Outstanding camera work and lighting...I can feast my eyes on all the detail I want to see. Very informative and just an all around good watch for an action figure geek like me. Thank you.

[@anthonyh3129]

Honestly what makes me upset is that when I was a kid my Dad managed to get me the AVPR Alien Warrior, 4 Variants of Wolf and BOTH variants of the Predalien. I managed to break all my aliens and I damaged most of the predators (still have them but I had to superglue one leg on of the figures) and I’m pretty sure I’m missing some stuff with my predators but the fact that I was so careless with my aliens is just heartbreaking especially now since they’re considered rare. Played with them a bit too rough and because of my past mistakes I’m not holding those beauties in my hand 😭. A shame but now that I’m older I think I’ll be able to start up another AVP collection and treat them with a lot more care. Live and learn.

[@konigstiger3017]

But the enjoyment you had as a kid, practically pays for the figures itself.

I actually like alien versus predator requiem more myself but I think the night time scenes they could lighten it up a bit , and just to let you know the predalien is not a male it is a female judging by the crest on its head and the fact that it lays eggs .

I like the traditional aliens but I have to say I'm very happy to see mantis alien, and it's my favorite alien they've made. It's so unique and breaks away from the norm.

Cool tidbit about the Predalien. The dreads were made from leftover infant dog alien tails from when the fx guys did Alien 3. :-) I still have both that one and the closed mouth version, which I just adore. But the closed mouth one fell over one day, and the head and left arm popped off. Had to glue the arm in, but even though the head seems to be an undamaged ball joint, I've never been able to get it to stay on securely. Hoping they rerelease it with better articulation.

Should I do it?

[@chamoo232]

I have about 30 Neca figures. My Big Chap's ankle was stuck when I got it. I tried to force it and it broke. I had to glue it back on. I also broke one of the little piston on the back of Robocop's leg. Fixed with glue as well. More recently I broke a tiny cable on the arm of my Ultimate Jungle Hunter. It's a really tiny rubbery cable and it's not long enough to fully extend the arm. It broke but the tip is resting on the edge of the gauntlet so I wont bother fix it since it look fine. Many of my predators, aliens and terminators have also taken dives off shelves and none broke. I'm not sure which of my Neca figure is the oldest but I think articulations have improved a lot on their newer stuff. They seem to break on tiny stuff that are obviously fragile rather than having limbs fall apart like they did years ago.
