[@ecmagee1984]

That Aliens laser gun was a Galoob laser pro z 9000. Like you said in the video, they added the Aliens name to help sell them in South America. It's a pretty cool knock-off type item.

[@2DayRentals]

Gotcha! So that’s where the pro z 9000 name comes from. Thanks so much for the insight and for watching!

[@SteveRudzinski]

I absolutely had the original American version of that Blaster Gun, which obviously had nothing to do with Aliens. It was red over here but otherwise was exactly the same. Seeing this reuse of the toy unlocked a core memory I had forgotten.

[@2DayRentals]

Very cool. I love when that happens. I guess yours looked similar to the one on the box? Interesting that it was even repurposed for Aliens but, I get it they were trying to maximize off the brand name and get rid of some old inventory is my guess. Thanks for sharing and watching!

[@2DayRentals]

Yes, it’s frustrating for me because I’m well aware that there’s no S at the end. Not sure why I started saying it during recording but I didn’t catch it till after the video was edited and mixed down. I have limited time to record so I just had to roll with it. I appreciate you watching though.

[@WarriorTier]

Man, what a great channel, your collection is amazing! I had no idea about half of this stuff. Aliens was always my favorite franchise and toy line as a kid. I loved the toys so much! About 15 years ago, I remember someone who worked for Kenner was selling a few prototype alien toys that were never released on eBay. I remember they went for crazy cheap too. Parents got ride of my Alien toys when I went to college, I own an original AvP arcade board but that’s about it for my collection. Also I still read all the Alien books and comics that come out. Keep up the great work!

[@2DayRentals]

Thank you so much. It’s a life long commitment 😂 I really wished I could have gotten my hands on some of this prototypes…something like that would’ve been awesome to have in the collection. My folks are usually really good about checking with me first before they get rid of stuff. I am sure some stuff slipped through the cracks. Thanks for the kind words. Really enjoy the conversations look forward to many more.

[@MrGreen-qf5mk]

As a kid, I was obsessed with these movies, and after collecting all the Kenner toys, I also would end up finding weird random items at comic shops. I had the Alien 3 head keychain, and all sorts of weird stuff. Including an Operation Aliens Mold paint kit. I've since sold a lot of the random stuff though, but have kept most of the Kenner toys. I'm very interested in that Kenner document.

[@2DayRentals]

That’s awesome. Yeah it’s tough after awhile some tough decisions have to be made on what to hang on to and what to get rid of… I don’t think I will ever part with my Kenner figures. That Mold paint kits seems interesting…never seen one of those before. Hopefully I will get a chance to START working on the Internal Kenner documentation…I’ve been in contact with a former Kenner employee to help shed some light on a few things. Really appreciate you checking out my channel and sharing your stories.

[@VMIFerrari]

Remember the "Mini Drop Ship" that Kenner had planned to release for the Aliens toy line around 1994 but never did? Well, they already had the molds made so they released it in their "VR Troopers" toy line as the *_VR Pursuit Jet,_* instead.

[@2DayRentals]

110% I actually picked one up a few years ago. I still need to re paint it to really give it that Aliens aesthetic. I think I may have mentioned it in one of my other videos though briefly. Thanks so much for stopping down and check out my channel and joining in on the conversation…also for reminding me I need to repaint that Pursuit Jet to make it truly become the mini drop ship! 🤣

[@darthalba3785]

Loved the line as a kid. Would get the figures, micromachines, and anything with the Predator. Man still remember discovering the arcade of Aliens vs Predator which made me love the franchise even more.

[@2DayRentals]

Ahhh yes. That AvP arcade game is absolutely incredible. Those were the days. Going to arcades and seeing brand new games you never knew existed. Good times. Thanks for watching.

[@magaz]

5:07 that board game! I spent hours playing that as a kid!

[@magaz]

10:19 those blasters. We had them in the UK as well. Maybe not under the Aliens line. But we definitely had them. A friend had a pair and we would do battle at his house with them! Edit: I commented before watching the section. So did you only get one in the box? The set my friend had came as a two pack and they work as a laser tag game. The lights on the top are your “lives” and they would deplete as you took hits. On the box art you will see a black thing over the laser emitter. This folds up and down. In the down position it keeps the beam precise and when you lift it up the beam is much wider making it easier to hit your opponent.

[@2DayRentals]

Oh no way! I never known anyone to have played it. That’s awesome. Seems like a very scaled down version of the “Another Glorious Day in The Corp” Board game that was released a couple of years ago. Very cool.

[@2DayRentals]

Yeah only one came in the box I found. Very interesting as now I am understanding a bit more about them and what you’re saying makes total sense. Really appreciate you sharing this good bit of info as it helps clear your some questions I had about them. Tanks for checking out my channel!

[@greggharmston8992]

Thank you so much for sharing these! I have been a huge Aliens fan since I was a kid and I have never seen some of these before. Amazing. The company that made the bubble bath also made lots of other 90s franchise stuff (TMNT etc) and I think they were based in the UK because we had lots of their stuff in shops over here. Also I had the Operation: Aliens stationary set so I guess I was a pretty cool kid in hindsight 😎

[@10mtproductions55]

My brother is an avid Aliens fan and when we were kids in the 90s he collected the hell out of the Kenner line. You know when people claim they had an entire toy run when they were kids? That was my brother. He owned every single Kenner Aliens release that hit UK toy shelves. He came home with the Scorpion Alien, Bull Alien, Ripley, Drake, the Stinger and the Power Loader the first day they hit the shelves (he was working as a paperboy for a small retail chain and spotted them in the store room waiting to be put on the shelves) and every week he'd come home on Saturday with at least one new figure and committed to the line for the entire duration. The only releases he never got were the Queen Hive playset as that never retailed over here as well as the KB Toys repaints and Hive Wars figures (again, didn't hit retail here) though he did secure the Evac Fighter, a vehicle that never was released here by Kenner UK here but ended up in discount chains from unsold American stock. Recently I've been collecting the line and been looking up information on the unproduced figures like the unreleased Dropship and Mini-Dropshit vehicles, the rest of the Hive Wars line, the Jungle Hunter Space Marines (meant to represent the human characters from Predator) and so on, but this video here is the first time I've ever seen anything about planned roleplaying items. And to see photos no less! The helmet and the Smartgun are pretty damn cool and I would've loved to have seen those be released. The gatling gun being a repurposed Robo-Blaster from Kenner's 'Robocop and the Ultra Police' line doesn't really surprise me as Kenner were well known for reusing old toys in newer lines. I would love to see that Market research document and any photos of the toys it contains. I spotted kitbashed Aliens that appear to be be using the originally planned 1979 Alien mold (I believe I read somewhere that Kenner planned to use these molds at some point in the late 80s but scrapped that) as well as a mock-up/kitbashed Dropship vehicle too which appears to be more crude looking compared to the photos/videos of the finalized design that never released, but still an interesting look at the design process. I'm eagerly looking forward to that video.

[@2DayRentals]

I love reading people stories of their journey into collecting or how they got into certain things. So thank you so much for sharing. Seems like your brother really had it made! Makes it a bit easier to collect when you’re younger if you a your own money to play around with. It’s kind of the same story with the bright colored variants that seemed to have a much larger distribution in the UK. Luckily I have secured those but, sadly only have one complete. That document I have is really fascinating. There is ALOT of information to unpack. I am hoping to get some time with the former Kenner employee who wrote the document and I acquired it from to gain some more insight. I really appreciate you taking the time to share your stories and checking out my channel. I love talking about this stuff and look forward to more conversations!

[@10mtproductions55]

@@2DayRentals Thanks. I actually played a part in my brother getting the wave 3 Marines. I was in our local Woolworths after school one day and spotted O'Malley on the shelf. I knew of the three new Marines already from the cardbacks of the wave 3 Aliens already and even though my brother had already joked about not wanting O'Malley (he disliked the idea of a new character rather than a movie one) said he'd get it anyway because he'd make him Gorman. I checked the shelves for the other two and spotted Hudson. I put them both in the back of one of the peg racks and ran home to tell him they were in stock. He wasted no time in securing them as he wanted Hudson as he was my brother's favourite character, though he hated the gimmicky torpedo launching backpack accessory. The following week I was back there checking the shelves again and no sign of Vasquez still. On the off chance I asked an employee if they had one in the back and sure enough they did. I didn't have the money to get it for him but took the figure, did the same tick except this time I hid it behind a different line of action figures (he had asked me to do that if I spotted any figures he was looking for) and ran home to let him know. That day he came home with Vasquez and I think another Arachnid Alien as his first one had broken. I'm glad I did that as during the rest of the line's run he and I never saw another Vasquez or Hudson in the wild again and I knew of at least two other people who were collecting the line, so my brother had bragging rights when my two friends saw those figures in his collection. To this day he still has all the figures, boxed up and safely put away. For a while he genuinely believed someone he knew had swiped his Vasquez figure as he had her sitting in the Evac Fighter but turns out he had put her away with the rest. He pulled out the Hovertread vehicle and the batteries from 1994 were still in there and still working! I picked up a Hovertread back in 2018 and the batteries I put in didn't even last long. Although my collection is nothing compared to his, it has been slowly building up. I got a good deal on a loose set of all the Space Marines with all the accessories minus Apone's grenades and the clip to O'Malley's capture claw. The claw is a goofy accessory so I'm in no rush to get it complete at the moment and O'Malley isn'treally a sought after figure. Hudson's backpack had a crack in it but I managed to find the original version on eBay for a good price to replace it and thankfully Vasquez was complete. Besides the Marines I have a few loose Aliens including the two Hive Wars xenos and a loose Queen Hive playset which is just missing the Ooze and the little chestburster. I also picked up the mailaway Ambush Predator, a figure we never got over here because I had longed for an invisible Predator back in the 90s when I was picking up that line (my brother wanted to focus solely on the Aliens line). Sadly he has discoloration on his limbs but I might try and see if I can get that fixed.

[@2DayRentals]

@@10mtproductions55 man you have great stories! Glad you played a part in your brothers collection and have started to build yours as well. I am all for collecting loose figures and build up the accessories later… some of them I am in no rush to get because much like you said they are more toyetic and kind of silly. I’m working on several new customs for this line and that’s where I think I will put most of attention moving forward. Never say never though if I am at a convention and see good prices on things I usually snag them. Either just to have a duplicates or potentially use for expansions and customs. Long term I do have some plans and pieces for a legit drop ship that even holds a vehicle. I ran into some construction issues with my first go around so, it was back to the drawing board. With so much content from the Aliens and AvP comics the possibilities are endless in ways to expand this line. It’s shame that Kenner didn’t pull more from the comics but, that’s okay gives me something to work on now. Really love the stories! Keep them coming and thanks for sharing!

[@pburke5760]

I owned the hocks laser tag gun years before the aliens line came out

[@2DayRentals]

Yeah, it definitely looks like these were repurposed for the Aliens line. Guess they have some inventory they were trying to move. Thanks for watching!

[@BoopedNose]

Awesome collection 👍 i met jennette Goldstein (Vasquez) and Tom skerritt (Dallas) at Manchester comic con last week, Jennette was the best, such a friendly sweet lady, tom was nice too but poor fella looking so thin and ill, like all his 91 years caught up to him all at once,Vasquez signed my neca smart gunner figure, its now my favourite thing in the house think i treasure it more than my kids 😁

[@2DayRentals]

Thanks so much! Aw that’s amazing you got to meet Tom Skerritt. Crazy to think he is that old but I’m glad he is still willing to make the trips to the cons. The one time I met Jeanette Goldstein she was lovely. I really appreciate you stopping down and checking out my channel! Live sharing stories about the things we love. Cheers!

[@tendertoxin]

hearing operations instead of operation aliens was jarring a bit xD

[@2DayRentals]

Yeah, it’s a bummer because I don’t know why I kept saying it that way. I have referred to it in other videos with out the slip up. Sadly I didn’t catch it until the video was mixed down and with a limited time to record, edit and work on my videos I had to roll with the punches. Thanks for checking out my video nonetheless!

[@TheVileOne]

That blaster is one I don’t remember

[@2DayRentals]

It definitely took me by surprise too. Never seen another. Who knows how much other stuff there is out there we’ve never seen 🤯

[@GoreGazzim]

I have some ing in my collection that's kinda rare. It's from the operation aliens line.. It's a plaster mould set.

[@2DayRentals]

Oh snap. Yeah I’m not sure I have ever seen one of those in person! Just some blurry pictures. Thats awesome! Thanks so much for checking out my channel!

[@theharbinger00]

Cool stuff. I use to have all the figures but had to pay rent so they all left me. I still have operation aliens posters though. There were 2 different promo posters if you have them?

[@2DayRentals]

I know for sure I have seen one poster not sure if I have seen the second one…the only one I have seen looks like the figure case. I don’t have either. Would love to though…Thanks for stopping down and checking out my channel.

[@xenofett7008]

I still have my ALIENS door poster.

[@2DayRentals]

@@xenofett7008 oh nice! I’d still like to find one in decent shape. Thanks for checking out the video!

[@Chef_Alpo]

​@@2DayRentalsthey do reproductions of them, I had one for a long time next to my full length mirror.

[@2DayRentals]

@@Chef_Alpo right on I’ll have to try to look for one. I’ve always thought it was a really bad ass poster. Thanks for the heads up.

[@MattPerrette87]

Awesome vid. I too have a pretty substantial Alien collection. Most “out there” thing I own is a collection of Japanese Alien soap dispensers. They’re pretty cool and haven’t seen them pop up much. How much was the popcorn bucket? I’d love to get one but scalpers are being dickheads again 😞

[@2DayRentals]

Thanks so much! WOW never heard of those soap dispensers. Definitely out there. Love it. Luckily I was able to grab the popcorn bucket at the theater for 25 bucks. 😮‍💨 I have seen that scalpers are being lame again…I hate that stuff. I really appreciate you stopping down and joining the conversation!

[@jamessmith5666]

I collected the Aliens and Predator toy-line as well in the 90's. But living in Australia, I didn't have as much access to all the stuff released. Definitely not as much as your collection though! Shame the animation never got made.. I think it'd be a hit as an AvP series with those conceptualized characters if it was done as an adult anime like Blood of Zeus on Netflix.

[@2DayRentals]

It always interesting to hear about what kind of reach certain things had across the world. It’s a shame Australia didn’t get more on their shelves. You’re absolutely right it’s a shame that Fox passed on the idea for the cartoon. Maybe with Disney owning the rights now and seeing their work with XMen 97 we can one day get something that closely resembles what they would’ve done. Thanks so much for stopping down and joining the conversation!

[@joshuahawkins2743]

As a kid i loved the kenner line of alien toys when neca came into the picture now that im a adult my parents should be glad that wasnt around when i wàs a kid cause i would have been begging for all of them

[@TonyBMW]

I remember going out to buy the poster with the alien busting through the wall but it was sold out 🤷‍♂️

[@2DayRentals]

Bummer! It’s a cool poster and I can imagine it would sell out quick. Someone commented earlier that you can buy reproductions still currently. Need to look 👀

[@2DayRentals]

Thanks for checking out my channel dude!

[@miketharme6815]

I have most of the other Japanese Aliens keychains, I got the xenomorph egg with facehugger, Dog alien head, queen head, space jockey, and chestburster, the only one i'm missing is the other alien head

[@2DayRentals]

Damn I didn’t even know they had others. I should’ve figured they did. Very cool. Thanks for sharing and checking out my channel.

[@brybryguy6314]

I had them all I kid you not. I had a fisher price toy chest filled alone with alien and predator action figures

[@2DayRentals]

Rad! A Fischer Price toy chest full! Damn what good memories. I did have the entire line as a kid. I had a several. It took many more years later to get them all. Thank you so much for commenting and checking out my channel.

[@joshuahawkins2743]

I found a aliens coloring book at Walmart about a month ago ya i got it thought it was cool to see it

[@2DayRentals]

Oh no way! Thats awesome! I need to track that down!

[@captainbishop]

Mate those alien stencils are class. Any chance you could scan them? I could replicate them on my laser cutter on proper stencil plastic

[@2DayRentals]

That would be rad. I will try and see if I can work on getting them scanned or something and keep ya in the loop. Thanks for checking out my channel!

[@rgoblin34]

😮, Could you make a custom predalien with the gorilla alien body and the night recon predator head from the hive wars line?

[@2DayRentals]

That is a brilliant idea! I just may have to do that! Thanks!

[@rgoblin34]

If you do, post a video. 👍

[@2DayRentals]

@@rgoblin34 absolutely! Great eye!

[@chonger83]

Bop Bag would stay in the box for sure. I'd be disappointed to find that it had a hole or deteriorated in some way, making it impossible to enjoy. Best to live with the idea instead.

[@2DayRentals]

Definitely. Best to leave to mystery. I could see that old plastic rubbery material becoming a bit fragile over the years. Thanks so much for checking out my channel and joining in the conversation.

[@sr20det85]

I collect some of the aliens stuff but I mostly collect Ghostbusters mostly. See what I did there? Lol anyways I have honestly never seen any of this stuff. Very cool. I love oddball stuff like that and learning about it. I think if I sad any of that stuff in store as a kid I would have probably wanted it. I think that was one reason why they made that stuff they were gearing up to make a cartoon but probably thought it wasn’t for kids at the end of the day. Sure would have been cool to see. Probably would have gotten a lot more toys if it did happen. Unfortunately Kenner was being bought out in the early 90s by Hasbro and I think Hasbro was just pushing out everything that Kenner had in its line ups as fast as they could to make its investment back from buying Kenner but maybe that’s me. I know it probably was a weird time for Kenner back then with most of the licensing and Hasbro buying them.

[@2DayRentals]

I see what you did there. Sick reference 😂 nice to see another collector of the oddball stuff too. Much like you said even as a kid I was into the off the beaten path type items that are just quirky and unusual. Guess now that I’m in my 40s not much has changed. I’m totally with you on how the cartoon could have brought even more people to be exposed to the franchise plus it would’ve just been so cool to have an animated Aliens series. I’m kind of surprised no one has attempted it since. Kenner had such an incredible run for about 20 years or so. So many licensed properties. They will always be my favorite toy company. Thanks so much for checking out the video!

[@nammis77]

That smart gun that neve got released has a chopper hand controller attached to it. Must be something the just threw together. Its definatly the wrong way to hold it. I still have one of those chopper controllers. Different buttons on it. Sounds like machine gun. Dropping bombs etc. So funny to see that.

[@2DayRentals]

Damn good eye sir. I was thinking they had to have kit bashed that together for a proof of concept prototype situation. Kenner loves to reuse pieces from their toys lines so I wouldn’t be surprised if they intended on doing something like that if it ever got released. Thanks for pointing that out and thanks for stopping down to check out my channel.

[@PotatoOnASpork]

Operation(s): Aliens

[@2DayRentals]

Yeah, it’s a bummer. Not sure why I was mispronouncing it..didn’t catch it until after I had the video mixed down. Ah well. Stuff like that happens. Thanks for watching the video though!

[@Fawkyoutube]

It’s operation aliens not operations aliens lol

[@2DayRentals]

Yeah, I unfortunately I noticed I jumbled the pronunciation after I had mixed down the video. I have limited time to record and edit so I just had to roll with the punches. Shit happens… not the first to point it out and I’m sure not the last. Thanks for checking out the video nonetheless.

[@alexharmon5598]

Operation Aliens dude. No S

[@2DayRentals]

Yeah, noticed I added that S for some reason if though I know better. I didn’t noticed it until the video was mixed down. I have limited time to record so I just had to roll with the punches… sucks but shit happens. Thanks for watching nonetheless.

[@elhuracan8204]

El Duende Azul arruino la caja.

[@2DayRentals]

I was wondering what that was. Thanks for chiming in and for watching my video.
