Awesome THX! I love the Icons ships, too bad I can't find them anymore!
And I had the chance to get some in the past and didn't! :banghead:

ps: In case you decide to sell one of the X-Wings in the future, let me know! ;)

I've always liked the environment bases for the ships. I hope it is something Code3 will do on future releases.

You trow your Icons X-Wings to me! :laugh:
Really nice ships. :) I also didn't know that the Alien chestburster was this big, or is this impression caused by the picture angle?
I almost bought it many times. Can you take a picture of it? :D

No kidding. That would be awesome. They could also sell some sculpted bases for their older models, as an extra. I would defenetly get it for my Code's. :)

Well, it's big enough. Here's a size reference pic of my AP Hybrid with 6" Robo. and 12" Hot Toys Military.

Who are the X-Wings made by?

Icons, a company long out of business.

As I've said before, my LCS has an Icons TIE for sale, but I don't remember it being in very good condition. They also wanted like $1,500 or something for it. :puke2:

THX, That Icons X-Wing is absolutely amazing! I can't wait for the MR Studio Scale version.

I would buy the chestburster also, but I hate that it's a hybrid one from AvP. I've never seen that movie, and I don't plan too. I wish MR would make an original chestburster from Alien.

I remember almost buying those Icons pieces YEARS ago. They are very nice! It's great you have two X-wings!!!

For those that are interested in them, make sure you find out if the wings on the X-wing are "drooping." I have heard that a lot of them are now giving in to gravity and sagging. There were some pictures over at RPF and the wings looked really bad.

So make sure you find out before you buy it.

No. The chestburster doesn't come with the display case.

Yes Gruson, it happens on mine too. Icons didn't reinforce the wings like MR did on AT-AT's legs. The funny part is,a hairdryer will easily fix the "drooping" problem. Just heat the wings up a bit and they will automatically "go back" to their original position. They usually last a year and a half or two before the next "maintenance". TIE doesn't have any kind of problem thou..

Very nice collection, THX! But you need to make those pictures smaller in size! :) Do you use PS? If yes, then use the option to "save for web".
I don't know about you guys, but took me forever and a half to load them. :laugh:

ps: The MR Alien CB arrived, awesome piece! Thanks. :)
