Aliens USCM 12" Figures from Hot Toys

[Royd]

Only just found out about these awesome Aliens/USCM 12" figures from Hot Toys (distributed by Sideshow) featuring some of my all-time fave characters such as Hicks, Hudson, Vasquez etc. I've been searching/hoping that someone would make a decent 12" USCM figure and they're finally here!

You can see them at -

Apologies if this information has been posted before but I did conduct a search without finding any relevant information :) Best,

Well, I had to wait a month but I was finally able to pick up the last US Colonial Marine Hicks figure from my local specialist toy/statue shop - woohoo!

The 12" Hicks figure looks awesome and comes complete with:

Articulated Neck Guard
Helmet Strap and Internal Pads
Articulated M3 Body Armor
M10 Pattern Helmet with Pull-Down Infrared Sight
Tactical Camera
Microphone
Front Strike Plate
M41A Pulse Rifle with Padded Sling
Shotgun with Cover
Shoulder Lamp
Personal Data Transmitter (PDT)
Hand Held Locator
Motion Tracker with Sling
Webbing
Equipment Straps
Metal Sling Points
Figure display stand

Here's a pic of this figure which is sold out at Hot Toys and most other places and which I've seen on ebay for ridiculous prices:

I did get the Hicks sometime back before sideshow was selling them.
Very cool. Looks great next to the warrior statue. The attention to details is simply amazing. Even the eye recticle has targeting image on it.

Though it requires putting him all together, and I mean damn near everything! It takes a good hour or more to assemble. You have to play dress up with your dolly! LOL

Looking forward to playing dress up with the USCM "dolly" :) I'd love to create a scene with both Hicks and the Alien warrior figure but I don't think I can justify the extra expenditure - heh. Best,
