I'd certainly pay good money for a decent sized Queen, 35in-ish

Appreciate the feedback, and I dont disagree... but she's going to be sized to go with the Alien King. Brace yourselves with reasonable expectations...

Same Size? So basically the same size of the previous Alien Queen diorama?
If yes it's disappointing...

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Was the previous Alien Queen the same size as the Alien King?

if you want bigger go with Prime and Cool Props. No need to settle for wierd poses anymore.

Ok, Igo. No problem with that, but my advice is to price it accordingly (eg to the cheaper side) in order to achieve 2 things. 1) Avoid collectors going apesh..t all over facebook about this being overpriced compared to its size ("2000doll Sideshow for this, are you crazy? Easy pass, dudes") , 2) Give the average collector the opportunity to buy a top-quality Alien product, ok small in size, but reasonable priced. In other words, make it small, but do not price out "average collectors".

My 0.36 cents, Igo.

I agree, if you want to pay $2,000 for your giant Queen wait for Prime One

Instead of 1:10 queen and king statues and wonky 1:6 alien statues I'd much rather a 1:4 Ripley...
