I used to have it, it was awful, the paint job and detail were pretty crap.

It is defiantly the worst piece that Palisades have produced.

Maybe the micro version is better ???

I have it... I like it.. perhaps not the best statue and perhaps you could find some paint issues . but
I think it's still a very nice statue. One of a kind really..I go check my Imageshack.. should have some piccies up there..

Hmm. I can find only one.. I 'd swear I had taken more.. Anyway, I really like it. Perhaps it depends how big a fan you are of the franchise.

I don't have my camera with me right now or I would take some new pictures..

Do get me wrong Xeno, i'm a big fan of Palisades' and i own quite a few of their Alien / Predator busts and statue's.

But i thought that the lifesize Facehugger was poor compared to their other stuff.

Yea from what I've heard the detail is fantastic. Right down to the purple marks where the facehugger is squeezing the head. I would go and get this if the price was right, but I can only seem to find it for $450.

I have an artist proof - the sculpt is fantastic, the paintjob is about B+. It is a pretty imposing piece. I have a lot of 1:1 scale stuff and people that visit my house consistently think it's one of the more imposing sculpts.
