They are both 1/3 scale as far as I know so they should be in scale.

Thoughts?

They are both actually. THey are intelligent and crafty and work together, but they are also brutal and use each other as stepping stools to get to prey.

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

Yes like killing each other in order to get free in Alien Resurrection. That scene was epic. stepping 'hole' to free themselves. #acidbloodftw

Ah my bad. I thought you were talking about the XM Predator. Yeah I’ve got a lot of his kits and they are normally 1/6ish so I found it kind of odd that the Falanxer is 1/8. I’ve been looking for his Bad Blood kit for ages. That’s one of the pieces that keeps eluding me since I wasn’t collecting his Predator kits when that was released. I know Sideshow did it but it was nowhere as good.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

I agree that the head stepping pose looks off, making the stepped on alien look submissive as his head is forced downwards. A slight adjustment could be the upper alien stepping on/off his shoulder(?), allowing the lower alien’s head to be positioned upturned, and slightly twisting, snarling at his kin. Would add variety and tension to head positions, with the added bonus of possibly shortening the depth of the statue.
Still, a master work, a master sculpt. Brilliant.

The teeth and "face" are all wrong. He looks buck-toothed. The teeth are jutting out too far forward. And the face should not be wrinkled like that. It's not soft tissue, it's an exoskeleton. It's hard like an insect. The face should be completely smooth.

Hands are wrong too. The middle two fingers should be "double fingers". Like two fingers joined. This is a pretty nice sculpt and has potential, but not screen accurate at all.

Why should it be screen accurate when it´s not based on a movie? The fingers are 100% right, because it´s the Giger Alien, not from the movie.

Thanks for that retort Grumpy...I was about to say the same thing. People have got to realize this is creative....meaning...don't put every thing seen in a movie into XM's / Narin's Predator and / or Alien concepts.
