Alien Warrior 1/3 - Prime 1

[Halcyon]

Size matches the large 1/4.. as expected.
But Prime kept saying 1/3 on FB.

Well, the Warrior is severely hunched over and the BGCA is more like 1/3.5.

That would've been my ideal setup had Prime 1 not screwed up the Predator's paint.

Love that pic! That duo looks sensational.

I won't argue that it's perfect, because it's definitely a different shade to the actual JH, more noticeable in pictures and when compared to screenshots etc obviously. But in person, it's such a damn good statue and it looks like the JH even to my eye. Maybe consider it if you still like it, it's so much more impressive in person than you can imagine.

I am curious though, putting aside the Prime 1 1/3 which is in a different league to pretty much anything. Has there actually been a better painted JH than the Prime 1 1/4, even taking the shading into account? I can't really think of one, the SWS doesn't even come close and that's widely regarded as a "grail".

The paint is a bit soft due to being airbrushed, but I'd have been happy if the BGCA turned out like Infinity's Classic (from the Berserker diorama, not sure if that counts).

Prime1 is now also selling the Alien Eggs loose.
Quite expensive for $300 (closed) and $350usd (open).

Pitty these aren't fully 1/3 but go great with the Alien warrior and BG CoverArt (large 1/4).
But even for exactly 1/3 i would not pay $350 excl shipping and tax.

Save your judgment until you see this piece in person. Anyone who thinks this is 1/4 scale is out of their mind. It's absolutely MASSIVE in person and 100% matches up to the same height as the Big Chap. And the eggs are like the size of an American football.

I just unboxed mine today, #19. Prime 1 did a much better job with the gloss application on this when compared to the Big Chap, however I will probably add another coat of gloss Mod Podge at some point just to really make him shine. I'm quite impressed though with everything from the fit and finish to the packaging.

Some quick unboxed photos before I take better ones...









Thank god he fit perfectly in a space I had relatively available.

Nice pics, very cool piece. Those eggs are huge! Kind of tempted to get the open egg with hugger... hmm.

Do you also have the BigGame CoverArt Predator in your collection?

Because it is the same size.

Congrats with this Alien btw, Very nice.

No I don't, but we all know Big Game Pred is easily 1/3.5 scale. Also, this Warrior Alien is so hunched over, even more so in person at approximately a 75 degree angle from vertical, that any 2D photo of him really doesn't show how big he is. He towers over any 1/4 figure I have, including the Prime 1 City Hunter and SS 1/4 P1.

And thank you.
