Agreed, and if they get those teeth needle sharp and nice chrome looking, they'll have it up to Hot Toys standards.

Because, of all the horror stories and pics of HT's rubber deteriorating.
does that mean you won't be getting Iron man Mk II or III then?

And...more pics!

One showing the cool base.

One thing that is seriously disappointing me right now is that I don't see the extra thumbs on the hands pictured.
If they leave that out, it'll just look like Alien warrior hands...and I'm gonna be pissed!

The more I look at this the more disappointed I am.

The dome/skull is really starting to get to me.
I mean, how hard is it for them to get that right?

Do they not care as much about the Alien fans as they do the Pred fans?

They tried very hard to get the original Pred right.
Why not this?

Hot Toys...you're about to lose another customer.

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

Very disappointing. Looks NOTHING like the original Giger Alien. The head is way off.

An easy pass. They just can't get it right...

NECAs 21" alien is much better than this. Better colors, 1/4 scale, more accurate and best of all only $39.99!!!

I saw 3 of the NECA aliens in spencers gifts in x local mall.

Check it out...you won't be dissapointed...

no joke. I've had mine for about a year, and it's still not put together. The fott has come off because I smashed it so hard on the table trying to get it together after pouring water from a kettle over the joint

Brains over braun

Pouring water will not work. It needs to be constantly surronded by hot water " submerged"

Sorry you broke the foot... Was a bit aggrovating

But still better alien than hot toys

The skull eye socket looks very out of whack, not that you see it in the movie, but why is it set back and up so high and misshapen?
This sucks, because I think they got the dome shape right which is rare.

And across the board, nobody ever quite gets those teeth right. They are supposed to be chrome and needle sharp.

I hope they make some changes!
