Mamegyorai 1/3 Big Chap Alien

Update:

This is limited to 750 pieces, will be sold via Sideshow and will be around $1780 ish. So certainly not cheap, but it is spectacular....











Don't think we ever had a thread for this beauty on here. I'm in two minds about it, the sculpt and attention to detail are incredible. However, the pose chosen (while classic for the character) Hides a lot of the sculpt, including the best bit which is that menacing human scull beneath the dome. Still, it's an interesting statue and I look forward to seeing it develop. And yes, this makes it three 1/3 Big chaps in development. Coolprops, Prime 1 and this.

It’s a great sculpt but I’ve always hated that pose, I know it’s classic alien but it always reminds me of someone that just been kicked in the love spuds!

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

I can see that lol, but I quite like the pose myself, I just don't think I'd buy a statue of it unless the price is surprisingly low, which this won't be.

You can't yet, it's a work in progress project, but you can keep an eye on their website. Being able to speak Japanese will help.

Looks like he's trying to relieve himself. Hilariously awful pose.

It's funny how subjective things can be. I'd find it ridiculous also if it were a human character, but I don't mind weird (inhuman) poses when it comes to Alien creatures etc. Here's some context in the form of the original suit...

Classic Alien pose. I can understand how it would look silly to someone who has never seen it before or didn't grow up with the character.

I thought this was just a custom piece or something. So it's actually going to be up for pre-order? Painted?
