lol, they must be paying a fortune to camp this license as long as they possibly can. The Hallmark reference was perfect.

It looks like they took what was going to be the EX piece for the Warrior statue and just thought "hey we could sell this separately".

They are trying to increase the odds of this being displayed out in the open

I don't like how the hugger looks so ridged and lifeless. Like it tried to hatch, but died and is laying limp over the casing.
I like it! It reminds me of a spider descending on a web line, and come on now, not all facehuggers have to do the jack in the box routine, this one is all sly and silent.
I'll wait and see the price though, to see if it is reasonable.

What a joke. This should be given away for free as an exclusive with a 1/5 statue not a standalone product. I hope nobody buys this junk.

Something like this should be at the very least 1:4 scale. And even that's a bit small for a stand alone egg display piece.
Should have been bigger. That I can agree with.

lol. Attakus do a 1/5 egg, everyone likes it. Sideshow release the same thing, everyone loses their minds.

Sideshow has made a life size egg already. Whilst I would have preferred if this was 1:2 or 1:3, I don't mind them making a small scale egg as a companion piece to the existing statues released, so long as it's priced accordingly.

$65 is less than I thought it would be. Still looks like a Hallmark ornament though.

I could see someone getting this to put on the desk at work or home or something. Price is not terrible and if you really want an egg to go with the rest of your 1/5, then there you go.
