Firstly, love the stance but may not be liked by others.

When i first see it i was drooling and THEN i see the close up's of the head!

Looks like they are using the SAME pointy dome as the last lifesize they did (which i owned) and they have made what i would say are crude adjustments to the mouth area.

I mean look at the coolprops head, far better and far different to the one on this statue. What's with the ribbing around the dome edge, i mean what the hell is it doing there!

Ahhhh man!

HCG did say however it was a prototype so you never know, they may correct it but i feel that is how it will look when released.

It's up, $7k.

Very plasticy looking tendrils/lips, And it looks like it has eyebrows under the dome.

There's no excuse for this being as bad as it is with all the reference material out there and while it's "posed" it's not natural looking at all.

Looks OK overall though. Better than their previous attempt at a full-size Big Chap.

they should have just gone with the museum version like in Giger's studio.

Love the pose on the Alien, much like Bolaji on set. Will be adding to the collection, that base though, it's going to be a pain trying to display him.
