        I saw them this weekend, but I didn’t pick them up. I will eventually. There’s too many NECA figures that I want!!!

          Must purchase! Love these figures! I'm with you Brian. I would gladly pay $$ for 8" Alien movie franchise figures, as I have been dreaming for Aliens figures by Neca for years.
          C'mon Neca toys. You know you want to make 'em!
          I post in thy general direction!

            I pick and choose on the NECA stuff. These are near the top of my list. Normally I like to compliment a custom figure by saying it looks factory; I'll flip the script and say these remind me of really nice customs for which someone would pay a premium. These would fit right in with a collection of Martin's work.

              That's what I'm hoping for when mine finally make it over to the UK. I ordered these as soon as they showed up (along with the Halloween 3 three pack), and thought that both sets should sit in nicely with their Distinctive Dummies cousins. I tend to only pick up the odd Neca cloth release that fits in with my collecting and even though they are always so well made and come with great accessories they don't quite hold the same charm as a DD figure. Saying that though they have had some great releases recently that I can't pass up on so the collection just keeps on growing.

                Those are really cool. I would have killed for figures from this movie when it first came out. We need a Piper, though!

                  Adding the Kirk figure was an inspired choice.

                          Picked these up a couple of weeks ago when saw them at a store. Just couldn’t resist them. They had them for $55 so it thought that was s good price, based on what I had seen online. I really like them and now I’m even more excited if there’s a Piper coming. That was my only complaint.

                            I've seen a few complaints about the fragile nature of the female character's thin and brittle limbs.

                            I've read that some factory sealed figures are broken inside unopened packages.

                            Anyone having similar problems?

                              I personally didn't experience it save for the shoe issue making her wobbly.
