What about Original X Factor Iceman ?. Regards.

Me too.

I think the general idea may have been to release both Bishop (Clean) and Ferro with the dropship. It makes sense to me as both piloted one. Maybe the demise of Toys R Us curtailed that ?.

I second this. What retailer though ?.

More likely as I said in an previous post, maximise revenue.

Anyone else think the Dropship will come in two versions, one with Ferro and a battle damaged one with Bishop like the APC ?.

Saying that, to me it looks like the controls in the figures hands might attach to the arms, maybe.

The power loader controls in Ripleys hands should be attached to the power loaders arms, I'm open to be corrected if I'm wrong.

If you look through the Crisis for Infinite Minimates thread under C2E2 you will see pictures for all the figures plus the Alien Queen and Powerloader.

When will Series Two be available to buy ?.

Have the same four pack, no trouble here. Aliens Series Two thread.

I noticed the same thing. There's been talk of doing vehicles since the license was announced. In terms of scale, I'm thinking it'd be great if DST was able to offer the APC as an electronic vehicle (like the BTTF Time Machine and KITT from Knight Rider). Bishop was the APC driver and Gorman commanded the mission from it and Ferro was the Dropship pilot. It makes sense to use those three for vehicles. Would be brilliant to get both of those and set up a sort of display to.

Bishops upper torso and fluid damage comes with the Xenomorph Queen.

Not sure what we're doing for S3. I believe we have ideas/plans for the others. Characters will look the same in both assortments, Aliens aside. Plausable option would be Bishop and Gorman with an APC and Ferro with an dropship. I'm sure both vehicles wouldn't be beyond the capabilities of Diamond Select, hint hint lol.

Series 2 - Ripley in Jacket and Newt, Vasquez and Hudson, Frost and Alien, Crowe and Alien with Alien egg's (shortpacked). Getting a full wave might be a potential problem in the making due to the shortpacked Crowe. Aliens Series Three to get Gorman, Ferro and Bishop ?. I'm happy that Vasquez and Hudson are in the second series and not just Toys R Us exclusives as I'm from the UK. Be interested to see Toys R Us series to see what exactly the differences in the appearances of the characters will be.

Personally I like the re-sealable packaging, it's very neat and concise. When you separate the card from the bubble, your stuck with it like that.

Can't say i had an issue with mine. One question I have is how come Marvel minimates get packaging you can re-seal and Aliens etc. don't ?.

Thought I'd start this for discussion of the forthcoming series.

Bishop looks like he had an interesting nighttime experience.

I was wondering who will comprise the second wave and this is my guess. Now let's assume wave 2 will be similar to wave 1 (8 different characters). So far we have seen prototypes for Landing Party Ripley (with leather jacket), Newt, Frost and flaming xenomorph. Now let's assume for argument sake those are paired up together. That's half the wave there. Four slots left. Vasquez and Hudson have been confirmed for a TRU wave, so they are out. Another Ripley will come with the power loader and a BD Bishop will come with the Queen (if rumours are correct). That leaves Gorman, Ferro and Bishop (non BD). Pair Gorman with Bishop and Ferro with another xenomorph (jaw openned with no tongue) and there is a very plausible wave 2 IMO. Anybody else care to weigh in? Wave Two - Ripley with jacket and Newt, Crowe and Xenomorph, Frost and Xenomorph, Bishop and Gorman or Ferro ?. If Hudson and Vazquez are exclusives, I'd imagine Ferro could be packed with a dropship, should one be made of course as that makes sense. Hudson and Vasquez are TRU wave 1 exclusives along with Ripley and Hicks, all 4 each packed with an Alien. I'd say Wave 2 is Ripley/Newt, Frost/Burning Alien, Bishop/Crowe, Gorman/Ferro. I think we'll see motion trackers in this wave and hopefully a cutting torch, possibly packed with Bishop. Your suggestion for wave two makes sense as it completes all the main characters bar the two exclusives.

If Hudson and Vazquez are exclusives, I'd imagine Ferro could either be an exclusive packed with Bishop as the regular would be with Gorman or be packed with a dropship vehicle, should one be made of course as that makes sense.

I'm a stickler for accuracy unfortunately lol. If a motion tracker or two was included in wave two that would be great, same for a couple of extra flamethrowers. Be interesting to see what unfolds.

Hicks never used it, I'd imagine most people buying these are fans of the film. I said in an earlier post there were a few small things that could do with some clarification. Apone's USCM patch mispealt USMC, pulse rifles given to flamethrower armed marines/lack of flamethrowers for whatever reason (even though Frost comes with an flamethrower), lack of motion trackers and sentry guns. Be good to have an answer or two.

Towards the end of the film when he is the only colonial marine left, he is command then lol. Should really have said after Gorman was incapacitated in the apc, when he came to he deferred to Hicks as he had more combat mission experience. I've checked my set and the pulse rifles are all painted. Might be an oversight on someones part.

I'm referring to the film, Dietrich, Frost and Wierzbowski were armed with flamethrowers, for whatever reason only Frost will come with one. I wonder if motion trackers and sentry guns will also be included at some point to ?.
