Zexion_Armando Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I might just go with that Dana hair, cause its nice and at least matches better than the Sunspot hair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerdyTrev Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I'd like that head too for Apone. He needs a cigar as well. I knew you would! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dio Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 While we're nitpicking hair, she tied it back into a ponytail at the end of Alien. When DST gets around to the "Jonesy Rescue" variant, we'll need to insist on that. Is there a black version of Lieutenant Boomer's hair?

Roccothegreat Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 (edited) painted black her hair might make for a good ripely from the beginning of the movie. Edited October 15, 2014 by Roccothegreat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Yeah, that's probably the best available piece, Rocco. Don't think it's ever been reused, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'm really looking forward to seeing how this gets translated into a Minimate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 I hate that movie with a fiery passion, but even I have to admit that's a pretty great design. I'm really looking forward to that NECA figure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 Everything after Aliens was a hypersleep nightmare, as far as I'm concerned. Killing off Newt was unforgivable. Understandable but just wrong, in terms of story. But I agree, cool creature and character designs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glantern Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) DST posted a pick of Drake on their FB, along with a comment "Drake is in #Aliens #Minimates 2-packs Series 1! Coming in 2015!" Is this the first time he was confirmed for Series 1? Edited November 18, 2014 by Glantern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 I'm just tickled to see a Minimate holding a gun with two hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterious Stranger Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I think Drake was in the display at NYCC but don't quote me on that. I know Frost (with the flames), Ripley, Newt and the flaming Alien were shown and I really want to say Drake was shown as well. Regardless, this is cool news because it means his unique chest cap can be used for Vasquez as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Yeah, Drake was previously displayed somewhere. Looks awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, this is cool news because it means his unique chest cap can be used for Vasquez as well. I don't know if he was at NYCC, but he was at C2E2 back in April! Note alternate hairpiece: And was there ever a question whether we would make Vasquez? I thought I'd confirmed it long ago, and that us making Wierzbowsky pretty much sealed the deal.

Mysterious Stranger Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 BBTS has the 2-packs up for preorder. Wounded Hicks / Ripley Pvt Drake / Battle Damaged Attacking Alien Sgt Apone / Alien Cpl Dietrich / Infected Colonist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) It says wounded Hicks, but he looks pretty spry in the picture. I wonder if we're getting Hicks variants, or what. Edited November 19, 2014 by karamazov80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterious Stranger Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) I would imagine there's an alternate bandaged head for Hicks. Maybe a bandaged arm piece like the one that comes with the Walking Dead one-arm Rick Grimes. But I would put good money on an alt head for sure.

karamazov80 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Yeah BHM, great idea! I would buy one, as well. I would imagine there's an alternate bandaged head for Hicks. Maybe a bandaged arm piece like the one that comes with the Walking Dead one-arm Rick Grimes. But I would put good money on an alt head for sure.I would assume the same if we're only getting one Hicks, but it would seem odd to identify him as "wounded Hicks" unless there is a variant of some kind.
