MisterPL Posted January 11, 2018 Author Share Posted January 11, 2018 Well, shit. Now I have to find a TRU that will stock these. I'm glad I have a spare spacesuit for Amanda Ripley, just in case DST doesn't offer one down the road. No dog alien is only slightly disappointing. That just means it'll come with a future assortment. I don't suppose Dillon comes with extra parts to create another inmate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 I'll probably break down and buy one of the Xeno packs when I see them since at least the colors are different but the same old molds for the umpteenth time doesn't excite me much. I have no interest in any of the humans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Ellen Ripley from Resurrection either leads me to think we'll either get a specialty assortment with these OR a future TRU assortment with the dog Alien and Ripley. But I got Roc AND Clay Morrow in one assortment so I'm a happy camper. There's enough cool stuff here to warrant multiple purchases from me. Also the blue Alien looks to be translucent. Another plus in my book. Edited January 11, 2018 by Mysterious Stranger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Is the blue one supposed to be from when they are swimming? Hopefully we get a crawling/dog/swimming alien piece... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I would love a swimming piece. That's one of my favorite parts of the movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roccothegreat Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 the yellow amanda ripley space suit will look so cool, i would get an extra dirty it up and just do some crazy exploring shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedTiger95 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 The blue Xenomorph appears to be translucent in the package versus the promo pic. A very interesting wave, didn't expect getting Alien Isolation minimates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooNiche Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 (edited) Sweet! Been waiting for an Alien Minimate fix! I'm hoping the choice shown here does mean we can expect more from other sources/retailers. The missing obvious ones being Ripley 8 and the Newborn, from Resurrection. And the Dog Alien for Alien 3. A few Working Joe androids from Isolation would be sweet too, but I'm pleased with enough with Amanda. In terms of the Aliens in this wave, I do wish the Res' Warrior wasn't so Kenner red, the Isolation Alien's colour scheme looks more appropriate to my eye. I've seen statues depicting the Res' Warrior looking very red, but it always struck me as more of a subtle brown tint, if anything. I have no idea what the "Advanced" alien is supposed to be, but I'm aware of the need to make the sets appealing to the wider market, so I chalk it up to that. I'll still get it for Johner. Hoping we see even more at Toyfair! Edited January 14, 2018 by TooNiche Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedTiger95 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I'm assuming the Advanced Xenomorph is based on a Kenner design. Neca released a figure with this exact look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced and Resurrection are definitely Kenner-inspired. Not looking to do any subtle tinting of existing colors (Isolation motwithstanding) because it would be a missed opportunity to do something distinctively different. New tooling was not possible this rotund, but we'll see what the future holds. Edited January 14, 2018 by DSTZach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloDelorean Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I've never seen these movies or played Isolation, but the Ron Perlman/blue Xenomorph pack looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll always buy a set that includes a movie/canon accurate figure though, so I'll still be buying all these sets. It's been a fantastic line so far!
