Agreed. We have Galactus minimates and no The Watcher?! Thanks for all this insight Barry. I thought I knew about a lot of the behind the scenes stuff, but I was wrong.

Very cool!!

I don't really have a favorite Thing, but that Trench Coat version is great.

The Yoga Hosers must have at least partially gone into production because I have parts that look production made. I got them from China.

Wave 28. I appreciate the design looking straight out of a comic. Simple but detailed.

Hey Josh, if we will let TBT back in here, we will likely let anyone in. I do still try to keep the spammers out.

I couldn't agree more. I wouldn't be surprised if they were each spun off a bit from the full Alien premise, or made solid franchise characters at least.

That Stark camo is genius!

I 100% understand and agree with your points CylonChaney. I am the IT guy working in a facility that houses these things (biohazards, not aliens). Biocontainment at the highest levels would and should laugh at what we see in Aliens. I suppose I can excuse it because in the USA, our Federal Government (and society generally) demand and oversee the security measures. This facility in AE is private, maybe even its own country/government and I wonder, is there any body that tells them what security to have (or else)? Yes, only an arrogant leader would build technological wonders worth trillions of dollars and the send them into harm and leave them unaccounted for.

Same here. You would think the first thing Ad Populum would do is align their media to start generating revenue or at the very least, put that media up for sale or license. Its hard to know what is really happening here.

Fingers crossed!

I had not watched "The Fly" until last night. I couldn't watch it on release because I was at an event, but I see where you are coming from now. Also, the security measures got even worse. I work for an institution that houses actual living biohazardous specimens. I get that security measures in the show are laughable, but I am not sure that the majority of viewers would see it the way I do. Not that the opinions about the lax security are invalid, but I can still enjoy it knowing its bad.

I feel like Kirsh (Timothy Olyphant) has his own agenda and nothing to fear from the creatures (any of them). His boss treats him like crap, so why not go off the reservation and do what he wants. I like the series. For a TV show, I think it packs a decent storyline, but I do make fun of the Grand Canyon sized holes in their security procedures, much to my wifes dismay. Its Aliens and I will take all I can get.

The Minimate format is an asset that I assume Ad Populum took over in the buy out. Who knows where it could end up or we may neve see it again.

Its not cheap anymore.
