Random thoughts:

1. Man, NECA just can't nail that Sigourney Weaver likeness, can they? Plus it looks like Ripley is wearing an adult diaper.

2. I love "battle damaged" Bishop, and it's cool that they're making up for the fact that they're only selling you half a figure by including an egg/facehugger combo. Bishop better be coming with some milk like in NECA's pics, however!

3. Weren't these black and red aliens already released?

These look awesome. I'm curious how good Ripley will look like in person, or if I'll even see her in the wild. I haven't jumped on board this toy line though, and probably never will.

As a two-pack yes, but now each one will be an individual figure so you can get one without the other or both if you missed the pack the first time.

I might get 2, make it a full dozen. As great a character as Ripley is I never really imagined wanting to have a toy of her, I prefer the monsters over the people.

That curly hair is really hard to capture. I think Ripley is gonna be one of those figures, where you need to have the head positioned a certain way before you go "oh, there's the likeness".
But I'm getting that Bishop. I've been wanting the ripped in half, macaroni and cheese, Bishop since Neca announced this line

Well for me, I have no interest in that version of Ripley. I want the one from Alien.

Totally need just a easter basket full of those eggs. Any guess if we will see Ripley in her Bomber Jacket?? All they need to do is sculpt some arms and put a rubber body piece on the chest.

I really like that Ripley figure and this is definitely the version that I would want with the flamethrower and all. Apparently her likeness is hard to pin down, but I think they did a good job on her. I hope Ripley and the egg sacks aren't as hard to find as some of the other Neca Alien and Predator figures are in my area.

GREAT SHOTS! LOVE THE PHOTOS - especially the comparison ones.

Lance Henriksen is the nicest actor. I saw him filming in Vancouver a few years ago. I ordered one of the Bishop figures, and it's a decent likeness. The rest have to wait for now...

Hi! I'm new here and I was just wondering if the new genocide warriors feel more durable than the previous warriors? I have had problems with the series 2 warriors in the past and i'm hoping this feels more durable like the dog alien.

Welcome aboard! I didn't have any issues with them. I never picked up the previous 2-pack, so I can't compare. But the joints were tight and never felt like they were going to break.

Thanks. Was fun to shoot. Took a solid 6+ hours from shooting to processing/cropping to posting.

...love the quality and creativity of your photos. Ripley looks better here than in NECA's official pics xD I have her pre-ordered, so I'm counting the days until I can have her on my hands, though what I'm really hoping to get is her Alien³ and Alien Resurrection figures. Might get a hold of the black Xeno also. Aside from Ripley and the Xenos stuff I see no need for the other figures though. I'd hate to get incomplete set of characters. We won't get a pre-Facehugger Kane, Ash, most of the marines and none of the third and fourth human character sadly.
