I found the Vasquez and Frost from TRU, saw about 5 of each, and they all have perfect eyes! NECA's eyes paints are often questionable, you have to look through to find non-derp ones, I'm glad this wave is so well done! I hope this is the way of the future.

Anyone has picture of how the smart gun's supposed to set up? I have a wire coming out of the waist support arm that I don't know where it goes.

Thanks.

How about a description? I can't be the only one that has a Vasquez, there's a long wire that comes out of the waist support arm, where does it go? I didn't find any picture from Google that shows that area.

I don't have Vaquez in hand yet. But here's two pics from our SDCC coverage.

I have Vasquez. She's awesome.

I've seen photos where if you cut off her armor & camo shirt, Vasquez has a half painted tanktop underneath. Do you think we'll be getting Vasquez variants in the near future?

Thanks Joe, that answers part of the question: Now I know the waist support arm's wire goes on top, but it still does not show where does the long wire that comes out of the waist support goes. All the pictures I find on Google always show the gun from the outside, never the inside with the waist assembly!

That would be cool! Perhaps a head without the eye piece and headset!

A two pack with her and Lt. Gorman as seen in the final battle/air vent. Lt. Gorman would come with two heads, one regular the other bandaged.

I would actually guess more likely another marine and alien warrior two pack. Both Hudson and Hicks got one where it was a slightly different version of the marines (just different expressions really for them) but the aliens were all battle damaged for action display set ups. I could see a two pack of Vasquez as seen in the medical station defense scenes with her pistol and pulse rifle and a new battle damaged alien. It would be in line with what they've done so far.

Its frustrating that there doesn't seem to be a place for that loose wire to plug into. Other people say to me it us supposed to plug into the gear on her chest but there is no port for it. Someone from the NECA Twitter says it just sorta tucks into the back of her belt which just feels lazy.
I noticed the prototype they showed off had a tear drop tattoo under her eye and I am not really upset that they omitted because I never notice it in the movie. In fact, the only time I have been able to point it out is when Pvt. Vasquez made the cover of Starlog magazine way back when.

There was a 'best we've done yet...' type reply from Randy the other day. I wouldn't be surprised if we got something seriously cool as a result.

Just tuck into the belt eh? Okay, I agree that seems lazy, but I'm glad I'm not the only one that has that question. Thank you!

Yeah, I don't miss the tear drop tattoo either...I actually never even noticed it's there, and I've watched Aliens MANY times!
