I don't know, maybe there is something I'm not seeing here, but I just feel like with all the new modern innovations in toys (hell look at Hot toys, they're like little people) I just can't get myself into throwing money at something that's purely a nostalgia grab.
I only grabbed the Alien out of love for the franchise and because that toy was made in '79 but never released til now. Honestly you can never use Hot Toys as your go to comparison unless it's in the same price range. I feel like NECA or Hasbro's various detailed figure lines are a better comparison against Reaction. I hope the people that do get these like them, because they aren't selling for shit in my area so I can't say for sure how long these will stick around.
