Excellent gallery as always. It feels like this ultimate version has been in the works for a long time.
My biggest concern is quality control. I still don't have on original 1979 alien in my collection, so I'm really counting on this release to finally fill that gap in my collection. I've had to make due with the isolation version as a stand in. From what I have seen and experienced, neca has not had a good track record when it comes to xenos and QC. I never did pick up any of the ultimate Aliens version because every one I saw at Target looked really sloppy, warped, and even broken in the box.
With this release, my specific concerns are the paintjob and especially the attachment of the dome. I've seen way too many instances of previous domes being crooked, misshapen, or ruined by excess glue smeared all over them. I really, really hope I can find a good sample of this guy when he drops.
Now for the positives, the improved articulation is nice to see. The new egg and facehugger look fantastic, It's about time we got the original designs. The paintjob of the skull under the dome look improved, I agree that the front of the dome does look a little too dark, perhaps that will vary. Sometimes these early samples from Neca are different from what we see in stores. We saw that with the H2 Myers last year.
