First off the quality of the figure's build is great, no stuck joints, nothing loose, it all moves well and the new articulation does improve the elbow range. I do still think the dome should be a little more clear on the front so the skull underneath can be more easily seen but that doesn't make this figure's darker front automatically a bad thing because it does still look good. In general paint on this figure is all looking good, especially those shiny teeth. The main new feature of this ultimate update is the '79 accurate egg, facehugger, and chestburster. I really like getting this new egg but with its large root-like base it actually takes up more space than I might be willing to give it in my display. The facehugger and chestburster are well sculpted and painted but they're not big improvements over the Aliens versions since they're still the same size so they have the same level of restrictions in what they can do.

I just saw him today at Target, but now that I'm out of job for a couple of weeks (if not months), I can't just impulse buy stuff, so I need to keep my money and only buy the stuff I either already budgeted for (though that may be getting reduced) or preorders I have nearly paid off.
