You are correct, sir. Ian Holm was the shortest member of the cast by far, as evidenced by this cast pic:


BTW, is Ash's face painted, as opposed to being cast in flesh-tone plastic? If so that's a bummer, because it contrasts the Parker, Brett, and Ripley figures.

The Pressure suits are all a bit large- but overall I think they did a decent job scaling everyone

I haven't been a fan of NECA's pressure suits at all due to the tons of inaccuracies. They're too lanky/not bulky enough, and the armor pieces are WAAAY too small. I mean, look how tiny the shoulder pads are on NECA's figure (they're shaped wrong, too) compared to the movie pic below...in the movie, the shoulder pads are enormous and go almost all the way down to the elbow. The chest plate is too small, too. The suit underneath also doesn't look right...it needs to be bulkier, as it looks too form-fitting on NECA's figure, the gloves are too small, the helmet sits way too high...I could go on and on. Oh, and let's not forget that fact that the elbows bend, what? 10 degrees at best? Not a great figure, unfortunately.
