Yeah,but easten front is too dangerous.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

Hah!!

 

[Keenan]

Looking forward to army building these. (And I'd love to see pics of those ALIENS too at some point.)

 

[The Ewokhunter]

These are beautiful figures. Especially since there is no competition.

 

[Falcon C]

totally amazing !

 

[Monkeywrench]

Incredible!

 

[Falcone]

I never thought I would see the day of Joe articulated WW2 Germans. It makes doing Red Shadow customs much easier.

 

[lancelot]

Pretty much my reaction.

how'd you miss those, Drop?

For the Alien experts, is the xeno on the far left a canonical (likely a comic) breed or did they borrow those...."cheek blades" from one of the Kenner designs?

 

[Dropshipbob]

I hAD NOT SEEN THOSE PHOTOS!!! So who is making these?

I don't really care for any of those specific xeno designs, but if they are in 1:18th and have good sculpting and articulation, I might pick them up...if they don't cost a ton of money.

Now, if they make ALIENS specific designs with the above and don't cost $20 each, I WILL pick them up.
Was there any info on weather or not they would be making figures of the humans from the movie/s?

I believe that design is from the recent computer game Aliens: Colonial Marines.

The same company Melvin has been promoting the OURWAR Germans and Russians I think. They were shown at the China Toy Show. No other info has been said except the early pics and a Feb release date listed on the cards.

Ah, the one everyone hated.

I believe that somewhere Melvin stated they weren't working on humans for the Aliens figures, jut the Aliens. Hope that will change though....

Awesome stuff Melvin, as always. What's with the Aliens figures though? Is that a new license, and will it expand to humans, or just Alien characters?

Hi,first we will make for the aliens,we have no plan to make humans in the movie currently but we will consider it,thanks!

 

[Dropshipbob]

That's awesome, thanks birddog!

Indeed! I will want a few of those soldiers with long sleeves for this very reason!
Maybe we could get Melvin to make us some in red?
