I really only need a Starship Trooper style helmet, but a whole kit wouldn't be bad.

Nope, that's USCM gear from the Alien films. He's talking about UCF Mobile Infantry.



It's not perfect, but the Jungle Duke torso will certainly work. Web gear shouldn't be a problem either.

I'm right there with you. I enjoyed the 1st and the 3rd. 2nd was terrible. I wacth the first probably every 3 months or so. I just like the style the movies are done in. one giant infomercial.

The helmet Spoon has in that set would work for it as well, with a little modding.

That's actually pretty cool.

Getting a line of fully articulated 1:18 Star Ship Troopers toys would be so awesome. Characters, Troopers, Aliens, Vehicles, the whole shabang.

I like that movie. Shouldn't, but I do.

Yes you should, cuz it's aaaaawesooome

I think the Galoob Arachnid and Flyer will work with Joes. If you felt like it a repaint would be good, and if you're really ballsy you could add balljoints.

I'm pretty sure SDS had a helmet and maybe an upper torso of an ST, but with his store change, it's anyone's guess where or win we will see it again.

Like I said, for now, I think that helmet from Spoons set could work in a pinch.

As it is, when I have some extra cash...I'm grabbing a couple of those sets from him.

I disagree. It's pretty far off. The amount of modding it would need is the same amount a regular GI Joe helmet would need, and I have 2 or 3 of those already.

Well, it wouldn't be that bad of an idea...seeing how they used leftover Aliens Colonial Marine gear for Mobile Infantry get up in the movie.

I read it somewhere, but can't seem to find it now. So in this day and age, that means I'm making it up, obviously.

Your not losing it Dre.


I know firefly used the SST stuff, Alien Ressurection and SST used the same props including a few helmets (guy who gets shot in head by richochet is wearing a Starship troopers helmet)as did Planet of the Apes remake. Its just not the marines who wore it in Alien R

I was aware that the Starship Troopers equipment had been reused, but have never seen or heard that Starship Troopers reused equipment from Aliens.

SDS had both a torso and helmet. Not sure if it will be leased though, and if it is, where it will end up.
