Can there be too much Alien stuff....I THINK NOT!  Just when you thought there couldn't be enough new Alien stuff... A new series of Alien Revoltech figures are on the way from Kaiyodo/Organic Hobby. These were announced at Wonderfest (Japan). All we have so far is a box art pic. Thanks go to plasmid303 for the heads up. I didn't know what Revoltech was, but here's his explanation: "For those who don't know what Revoltech is, they are a [big] series of non-scale action figures by Kaiyodo and Organic Hobby. They utilize neat little clicky "Revolver joints", so loose floppy joints are not a problem. They are around 5-7" each."Here's a link to coverage of Kaiyodo's Revoltech figures so you can get a feel for what these figures will be like: http://www.dannychoo.com/blog_entry/eng/1386/Kaiyodo/Here's the box art pic:  |

They forgot to put the dome on. I wonder if that was on purpose ... had there been a dome, it could've been mistaken for the avp or other kind of aliens -- the ribs imply the warrior, but the details of the skull are nice to show in profile -- I think they just didn't want to complicate a brief silhouette teaser with another detail for the dome - maybe just an at-a-glance visual to imply the o.g. alien -- that was my initial thought when I noticed the dome missing as well...then again, they could've simply forgot - after all, the graphic artis who created it isn't necessarily a fan of alien - |

Funny, isn't it, that both these guys and Medicom decided not to show their alien figures at the Tokyo show.

I wonder why that is... I was hoping I didn't miss any pics from the tokyo toy show this year |

Yeah, same here. That's a great sculpt. I hope it has all the poseability of the regular revoltech figs. |

 Thanks dude. But seriously, it's not just me. I get alot of help from all the other Alien/Pred fans out there, and sometimes I'm just in the right place at the right time. But, I do spend a HELLUVA lot of time on the ol' internet looking for this stuff.  |

Welcome to The Hive NecronomIV. I really think this is just a prototype sculpt and is not the finished fig. I'm sure the finished piece will have the high poseability of the regular Revoltechs and nicer paint job. |

I hope that's the case, I want something cool to put next to my Megatron and NECA Alien. I went ahead and linked the guys over at the toys board on 4chan to this thread so they could see your pics, hope you don't mind. |

Cool site, but I wish there was a fanart subforum. I made a sketch of Giger's Alien a while back on some Latin notes and want to see what everyone thinks of it. Regardless it's good to know I'm welcomed |

This looks fan-frigging-tastic!
Does anybody else get a bit of Medi-alien vibe here?

Yeah, there's some definate similarities between this and the Medicom Alien. The Revoltech Alien sculpt seems to be based on this artwork done for the 3 ft. Alien puzzle...   |
