Saw the Warrior Alien bust at a local store, and it actually looked pretty good for the price ($24.99). The coin slot is pretty well hidden, and probably easily sealed up if you just like the bust. Might pick up both the bust and Alien egg when it comes out.

That's far cheaper than I would have expected. I think I might have to pick up one of those. Not too fussed with the egg though - looks too freaky.  :P

It's a good time to be a collector! All sorts of crazy awesome things coming out!

Too bad I don't have enough room to display it, the Warrior head looks really decent for the price !
My 4-Y-O daughter likes daddy's little Alien figures already, but I don't think an Alien coin bank would be a proper gift for a little girl  ;D.

Buy a bigger house, problem solved!

Very cheap but the quality is pretty good. I still plan on getting the Egg and maybe the Big Chap.

Corporal Hicks

They sure are really pretty. I nearly picked one up on Saturday. It's the second time I've passed on it and I regret it still.

I own the Egg and Warrior and hope to have the rest. For the price, they really can't be beat! They really bare no resemblance to a bank and that's the trick really.

Mr. Domino

I own the egg and warrior, and will be getting the Big Chap, but I've skipped out on the rest. The queen just doesn't quite look right to my eyes, and the preds were all fine enough, but the paint apps on them were a little disappointing to me. Plus, space ends up being limited.

Darkness

There's a review of the Queen bank here: http://news.toyark.com/2016/04/07/diamond-select-toys-alien-queen-bust-bank-toyark-photo-shoot-201167 They seem to have a problem with the size but it looks pretty big to me.

Corporal Hicks

It's a reasonable size. It'd be massive if it were in scale with the Warrior! Personally I'm looking forward to that Big Chap most. Just need to actually pick one up!

THE CITY HUNTER

Now that would be a cool money bank!

FiorinaFury161

We need an egg bank.

Obviously for your nest egg. :P :P :P :P

LordCassusSnow

There is an egg bank lol Theres one sitting on my shelf right now. Think i'll pass on these. Hopefully we'll see something like an Urn or Giger's original Necronomicon beast.
