No word on price yet.

[El Diablo]

I've never purchased any of NECA's foam replicas. Does anyone know how long this material lasts?

[skull-splitter]

Foam, so a no go for me.

[Darkness]

Predator version probably looks better but yeah foam unfortunately. I read it'll be about $300 each.

They look bad, like toys blown up to actual size.

[The Old One]

This perfectly showcases everything I think is wrong with NECA's big chap sculpt, no elegance.

[426Buddy]

I think they look great

Too bad they are foam and overpriced.

They look bad, like toys blown up to actual size.

Except their toy sculpts are more accurate generally.

NECA is restocking the Alien trophy. I'm trying to talk myself into ordering one...

Does anyone have one of these from the original run? I'm curious how it's held up, or if they're prone to rotting.

[Corporal Hicks]

I'd be curious to know if anyone here has one too. I always see these and think about trying to hunt them down. But with all the talk of Hot Toy's rotting recently, I'm worried about how well these would hold up considering their hefty cost.

Not great, probably better off with the Prime 1 offerings.
