Like I said I totally get that and I agree. They somehow did not make that mistake with the Prowler and Burster with the face area. (Which can be fixed with some hot water, cold water, and water texture paint.) But better the face than the whole figure for me.

Also it does come out taller than all the humans and some of the Predators that I have.

It can also run on one arm and one leg with the others in the air it is so well balanced, good luck getting "the ultimate" doing anything similar.



If a Runner figure can not do this pose then I think it does not succeed as a depiction of the main trait of it honestly, that being the posture, and elegance in that particular way of moving rather uniquely from the other Aliens.

Personally, I generally have a problem with representations of the xenos in the figure area that are not film-accurate.
The industry has already come up with a lot of mutations.
there are only a few that are really good.
Strangely enough, things are completely different with Predator. There are a lot of free interpretations by sculptors that look much better than those in the film.

the dog alien, who also inspired the runners in the AVP games and Fireteam,
also has the ability to move on 2 legs. The runners actually only move on 4 legs.
The hind legs are correspondingly short while the original dog alien has quite long hind legs.
That's why I never really liked the runners because they scurry around like little rats in the games.
How cool would the original Dog Alien have been?
Most comics are pretty bad because the xenos often come across as far too massive and muscular.
This representation should remain with the predator.
a xenomorph must be wiry and slim.
The banana head must appear slightly oversized.
Mc Farlane's AR and AvP figures are pretty much the worst xeno figures I've ever seen.

5 Neca Dog Aliens not from Fire Team Elite, all on all fours and looking pretty bad ass imho. They weren't that difficult to pose, and this is a slippery linoleum floor at that...

They look like they're looking for a dropped coin though.

Hey has anyone else experienced hairline cracks on their Xenos translucent dome? My Alien Resurrection Warrior, AVP warrior, Ultimate Big Chap all have this issue. Two of them were still in the packaging as well. Also saw a Resurrection Warrior at target and it also had these cracks.

Honestly never noticed them on any of my figures, originals or bootlegs. There are sometimes gaps in the sides of the dome that don't go all the way down, but never noticed fractures. Strange.

P. S. I doubt it's gonna happen, but I'd love if they did a 1/4 scale Dog Alien, it would be a great base for a huge custom Crusher..... ;)

They need a good sculpt first of the film version before they do that.

I'm not sure where to post this haha..but I painted a Mega Construx Alien slime egg to a more realistic color. I hope you like it! Also any suggestions to improve it, I am all ears. Not sure if it needs more green or brown?

Looks great, maybe a more fleshy color at the top if I recall that's a weird pinkish color
