Since companys have made Halo, Street fighter, MGS game figures do you think we would see any Colonial Marine action figures to help promote the game??

Maybe, but only if the game sells really well.

I want a Hudson character that actually looks like him. The old figures were half assed in my opinion :/ but then again they were made.....20 years ago hahaha

NECA is doing these later this year. We haven't seen any sculpts yet, but I believe at least one wave was confirmed back at Toy Fair.

I though 9th_Stew was asking about the colonial marines from the game itself, not from the movies  :P

Randy Faulk, the main guy at NECA, said they're starting w/ only the Colonial Marines from James Cameron's A L I E N S. 

Cpl. Dwayne Hicks & one other marine from the movie will be the first 2 in Series One of NECA Colonial Marines. 

NECA is also making 4 new Warrior Aliens from James Cameron's A L I E N S.  Clean, Damaged, blue highlights, & brown highlights.

Also, Sigourney Weaver is not included in the license.  She has never approved of a Ellen Ripley figure or collectible to date.  I believe the Mattel Dana/Zuul & Avatar character are the only 2 figures ever approved w/ Weaver likeness.

The 'Alien Resurrection' Ripley figure isn't a bad likeness.

I've always found it amusing that Sigourney was so tough to nail down on action figures, since she evidently had no problem with the collectible card game - it was Arnold who eventually sunk that project, but nowadays, he's come around to allowing all sorts of great figures to be made.

Interestingly her card for the Leading Edge boardgame is a black silhouette.  I wondered at the time if it was due to likeness issues (as Dark Horse said during the initial comic run that they didn't have rights to her likeness).

I remember that with the Dark Horse comics, that was why her face was conveniently hidden in smoke an whatnot whenever she showed up (until Book 3, but likenesses didn't matter in that series because no one looked like anyone anyway. :P )
