Thanks, the box takes up a hell of a lot of space, don't it?
New pipe work in the loft has forced me to have a really good sort out to take up less space, so some items like this one, are being removed & thier packaging going into the recycle bin.

Oh no, the local council provides them for free :-D

The play set was a reasonable £25, but that was around 6 or 7 years ago when I got it..goes nicely with Corporal Hicks as well...

..who normally resides in this rather handsome display case, which lights up..if I could be bothered putting some new batteries in it.

That's so cool T-shot! That's got to be one of the most disturbing scenes of the movie too when that alien bursts out of her chest....... grim.

Do you have any of the 3 3/4" Aliens figures by Hot Toys a few years back? Not the sh*t ones, these ones:

Cheers Shaun, the figure has a lever @ the back so you can make the chest buster wriggle around :-D

Yeah, I manages to find the 4 humans, but not interested in the Aliens themselves..I do have a couple of the Konami candy (or one coin?) models too.
Is that photo one of yours? it certainly look the business.

A lever on the back that makes the chest buster pop out! That makes it even better!!! What scale is it do you reckon? If it's 1:18 I'm driving round to your house now to rob you ;)

Yes, that's one of my Aliens figures. Sadly Drake's eyepiece was missing so he's not complete. Great sculpts aren't they!?!

Shaun, these are larger scale 6-7 inches (tho if the missus asks its 8 or 9 ;-) :-D ). i have a few of the figs from this range, will have to get some pics taken.

they're mcfarlane toys although he brought out a few smaller scale figs i think when the AVP movie was released. i have a couple but they're more like statues than toys tho. excellent detail and they look really cool. i've been after the queen from this range for ages but everytime i've come across 1 its too dear or i've been broke.

really like the alien fig and wouldnt mind pickin up a few but i've never seen them before, are they expensive? workin at the mo and cant check the bay
