 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures! Preorder NOW!
Are you going to have single alien figures for preorder?

Got some glasses, they are pretty cool looking.

 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
I don't get it... the Alien is going to be black or grey (as seen on some legit eshops)?!?! A grey Alien? Why?  Is this just some old prototype artwork?

 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
poorly color corrected photo (probably to help show the sculpt details). The alien is black.

 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
Just admit it is a chase version so people can go nuts.

 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
As in, you were the winning bidder on that guy Brian, or you have another one of these mock-ups? Either way, nice one. Just love to see these prototypes and get to hear the stories and history behind them and the folks who made them. One of my favourite things from the SW universe.
Hard to verify with this type of auction, as it is listed as being from an 'estate sale' but when there is 'provenance' and you can really track the pieces and their origins, I am just fascinated by them. Pity the legs on this guy went missing at some point, but even as is, a very nice thing to pop up for sale (especially if able to authenticate it).

 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
Brian, you own this specific one? What's interesting about it, based on my conversations with the seller and the detailed pics he took later, is that it does not appear to be a hardcopy (urethane from silicon molds, made at Kenner). Instead it seems like a first shot from actual production tooling (which would have been steel molds in Asia). What do you know about it?

 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
I'm getting a 31,25$ fee for shipping to Canada. Wasn't it advertised to be 25$ flat everywhere outside the US for pre orders ?

 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
Roger, we bought this specific one. The chest is definitely from steel tooling, while the arms are not. Nefstah, please follow up directly with josh@super7store.com on your shipping so we can sort it out for you. Thanks.

Thanks, Brian, interesting that Kenner got so far along with producing these before they were canceled.

 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
I received my pre-order set today. Pure awesomeness! Was the Ripley figure supposed to be on a Dallas card, or did I get some uber rare version? Either way I enojoy this set immensely. I cant wait to see the next ReAction set.

 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
Got mine today: Big Chap by rogerharkavy, on Flickr No spoilers, the chase figure is cool. I think folks will be happy with it. I am waiting to take Kane off of the card, I want to savor this Christmas feeling a bit...

 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
Anyone know if other retailers will be getting these, specifically stores on the east coast?

 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
I got mine yesterday! I won't post anything for fear of spoiling it even with a spoiler tag. I may have to buy a few extra because I can't bring myself to take these off the cards!

 Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
I opened Kane. The sculpt is fantastic, lots of little details to stare at. On the down side, the left arm is completely loose, but this would only be a problem if he had an accessory to hold.
I'm curious to see what the future lines are going to be like. The bar has been set with the authenticity of these figures, but there were the dead Kenner figures to work from as a base. Hopefully the designers will be able to continue that spirit.
