The black card back versions should be widely available.

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.

That's exactly what I did after opening my set! I love them so much I want to create their own special display with the Early Bird box, the stands, the booklet and the protos. Those are all selling for so much it'll take me a while to complete the display, but anticipation is half the fun of collecting, right? :mrgreen:

Mine is exactly the same, the arm is almost loose enough to spin if I blow on it. In a weird way it makes it almost more authentic feeling since I had several Star Wars figures with the exact same problem when I was a kid.

This set has made me so happy overall. I buy a lot of different toys from cheap blind bagged Lego figures to Soul of Chogokin and other 'high end' toys and everything in between. For some reason this set has thrilled me more than anything else to come out in 2013. There's magic to it for sure. I'll buy any Alien figures they decide to make, from any of the films including Prometheus. A retro power loader would probably make me black out.

I will have to check in on those arms, mine appear to be rock solid.

Thanks a ton for everyone's support on this line, we really appreciate it!

I've been listening to the Dismal Jesters podcast featuring Jim Sterling from the Jimquisition video game news show lately. Well Jim collects Alien toys and gives the ReAction set a good mention.

EDIT: Not Safe for Work on that podcast!

What's this flood of ReAction figures over at Entertainment Earth?? Is it more of a Funko thing than a Super7 thing now??

These do not look like something Kenner would have produced in the 70s or 80s. They look like characters from the Clerks cartoon. I was hoping to get a Predator to face off against my Alien, but this one has the proportions of a Bruce Timm Batman design.

Post Re: SUPER7's ALIEN ReAction Figures!
I'm not really feeling them if they are in fact real.. So many lines in one release?? It's like saving up your cum for a whole week to release an over the top milkshake jug filling load. Nightmare Before Christmas has had way too many toy releases already so I don't know why they are a part of this ReAction series for toy lines that never saw the light of day.

I'm guessing Funko has more to do with this than Super7 does.. Could be part of the deal for distributing the Alien figures??

Kind of curious so see the Goonies. Nothing looks good so far. I noticed the price went down to $9.99. Got this feeling the Funko quality will really shine on this new batch.

To be fair, the sell-out doesn't always backfire...

Yeesh. At least these all serve to highlight how excellent the Alien toys are.

With the right pacing, marketing and QC every one of those ranges could've been cool.

The fact that someone had a 'stack 'em high, sell 'em cheap' brainfart has effectively killed any credibility and integrity the line had mustered with the initial Alien release!

That said, there's probably a way bigger market for that price point and quality!
