Q). What’s big, green, scary lookin’ and arrived today?
A). Super7’s latest 18 inch tall iteration of their 1986 ALIENS Kenner tribute figure landed on my doorstep today. I have mixed feelings about this item’s arrival…
Firstly, let’s just say it looks awesome! Thank you Super7 for this fantastic item. Sadly, it has suffered during transit and the box has been crushed and a little torn despite being well packed inside a sturdy mailer box. The damage is visible on the lower left front corner and lower left side of the box in the image above. Gah! The hazards of international postage. A bit disappointed about that. *sigh* Oh, well. I’m going to open it anyway but goods shouldn’t arrive in this condition.
Anyway, no matter. Now that I am in possession of one of these things it will receive a lot of attention. Here is my immediate list:
- There will be a written review appearing on this site sometime later this week. (Done – you can read it here.)
- I will be completing this item’s entry on the Kenner ALIEN family page. (Done.)
- I will also be updating and completing the gallery images and product details on the already extant Acid Green ALIENS Warrior information page. (Also done.)
That short list will do for a start. I’m looking forward to getting up close and personal with this item and getting all familiar with the transparent figure. I am particularly interested in seeing how the jaw activation system works.
Keep an eye out for these updates.
