    Awesome! I have the Hiya toys one sitting in my PoL. Hopefully these are easier to get a hold of in person.

    NECA needs to pace themselves. I want to see the Alien Nostromo suit figure done before this, but it isn't looking that way.

    You're probably going to see them all in about 2 weeks.

    Toy Fair. NECA always brings a ton of stuff they've been teasing to Toy Fair, plus lots of surprises. My guess is the entire Alien 35th Anniversary line will be shown.

    I dont know why NECA think its gonna achieved almost or same success as the predator line. Imo this will flop. I could not see whats cool about making these into figures. Prometheus characters design were better but it still flop.

    I respectfully disagree. These movies have a HUGE cult following, and unlike the Predator franchise, which has had a history of cool figures (like the 90's Kenner stuff, and the McFarlane stuff from about 10 years ago), the PotA franchise has hardly had any action figures at all. Off the top of my head, the only notable PotA figures I can think of were the old Megos. Because of the absence of quality figures, I predict that PotA fans are going to seriously support this line.
    Granted, these probably won't outsell the Predator line, but what does that matter? It's not as if the two are in direct competition. NECA is still going to make a nice profit off of these.
    Also, IMO, the Prometheus line flopped because the movie flopped.

    A much better look at Dr. Zaius has been added as well.

    @ Frank Richards thanks for the respect. Well lets see, Prometheus wasnt the best movie but it was ok. Imo if I was asked to choose wether to get an engineer or an ape I'll go for the engineer. Rise of the Pota was a good film but Im not sweating for the figures. Its like buying an animal or zoo toys. If it was a cyborg kingkong or ape it would have been a different story. But youre right this film is probably due to have theyre own line and fans could have been waitng for these for a long time enough to support the line. And who knows NECA could be right!

    As great as these figures look, I'm hesitant to buy into this line because I'm worried they won't (or can't) make Charlton Heston's Taylor as a figure. Do any insiders know if there might be likeness rights issues with his estate that would prevent NECA from being allowed to make a figure of him, similar to how Sigourney Weaver won't let them do a Ripley figure in their ALIEN lines? A classic Planet of the Apes line just won't feel complete without Taylor. His absence from wave 1 (despite being the star of the film) makes me wonder...

    Okay, so the above pic confirms that a 2nd wave is coming. But again I ask... is there any chance of getting a Taylor figure in this line, or will it be all apes? Has NECA indicated if there's any likeness rights issue with Charlton Heston's estate that would prevent them from doing a figure based on his character?

    Years ago when Sideshow was doing 1/6 scale Planet of the Apes figures, they were able to do Heston figures. So can NECA make one too?

    It all depends if they could afford the rights and if they could get retailers to buy into that. Sometimes the projected sales of the line don't justify the cost of acquiring specific license rights. Now, if the line is a smash hit with the first wave, it makes the decision to pay the likeness fees (if it hasn't been made), easier to make. I hope there's a Taylor figure, but I know that NECA can't always secure likeness rights at the start of a line.

  22. ShabbyBlue has no avatar! ShabbyBlue says

    Well in my opinion the line won't feel complete without at least one Taylor figure, so I'm reluctant to buy any of them if there's still doubt that they'll make one.

    At least we're finally getting Ripley in the Alien line.

    So the 2-pack comes with a "human catcher" accessory.

    Too bad there's semmingly no human characters in this line.
