The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

 Post subject: Original armor pieces / Character ID ?

Trying to identify a few pieces of armor, and wondering if there is an answer to this one...

Below left is a set of Apone (upper) armor, with Hudson leg greaves, and replica knee covers.
Below right is the same upper armor, but with different leg and knee pieces.
Is it known to which character they belong, or if possibly replicas?

Messaged with Propstore, as both images are from there.
The first image is from The Apone / Hudson mixed set, which sold there, in both 2020 and again in 2022.

The second image is from an earlier photo set showing pieces in their collection (around 2012 to 2015).
That page is now off the site, and only found on Internet Archive.

They took a couple days, dug into their records, but couldn't find any info on the leg greaves or knees.
Neither what character they may belong, or if original or replica.

Good job doing your homework at least!

Yeah. A mystery.

Here it is on their FB page, back in 2012.
Screen used upper, unknown lower.

The helmets are also a bit of a mystery.
It had the above helmet (and greaves) as late as 2015.
Sold at auction, in 2020, without a helmet (and now Hudson greaves).
Sold again in 2022, w/ a different helmet, and same Hudson shins.
*And replica knees, in both the latter.
