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!

I must admit this is the most shady, weird, dishonorable and unpleasant marketing campaign ever.

Limited edition? Hah.
UK/US/CA only? Hah.

Time to think twice on their next "crowd funding" project....


Yes this will burn Hasbro longer term. And their complaint department and legal department is going to be rather busy as a result of this.

Did you get any updates on delivery after being told it was despatched? I was told last Thursday I'd get updates, but so far none have arrived and the tracking number I was given suggests that Yodel don't have my rifles yet.

I got a message to say it had been despatched and it arrived within a day or two and I was working crazy hours so had no chance to check tracking…

Mine arrived today. Update from Yodel first thing saying it was on its way and it turned up a couple of hours ago. Tracking info did look like it hadn't been received by Yodel as well but i think that did update over the weekend to say it would be here on Monday.

Over a month later and still none. Hasbro sucks.

Thanks!

I picked up 2 at GameStop last week so I cancelled my Hasbro preorders. I could have waited but was pissed off by another pre-order, Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed Collector's Edition, being delayed by a month. I have no faith in Hasbro. Now watch Hasbro give something for people who stuck with the orders. That would be my luck. Repaint this weekend.

Thanks!

Greg

Hasbro just billed me for the pre-orders from a year ago. Seems like it might actually be happening finally. Better late than never I guess.

The two I pre-ordered direct from Hasbro a year ago ended up arriving before the one I ordered from my local GameStop shop a few months back.

Are these easy to break down and reassemble? I'm tempted to get one to repaint. It's too much hassle getting even a airsoft PR these days.

I’ll have to check the size, but I might be able to print those mag bottoms if you guys are interested.
