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!

Seems like HCG (Hollywood Collectables Group) is about the only guys doing anything marine related in the Aliens franchise. The other day they announced a 1/4 scale Hicks statue.

It is nice. It is not without faults (the biggest of which is the HUGE ab pad & ab/crotch armor and knife that is way too long), but I think it is pretty damn cool.
There have been 1/4 scale warriors and Ripleys before, but this is the first 1/4 scale marine.

Looks like the only difference between the numbered 150 'exclusive' and the 500 main issue is a name plate. Meh.

Overall not too shabby.

I have to say though that it seems to be a really good likeness of Michael Biehn, and it's huge too!

I wonder if they're plannig on realeasing more marines!

The shotgun scabbard is a bit oversized as well.

I haven't purchased from HCG before. Are the final products pretty close to the prototype pictures? With a payment plan at $60 a month, I don't really see an excuse to not get it. Though, I do wish Hot Toys would revisit the Marines.
