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 thought Master Replicas were going to sell that (or one like it), but can't find any mention on their site.

I don't think much of the screws/rivets visible at the front of the 'feet' of the loader. :|

Has to be 1:6 Hot Toys for me, although I'd prefer it in metal. :)

Scapey has first refusal, but if he doesn't want it I'll send you a private message. :)

I already have one, thanks!
Built and painted... And likely being sold to help fund the BIG ONE!

Anyone else interested in that?
Or an unbuilt dropship, still in the box?

Very nice.

Though I`m surprised Aoshima haven`t done the Powerloader at 1/72 too,to go with the Dropship & APC they already have done.
Hell boxes of Marines,Bugs & WY colonists wouldn`t go amiss either ;)
Though with that they can be customized using the ever popular 1/72 soldier brands already available.

Make that 5 versions. :)

-Halcyon model (reproduced two other times using the same molds by Tsukuda and Aeoshima)
-Forbidden Zone model
-the aforementioned RPF project
-the HT 1:6th version
-and the Aeoshima version

For anyone keeping score.

And I had no idea the Aeoshima loader was in scale with the Tsukuda Queen, might have to get it just so I can finally have the two together.

Too bad they won't ship to the U.S., I'd be all over that in a second.
