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 have been contacted by Sega's PR company about Marines and Xenos to do various promo events. I worked with this company for AvP:2010 and they kept all their promises and were great fun to work with. However, as usual, the events are at quite short notice and the dates aren't 100% firm yet.

All these will be in London; it is the centre of the universe for PR.

I cannot make the publicity events, but might be able to do the filming - Abe is a jammy bastard and another company want his time over that week.

Outline is as follows - dates are approximate:

  • "In the next two weeks" - Viral film shoot; Alien needed only. I might be able to make this one if my dayjob agrees.
  • 11/02/13 - Publicity at a London landmark requiring Alien(s) and Marines
  • 11/02/13 - 15/01/13 - Visiting Newspaper/TV/Radio offices/studios to distribute freebies and make appearances


These would be done with full expenses. Let me know if you want to take part and I will try and coordinate and get firmer plans.

Meee! I've already been speaking to Scapey about the Filming next week and agreed to it, we've just got to sort out the train were meeting on and the PR event-Also no problem, any appointment's i have during that time period I can work around and re-arange, If expenses are paid for then I'm all in for this!
Like my usual travel situation's the stuff over the 8th-15th I'd prefer it if i could meet someone on the train, *pokes at the hadrian's wall crewe* to travel with.

If full expenses include paying for a hotel/B&B in London (also travel from France, although I can handle that I think - but it's worth a try!) then I'm in, for the 11th at least and however long they'd let me stay..

Otherwise, I don't think I can afford the trip as is...

Will find out tomorrow if I can do the 11th.

12-15th am free, but Is this for the whole 4 days , or a date inbetween those dates?

I have forwarded the following to the PR firm (with added real-names)

scouse trooper (Marine) 11th-15th Feb
MattB (Marine) 11th-15th Feb
nocternus (Marine) 13th-14th Feb
Scapey (Smartgunner/Marine) 11th-15th Feb (Requires notice)
Rex_equinox (Alien) 11th-15th Feb (Requires notice)
Luinsar (Marine) 11th-15th Feb


I know this is not great for some (and unfair) but they have asked for people's location and I have told them.


I have asked them to name who they would like to get involved, with more detailed dates if possible. I will let you know ASAP if you are required.

Current status is that they have asked for mattb and scouse trooper to get involved with an event on 11th Feb. Guys: I'll send you a PM shortly.

It is likely that more dates will open up, and more people will be required. Please keep this thread up to date with your availability.

Cool. I hope they realise that if they want a Frenchy, they'd better give me a reasonable amount of warning. :P

Not that I expect them to WANT a Frenchy!

The PR firm for the official have asked me if I could relay this message....


A gigantic Alien egg (around 6m tall) will be mysteriously appearing on Lawn 3 of London’s Potters Field Park on Monday 11th February to celebrate the launch of SEGA’s Aliens: Colonial Marines.

The eerie and entrancing structure will be looming over the mayor’s office and Tower Bridge, completely open to the public as it is guarded by Colonial Marines who will also be on the look out for a stray Xenomorph that is said to have broken free in the area.

Colonial Marines and the stray Xenomorph are available for photography, along with the egg, from 10am – 4pm.


Guys, if anyone is in the area please come see us, am going to post this too on the FB uscm
