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!

Just a topic to see if anyone is gearing up for Syd Nova. I am going to put on the greens for the first time ever this year on the Saturday and would love some company.

I've put the dates into the topic title.

It's a bit short notice for me, but I'd like to come over for convention one day in the future. Which one would be the best to aim for?

Thanks for fixing that up! I have to brag about Sydney Supanova being the best one. But that is because it is the biggest and I know the most people at that location. You have my tour guide abilities and a place to crash here if you do come over! Though compared to Dragon Con it is a pissy little trade show LOL. I think we get up to around 30 000 over the weekend? We have Sydney Comic Con this year for the first time and I will go to that so I will see which is better out of the two. EB Games Expo and PAX are good too but they are only about video games and not huge about cosplay/guests. I also love Gold Coast Supanova because of the party factor over the weekend due to the night life around the con. If you are planning to come over keep in touch and I can help you plan on where to go in the country and the must sees. I am sure all us Aussies would be happy to put you up while you are over here!

Here's hoping you figure out how to post a right-side-up photo of your pulse rifle, Marine. :delta:

The picture is right side up. It only looks upside down because of Australia being in the southern hemisphere. It's like how toilets spin the opposite way down under ;-)

It only looks upside down from your side of the planet. Posted this one upside down so you could view it up there.

Today was the first time I put on my gear in public and I had put on my belts wrong. Thankfully, I bumped into Rob and he suggested I join up here.

PS Weyland Yutani experimentation has clearly created metal xenomorphs.

Great to see another 2 marines at the con. The picture of Elwyn & me shows how much Spats armour has changed over the years

Not a fair fight but USCM tech is almost 200 years more advanced than Umbrella Corp (mission to LV-426 was in 2179 and Umbrella Corp is present day). So you'd probably take a few of them if it wasn't at point blank range.

Hi Elwyn
Have a look at David's Cosplay Adventures on Facebook. He has a couple of pictures of you from the weekend.

In case anyone is wondering, my armour is MOJ#112, Rob's is MOJ#418. Interesting differences in between 300 sets...
