I hope you jarheads saw these two this year...

















My friends Heather and Kendra. I tried finding some Marines to pose with them, but had to settle for Abe and a couple Marines new to Legacy.

Easily the best Ripley I've ever seen (she's 6'0"+) and the only Newt I've ever seen! Probably my favorite costume of 2012. And to top it off, she would hold Newt like that the whole time people were taking pics! A real trooper. I'm trying to talk them into doing it again next year.

Enjoy!

That's actually all sorts of adorable! Sorry that I missed them.

Alright, that is ten kinds of awesome. She even has the damn shoes! I'm helping my wife with a Ripley costume for Halloween, and this just became the template for doing it right.

We (as in you guys/gals) have to loan out a flamethrower for her to tape to that M41!

Awesome!

Very awesome! Great pics. The pants the marines are wearing is a good cheap substitute for the uscm camo. I picked up a pair of them for $14.00 at Walmart. They had t shirts that macthed the pants but no actual Bruce top. The pants were military style cargoes not bad for $14 bucks. Besides thx for sharing those kick ass pics

Yes, I do.

I didn't see that Ripley or Newt... But I did bump into those other two Marines twice. The first one when I was in a bit of a hurry, but on the second time, we ended up talking for about 20 minutes, and did a great photo shoot for on-lookers. I gave them my hobby-card and I think I've got them recruited.

Yeah, I had a good conversation with them too. Didn't need to twist their arms too much to get on the ready line.

When Heather posted that she was planning to do Ripley I told her to find the table, and all of you guys.

Man, no clue. I just remember walking by when they were posing with the alien and being VERY impressed.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone pull this off before

I still can't get over how the woman portraying Ripley is holding the other on her hip. She looks pretty light? but man that must have hurt after awhile.
