Horror from Outer Space

In space, no one can hear you scream. Audiences, however, have been screaming in shock and terror at Ridley Scott’s 1979 sci-fi/horror masterpiece Alien for nearly thirty years. Today NECAonline revisits the original sci-fi nightmare as they debut composite images of the upcoming Alien 7″ Scale Action Figure!

Movie-accurate, standing 9″ tall, and boasting over 20 points of articulation, the Alien Action Figure is the first figure that truly captures the nightmarish essence of H.R. Giger’s iconic creature design. The Alien 7″ Scale Action Figure will begin hitting store shelves at the end of this month. Make sure to check back for the latest updates and more!

AFI Presents - the DCUC Custom Showcase

Posted by: vader at 12:16 pm on Wednesday, May 7, 2008

Remember the Captain Marvel custom by our very own Grundy that we posted here a few days ago? Well if that has inspired some of you to try your hands at customizing figures, you have to check out and consider joining the DCUC Custom Showcase.

The guys behind Action Figure Insider have, for quite some time now, been planning to host a custom figure event. And after several weeks of brainstorming, this is the end result.

Jason “ToyOtter” Geyer explains, “The concept is simple: customize any DCUC/DCSH or related figure into any character in any comic universe! Just think of it as what would happen if the Four Horsemen could sculpt anything they wanted in the line.”

Visit the DCUC Custom Showcase page to get more info.
