Didn't mean to stir up debate, I can't see what's wrong between the film and the figures for the Alien Warriors.

I've spent a fair amount of time comparing different shots of this guy below to the tons of reference pics in "The Winston Effect" book, which has lots of really good pics of the warriors. I gotta say it looks extremely accurate in most respects.... Though there are some minor differences, it appears from the shots in the book that there are some variations in the actual warrior costumes in the movie, especially around the neck/shoulders. At any rate, you gotta love the new headsculpt with all the bony ridges and stuff......

Actually, there are differences as pointed out by Les (who has seen it in person at Bob Burns and has an expert eye with these) The differences have also been pointed out to the HT Design team by a few of us, abake, yours truly, etc.

First off. I love aliens, so I wouldn't pick on something if it wasn't there.
Make no mistake, I'm getting this guy, it rocks! But there are inaccuracies there.
I found this pic over at The Hive forum, and though it's from the 1st headsculpt, the highlighted areas aren't the same as the movie version.
Same issue with the AVP alien. It looks cool, but the 5th spike, and head patten (just to mention a few) isn't movie accurate.

tru dat dave. All which is Aliens comes from this Monster thread, the definitive Aliens thread on this planet anyway.
This is what we pointed out to the HT Design team, tail wagging dog here, old news, been forwarded to HT months ago. We'll see.

Other than Bob Burns, Les is the resident Alien expert among other things.
