40 years ago this little horror film no one believed in was released.

 

[EVILFACE]

A fine movie.

I remember getting the large Alien figure (brother got a large Gene Simmons Mego) but didn't see it until a double billing when ALIENS came out.

 

[Snake Plissken]

40 years ago this little horror film no one believed in was released.

And no studio believes in it today. Which is why they keep handing it to the same feeble minded old man.

I just want better figures from the original two films. We still need Neca to re-release the damn Big Chap and Hot Toys needs to get off the Marvel cock long enough to... I dunno, give everyone the definitive Big Chap.

Seriously, what is it going to take?

For them to be in a Marvel or Star Wars film.
