MemberOvomorph01/10/2012Do you think there will be toys/action figures based on the movie? I am not aware of who picked up on the license. Maybe a 12" space jockey figure with exploding chest.

MemberXenomorph01/10/2012Yeah there will be toys. There always are.
Does anyone know who actually did get the license contract?

MemberOvomorph01/10/2012I think if there are toys then the Movie is rated PG-13, There is a law that no rated R movie will be advertised to kids I.E toys, happy meals, and the such. I believe that would settle the "what rating this movie is getting" argument.
I am not 100% sure but pretty sure on this.
What do you all think.

MemberOvomorph01/10/2012Give me the good old days when kenner made an Alien figure and proudly advertised it in their catalog. To hell with political correctness!!

HotToys got the license. So expect high-end 1/6th scale figures. I've been collecting their toys for a few years now. They put out a decent Aliens and predator figures before. All great display/collector pieces. (But you're looking at $200.00+ per figure.)

MemberOvomorph01/10/2012Finally this is a post! Ok I know that Hor Toys is going to make the dolls that are going to be highly detailed and VERY expensive! But let me just say this kenner did make action figure sized characters of Aliens and Predator in the 90's. Also keep in mind too that hasbro did merge or buy out kenner in the late 90's or early 00's. So you never know I know that I would love to have a Prometheus ship that is the same scale as the mellenium falcon I had/have. I mean the toys they could make for this movie would just rock!

MemberXenomorph01/10/2012Guys,
The toys that will be released probbly wont be "kids" toys. These will be more collector item style toys. I have no issue dropping a grand on collectibles for a movie like this. Hell in 20 years they'll probably be worth 10 times that when I watch Xeno Armegeddon XXVII directed by Ridley Scott 5th while riding a shuttle to the colony on the moon.

MemberOvomorph01/10/2012Hot toys does some awesome stuff. I suspect Sideshow collectibles might do some statues also just haven't seen anything yet. Got to be somewhere in production though.

MemberXenomorph01/10/2012I would love a door sized poster of an Alien burning through it like I think Snorky posted a while back

MemberOvomorph01/10/2012Hot toys did the Dallas and Kane figures but was a little late to the party on those

MemberOvomorph01/10/2012Hey I didnt think about toys for adults, in that case the subject of PG-13 or R is still up in the air. Sorry not trying to hijack this thread with a Rating discussion, So I'll end it right there.
