A New Alien Minimates Box Set Infiltrates Hastings Stores!
Diamond Select Toys’ Aliens Minimates line has been
creeping up on people, thrilling both movie lovers and Minimates
collectors with its detailed mini-figures of the Colonial Marines and
Warrior Aliens from the 1986 action film
Aliens. But there has only been one set of Minimates based on the original 1979
Alien film… until now! Hastings and MovieStop stores (and gohastings.com) are now offering an all-new
Alien Minimates box set, with three new characters and a brand-new version of the “Big Chap” alien!
Titled “Crew of the USCCSS Nostromo,” this four-pack of Minimates mini-figures includes
the Nostromo’s captain, Dallas; ship’s
navigator Lambert; and engineer Brett in their on-ship looks, as well as
a new Xenomorph figure with a glossy black paint scheme. Called the
“Big Chap” on set, this alien has a clear dome
over his painted skull details. Each 2-inch Minimates mini-figure
features 14 points of articulation as well as fully interchangeable
parts and accessories, including an alien egg, a chestburster alien, a
facehugger and a flamethrower, all packaged on a full-color
blister card.
This Alien set joins the previously released
Alien 35th Anniversary box set, with Ripley, Kane,
Parker and a matte version of the Big Chap, and will be followed by
Aliens Minimates Two-Packs Series 3, which will add the 1979’s film’s
distinctive space suits and the ship’s synthetic human
Ash to the line-up. Offerings based on the 1986 sequel Aliens include
Aliens Two-Packs Series 1 and 2, Aliens Single Packs Series 1, and
Aliens Deluxe Minimates Series 1, with the Power Loader and Alien Queen.
And if you’re an Aliens
fan, be on the lookout for the new, glow-in-the-dark Warrior Alien Vinyl
Bust Bank, also available exclusively from Hastings, MovieStop and gohastings.com! It’s got the same detailed sculpt
as our regular Warrior Alien bank, but it is cast entirely in glowing material! In stores and online now!
