I'm having a hard time finding where the actual videos are. Looks like one was released already. From the trailer they look pretty well done.

Only one's out so far

That ain't right, she should be an Ursula or a Maleficent, it's right there in her name

I'm not normally drawn towards the little Funko figures that I see, but it was very difficult to put this one back down.



Funkos are the one's that are uniformly generic large-headed empty-soul big-eye lumps of plastic, this looks like its got actual detail on it

I only ever had one alien toy. It was the Flying Queen Alien and it whipped so much rear end. I wanted the others but I had a weirdly difficult time finding them.

I had that one too! Flapping wings and clawed feet that could grab things or just perch on your finger



Also had the gorilla which you filled the head with water and squeezed to spray from its mouth like acid, and squeezed the back pipe things to move its arms open and closed. The tail claw broke off at one point.



And of course the bitch herself, with realist tail whipping action and an inner jaw that shot out when you squeezed the back of her head



The minicomic that came with them was like a saturday morning cartoon that never got made.

Also look along the bottom directly in the middle; there's an alien drone in a completely different art style that's being obscured by the photoshopped/traced aliens. What the gently caress is going on with this?

Just when the NYPD shoots a random immigrant in NYC 300 times...

For comparison in Germany for their Police Department I think there were a 165 bullets fired in a entire year.

Honestly the least plausible part of that scene is that it was a white guy

I've wondered what that final fight scene from Predator would've been like if it involved prime-Arnie up against JCVD in an appropriately-sized Predator costume. I bet it would've been pretty neat.

there's a series of logs written over the course of the voyage followed by a newspaper article of the ship's arrival

You couldnt put the Halo 3 collectors edition Master Chief helmet on anything, big or small, because it wasn't even a real helmet, it was just a hosed case for the game and was iirc just one big chunk of plastic. God drat I was pissed.

You could maybe put it on a cat though https://www.polygon.com/22801118/halo-3-legendary-edition-cat-helmet-too-small-spartan
