Research gentlemen!! The action figure line was actually based on an unproduced animated series Operation aliens. A pilot was created, but never released and Kenner had been promised the licence. So the packaging was re-designed and the figures were released under the title Aliens. This is why both the figures and the mini-comics they came with had that child friendly look/feel to them.
There are some pics of the pilot floating around the web, so check them out. If you can find them!!
@199291931 its hard to promote a toy for a movie kids couldnt watch. Even more if some moms did watched the movie and probably had nightmares even from watching this toy.
And about the price, is no different than any other vintage toy.
all little after 8:02 when he say you never know where ALIENs might be hiding, when the word aliens comes up its a computerized voice, aga hge must haved screwed up on what he was supposed to say
I remember back in around 1991, our local comic shop had a full size alien prop fastened to the ceiling. I nearly shit myself the first time I looked up and saw that snarling at me !! Great episode guys.. LOVE Aliens !!
Pretty nice. Back in the 90's those Aliens toy commercials used to scare the hell out of me... with their bright neon variants... and slime spewing action?
the old school badass intro ah

USA toy versions are always horrible. Stick to Japanese and Chinese versions. More accurate and cheaper. The USA aliens look "cartoonish"

I think the music should be a little lower because when you were talking about the toys it was hard to hear you. Other than that it's awesome!
