But I'm afraid they will keep the license and let it rot... just for the sake of owning it. They did keep it for years without releasing anything.

I'm fascinated by how "Alien" fans are far and away the most picky, and biggest sticklers for accuracy.
I would never have guessed that in a million years.
The Alien is one of the most complex creature designs in film history, and I would guess one of the more difficult to replicate.
Yet to the average Alien fan, anything less than 100% accuracy is total garbage.
I promise I'm not kidding or trying to be a jerk, I just genuinely find it incredibly interesting.

Probably not.
I've always been interested in the motivations, passions, and prejudices, of folks.
I should've been economist LOL!

It's already starting to deteriorate... what a shame.

Good lord. I would be pissed! And you know he had to pay more than just $250 for him in the first place.

Hmm......I was going to get one in the next few weeks. Maybe I'll wait for a bit...
Truth be told, I was somewhat tempted to use my reward points and give this figure an honest shot. Glad I didn't. Hot Toys never learns.
I don't understand why they insist on using rubber when even in the instruction manual, they warn against keeping the mouth open for extended periods of time.
Why not cast in hard plastic and do something like this?
The area outlined in red would be interchangeable and two would be included with each figure: one open mouth and one closed mouth. No rubber, no stretch, just a fixed sculpt. For the open mouth, they could throw in two different inner-tongue lengths held in place via magnet: one short (to keep inside the mouth) and one extended.
It seems like a no-brainer to me.

They are foolish and cheap.

unfortunately hot toys doesn't use common sense logic when it comes to these things and they have demonstrated that time and again.
you might not take into consideration one more point:
1/6 figures are always said to be more accurate than smaller things, because it's easier to sculpt and paint details on them.
yet both A1 and A2 in 1/6 get hate from buyers, while smaller variants are loved. you won't find even a glimpse of that hate in Neca/Konami/Kotobukiya threads, and you will see 99,99% of people ignoring inaccuracies there.
and both hated 1/6s are accidentally made by one company, sculpted and painted by one man
like on Robocop or predators, yes.Why not cast in hard plastic and do something like this?

after your post i'm so happy they didn't go this rubber way with Robocop face.
imagine it - one piece of deteriorating rubber which you can form into different expressions with inner mechanism.
...literally!
That's a goocher man.
