Alternate lifesize Alien bust with shoulders to the sideshow Aliens release?

[uscmhicks]

As nice as the coolprops busts are I've wanted an aliens bust with shoulders for over 15 years. I missed out on the OG back in the day. I remember HCG doing one but I wasn't a fan and I don't like the head on a stick design of the cool props stuff. Are there any alternatives on the market?

A local shop to me actually has a blatant aliens sideshow lifesize bust recast in their window for £3,000. I'm assuming they purchased it from one of those alibaba sellers lol.

Unless you are lucky enough to find a real SWS one secondhand I would say recast and repaint or wait it out and hope someone else does one. I got lucky last year or so and found a NIB one(it was $$$ though), but like you I don't care for the coolprops look either so that was my only alternative.

I have made a few in the past few years,individual chrome teeth,inner jaw,individual cast bones running the length of the head,clear vac form dome,airbrushed and layered colours,worked with Giger a few times too and moulded the original for him.

This Alien bust is really really awesome! I have seen it in youtube. I have the coolprops version but I finds yours simply PERFECTION.
