For you who like "Aliens," this is cool stuff. There have been very few companies who have attempted any scale model from that movie, and they'repretty much inaccurate toys. But Aoshima did the drop ships several years ago in limited numbers and hand-built (01, the weathered 'Bug Stomper' thatthe Marines use (this one); 02, the clean 'Smart A$$' that is remote-piloted; and a black version that wasn't in the film). Found one recently,unopened, so I took the liberty. Not cheap, but entirely metal and heavy and just over a foot long with incredible detail, operating missile pods, tight hingesand lowering ramp for the APC (which can be had separately, and fits inside!). The skids can be removed and replaced with flush retracted ones...
