"This rather detailed Power Loader and Xenomorph NPVC Collectible figurine came with the Sega "Aliens: Colonial Marines" Collectors Edition pack. Pack includes the game and additional USCM Dossier with Mission Brief, USS Sephora schematic, recruitment card, LV-426 Recon photo, USCM iron-on badges and Certificate of Graduation…"

USS Sephora? So, the future includes naming ships of war after high end beauty store chains? |

That was the only good thing to come out of the game's development… |

@cloudcaptain I was just going to quip that it's no wonder these limited edition goodies are being made available after the sales numbers of the game were less than stellar! Still, I like how they painted the Alien, it's close to the original colors as far as I can tell. |

the story line in the video game was pretty good. Better than the 3rd and 4th movies that were released. Playing the campaign was fun and gave a good feel to the Aliens (2nd movie) movie. but it only took a few hours to complete. The online play just sucked! It was impossible to get other players to work together as a team. So there was no way for an individual player to do anything but run around until you died. So unless you formed a team prior to playing. it was no fun. |

M1Fanboy. I'm betting they named the ship with this in mind. lol "Sephora originates from "sephos", which is Greek for beauty." |

What was that company that made AWESOME 54mm unpainted plastic Aliens sets. Had Marines with all the characters , Aliens and accessories, including one set with a part of the station. I remember trying to buy some sets, but every buyer proved to be phony. They were great. |

Smokey, not seen those for sale (in a shop) for maybe 8ish years, your memory might be playing tricks about how good they were! |
| Smokey Roan | 09 Feb 2014 9:49 a.m. PST |
Probably. I remember awesome sculpts and poses. :( |

The tree house kids figs are outstanding. |

Yeah, Custer, that's what I thought. I remember ordering them from some unscrupulous merchant, and raidsed the price like 1000% AFTER I ordered and paid, and would only refund my money if I didn't want to pay more. SUCKS |

I was fortunate to find all my figures at the local dollar store. The play sets were an early discount store find. They have a very high collector value now. |
