Classic battles reborn! Japan's GOOD SMILE COMPANY, under its "MODEROID" assembly model kit series, is set to release a highly anticipated model kit of the iconic armored utility suit, the "Power Loader," from the classic film "Aliens." It was scheduled for release in July 2022.
"Aliens," released in 1986, garnered critical acclaim from fans upon its debut as a sequel. Sigourney Weaver reprised her role as protagonist Ellen Ripley. The film ultimately grossed $180 million and won two Academy Awards. Empire Magazine recognized it as "one of the greatest movie sequels of all time."
Fans undoubtedly remember the Power Loader, famously piloted by Ripley during her climactic battle against the Alien Queen at the film's end. This MODEROID release brings that unforgettable scene to life, faithfully recreating both Ripley and the Power Loader as 1/12 scale model kits.
Recreate the iconic scene of the protagonist piloting the machine from the movie. The Power Loader features retractable hydraulic cylinders, while its claws incorporate internal gears for synchronized opening and closing. Flexible tubing is used for the wiring cables, and Ripley herself boasts multiple points of articulation. The kit also includes water-slide decals for added detail. This is a must-have for fans of the classic film.
