Yeah but it's about time that europe get a release date before the US. Anyway, I'm going to get Hunter Edition on Xbox 360 and Standard Edition for PC. Man, It's going to cost alot but worth every pound.

Must...Get..Hunter edition!!!!
I was hoping for a model of a Warrior Xeno, but the Facehugger will still be niiiccee

[Maelstrom.X]

Great find, Xeno Soffish. +R

I don't know who'd want a posable facehugger. Girls are weirded out enough by all the empty lube bottles and crumpled Kleenexes scattered about my room; can you imagine what that'd look like with a greasy, fingered va-jayjay just lying around?

You make it sound so easy to be undesirable.

I'm surprised they're giving out WY patches tbh; you'd think a dog tag would make more sense, considering how I'd say a majority of the fanbase loathes the corporation, no?

[Toxic Predator]

Putting a Facehugger is kinda stupid!
What about Predator fans and Marine fans?
