Hey everyone. Videos will continue in the usual format moving forward. I am aware the camerawork here isn't great but I was just very excited about the shoes and quickly made this video because I wanted to share my excitement with subscribers. If the poor camerawork annoys you enough to leave a nasty comment, I do apologize, but there is nothing I can do at this point. Thank you.
Great cop mate! As a sneakerhead myself I really dug this deviation from the norm. Protip: Do NOT wear those beauts outta the house.. The years you spent trying to get these & the years you'll be able to appreciate them in the future, literally outweigh the few months you'll have em on your feet... Keep em in the box 👽👌
That wasp reminded me of the deleted resurrection scene at the beginning where it opens with an extreme closeup of a set of Xenomorph jaws, but instead, it's some kind of insect being crushed.
I keep trying to get Reebok to keep making them. In addition to being classics, my first pair enabled my husband to help me dress during my cancer treatment. I recently gave away my first pair to someone who could not afford them, as she has severe ankle issues. She swore they are the best and most supportive shoes she has ever had.
The way you talk to so funny sounding but soothing. Kinda perfect for audio books. I listen to your alien comic series like a podcast while working in the shed.
I have never been so happy for someone to get something they want. Last year you were so disappointed and now voila! You have the camo. If you don't at least wear them in the house, I will be so mad! Just once - go on...
I managed to get my size ordered before they sold out within 10 minutes of launching. I really wish the Bishop version of the bug stompers would become a permanent shoe for Reebok so we could wear them guilt free.
I feel ya man, that and the fact that they scuff up so easily on the white parts and the grey stripes on the back of the shoes ;_; But, I can't stop wearing them now !
Just enjoy them on your feet honestly. I enjoy them (bishop and bug stomper) every time I wear them and feel no guilt about it and I know someday they'll be destroyed, doesn't change the child/geek like pleasure of wearing those.
Man your voice is so unique man. It’s amazing hearing you talk. Anyway, I am getting this from someone who doesn’t want them - brand new - at S$200! What a steal!
Very cool, dude, congrats! I'm loving pretty much every aspect of the shoes and boxing. I want to buy myself a pair of Bug Stompers at some point, so I'm really hoping that these _aren't_ the last to be released.
I think we'd all love the Ripley originals, but those camo ones are pretty damn nice trainers. You should have tried to stomp that wasp with them (only kidding wasp lovers)!
There are parasitic wasps out there. One is called the Tarantula Hawk. The female stings the spider, paralyzing but not killing it. She then drags the poor arachnid back into it's own hole in the ground and lays eggs in its thorax. When the eggs hatch the larvae eat the tarantula alive.
Man i want these! But i gotta be careful cause im on furlough money right now. I had a pair of the reflection ones a while back, still want the yellow loader inspired ones too.
I see your inner box was crushed too. Mine was as well. Seems to be a problem with their packing. Bums me out as the Weyland type was so cool....if you complain you can get. 25.oo $ towards another purchase....they said they wont send another inner box as they have had too many complaints. But yes...I love the shoes too. Got a pair last time - the 40th bug stomper version and that box was CHERRY.
Those are really cool but they were way too expensive when first released. Idk if they're still available or not and if they've come down in price if so. I probably would've gone for the more Ripley issue looking ones if it was me because I'd be too temped to wear them looking like yours lol.
Please talk about scorn and it's relation to the alien franchise you know like in one of the new video if can that is! I mean no pressure really it's your show/call. Maybe as a small addition... 😅😅😅
@Alien Theory, ive came across this movie a few time IT, The Terror from Beyond Space (1958) people say it was a big inspiration to the alien writers of the first movie. have you ever done a deep dive into this?
You should wear them for a week, then put them on display. These things don't look as cool if they're sitting there out of the box. That makes them look like an oddity. If they look worn, they look real.
I bought these as well and when I got them they were damaged. Had a bunch of scuff marks on the back and the special box was crushed. They ended up refunding me the entire amount so that was great lol but they don’t make a 12.5 so I had to go with the 13 and it just doesn’t fit right :/
Do you guys take off the dog tags or wear them? I just got mine and can't decide. I can't stand buying a shoe and not wearing them, but I won't wear them often and I'll take good care of them. The dog tags seem pretty tough, but they aren't going to be as durable as the rubber tags on stompers like the Bishop Alien Stompers. Will you guys wear them with dog tags or without?
Strange, I would have thought "bug stomper" shoes would fit in more closely with Starship Troopers. Also, it would be cool to see some that look like a hatching egg, where the shoe's tongue and "throat" are the egg's "petals" opening, with a velcro facehugger covering where the laces would be.
Haha sadly no one really likes 2010 space Odyssey. I think it's a great sequel, especially since it's not trying to be Kubrick. They knew they couldn't pull off Kubrick so they just made a solid movie.
This is random but I swear you and the Horror show comics channel are voice brothers haha. You guys sound similar except your focused on the Horrors of Aliens and he's focused on, well it used to be Junji Ito before the copy right strikes.
They may have just sold out of the larger sizes. I picked up a pair in 11 and they definitely went higher than that. Keep your eye out, they may turn up on the 2nd hand market yet.

All good brotha, those of us subscribers share your love and enthusiasm.

Enjoy any video you do! Would love to see a vid on your Alien collection!
No worries bruh, and I love these shoes. They’ll look great with my orange board shorts and Ed Hardy t-shirt.

I need to know one thing sbout those sneakers - where they are 🔫
Bloody awsome.

@@Mr.Beauregarde appreciated.

My God, that box is full of stars!
I'd leave those on during cryo-sleep. Somebody might take 'em.
🤣
The way you talk to so funny sounding but soothing. Kinda perfect for audio books. I listen to your alien comic series like a podcast while working in the shed.
Well.....shit! Those are pretty damn cool and absolutely badass! Didn’t even know such a thing existed. Somebody wake up Hicks.
Derek, I'm just relieved that on opening the box you weren't attacked by a Face Hugger.
What with it being from Weyland-Yutani and all...
I have never been so happy for someone to get something they want. Last year you were so disappointed and now voila! You have the camo. If you don't at least wear them in the house, I will be so mad! Just once - go on...
They are still available in the reebok store. 220$ im really tempted to get a pair.
Victor Herrera get them man if you can. If they had my size 13 man I would get those quick.
I managed to get my size ordered before they sold out within 10 minutes of launching. I really wish the Bishop version of the bug stompers would become a permanent shoe for Reebok so we could wear them guilt free.

@@Nico-qh9ew That's exactly what I've started to :)
Super excited you got your new Stompers. They are Slick looking!
Absolutely badass! I didn't know those existed. I want them.
Very Nice~! Kudos on scoring the shoes. Personally, I would just display them. I'd even keep the shipping box and the shoe "pod" too.
Man your voice is so unique man. It’s amazing hearing you talk.
Anyway, I am getting this from someone who doesn’t want them - brand new - at S$200!
What a steal!
So very cool man keep up the good work. I hope you're doing well during the quarantine.
Likewise! Thank you and stay safe.
Man, I wanted a pair of those and the t-shirt to match. I'm jealous and happy for you right now! Nice pickup.👍
There's still stock available
I had NO iDEA these existed! Now I’m on eBay trying to get a pair. I would totally wear these.
Very cool, dude, congrats! I'm loving pretty much every aspect of the shoes and boxing. I want to buy myself a pair of Bug Stompers at some point, so I'm really hoping that these _aren't_ the last to be released.
Bug comes to investigate box,
'Hmm. Bug Stompers'
Gets out of there fast...
Fantastic purchase! Its retailing for 250 CAD here. A bit steep but a good collectors item.
We endanger species! Ha ha ha the air, pouch "It's black goo!"
Dude i thought you were just reading books, you really love aliens, cool! And you have a great voice
Ahh man this is reminding me of the Nike Vandals that Kyle Reece puts on in Terminator when he's grabbing clothes.
So funny you get a pair of big stompers and almost immediately a bug lads on em🤣🤣
Do these get released every year? And if so, when? I can't believe I missed the boat on this!
Unfortunately this was the last year.
Alien day is April 26th (for LV-426)
I think we'd all love the Ripley originals, but those camo ones are pretty damn nice trainers. You should have tried to stomp that wasp with them (only kidding wasp lovers)!
I’d love a pair of bishops. I think those are beautiful
You tried to buy those for years and I just discovered then now with your video!
They’ll go well with my board shorts and Ed Hardy t-shirts.
Another thing! wasps and xenomorphs! Perhaps this is a sign! Meaning parasitic wasps! Anyways God bless you.
There are parasitic wasps out there. One is called the Tarantula Hawk. The female stings the spider, paralyzing but not killing it. She then drags the poor arachnid back into it's own hole in the ground and lays eggs in its thorax. When the eggs hatch the larvae eat the tarantula alive.
Can hear the excitement in his voice
Cool shoes dude 👀. Most definitely I would keep them on display 👌.
Thank you you’re my best friend
Alien Theory LOL wow beat me to it. Thanks best friend 🙃
Anytime
Wow those are cool, congratulations!
And I am so glad you got them!!!!!!!!!!
All I know is this. you BETTER be Disney's OFFICIAL ADVISER for the next Alien movie!!!
I keep forgetting to lock these down. Next year I'm gonna get a pair
Still pairs available
There wont be a release next year. Unfortunately this was the last collab.
Awesome! Clearly not an unboxing channel!
Not that I watch those anyway but those are some cool shoes!
Lucky guy!
I couldn’t really pull off wearing shoes like that, but I’m jealous all the same. 👍
Congrats on getting the shoes.
Man i want these! But i gotta be careful cause im on furlough money right now. I had a pair of the reflection ones a while back, still want the yellow loader inspired ones too.
Very cool. Thanks for sharing. If I could get some in my size I'd be all over those.
That's awesome man I hope you enjoy yourself as I have enjoyed your work
Thank you very much!
God bless you man keep safe. 👍
I got excited thinking we may actually see the face behind the voice
I don't need them...
I don't need them...
I NEEEEDDDDD THEEEEMMMMM!!!!!!!
I see your inner box was crushed too. Mine was as well. Seems to be a problem with their packing. Bums me out as the Weyland type was so cool....if you complain you can get. 25.oo $ towards another purchase....they said they wont send another inner box as they have had too many complaints.

Now you need the rest of the uniform and a pulse rifle enjoy your new xenomorph kicker 👍🏼
Those are really cool but they were way too expensive when first released. Idk if they're still available or not and if they've come down in price if so. I probably would've gone for the more Ripley issue looking ones if it was me because I'd be too temped to wear them looking like yours lol.
Cool man you deserve them 👍🏼
Please talk about scorn and it's relation to the alien franchise you know like in one of the new video if can that is! I mean no pressure really it's your show/call. Maybe as a small addition... 😅😅😅
Sweet!! I'd wear them once and then display them.
@Alien Theory, ive came across this movie a few time IT, The Terror from Beyond Space (1958) people say it was a big inspiration to the alien writers of the first movie. have you ever done a deep dive into this?
They're beautiful
Omg, I've gotta have a pair of these!
Futuristic yet not gaudy. Thats a surprisingly tough line to walk.
You should wear them for a week, then put them on display. These things don't look as cool if they're sitting there out of the box. That makes them look like an oddity. If they look worn, they look real.
Good point!
These are really cool.

Thats dope, i want a pair

Size 10 you say? Nice! When can I borrow them?
Does Anyone know if they are available in the UK? Btw love your vids and shoes
Damn those are beautiful
I am genuinely jealous. That's a hard thing to do.
Awesome !
Totally Awesome 👏
Is this the first hand reveal we've gotten?
Whoa. These are cool
What the hell is “outside”?
02:42 It's Full of Stars.
OH NO! Alien, Predator and Blade Runner are in the same universe as 2001!
Haha sadly no one really likes 2010 space Odyssey. I think it's a great sequel, especially since it's not trying to be Kubrick. They knew they couldn't pull off Kubrick so they just made a solid movie.
Bad ass! Great video
You have a good narrator voice, especially for a Canadian
Oh, I didn't know that this dude is Canadian. I'm Canadian, so that's kinda cool. :)
Damn son. What size are those.
WHAT ARE THOSEEEE!
Right so I have this "thing" for 90s trainers with velcro. 💦
display man, display
Do you ever see a box now and then you think what if its a facehugger ?
Those are dope 👍
They’re ugly as sin but as a hardcore alien fan can’t help but wanting a pair especially cause of the box, logos, patches etc...what a gem!!
BTW, I love your voice.
THATS SO COOL
ok, I want these shoes now
This is random but I swear you and the Horror show comics channel are voice brothers haha. You guys sound similar except your focused on the Horrors of Aliens and he's focused on, well it used to be Junji Ito before the copy right strikes.
IDK Reebok made “Alien” sneakers! 😱
What’s up brotha,
I gotta admit, they definitely aren’t the best looking shoes, but they ARE the coolest. I’d 💯% proudly display them though.
They didn’t come with a Power Loader?
By the way, what its like in Vietnam now?
Those are *dope*
Nice sneaks
Alien Theory, would you consider doing a Q&A. or potentially a face reveal?
Dude I’m not gonna lie I want some
Would be cool if they were military style boots.
💯Only for the true hardcore fans🤟
come on, whats the damage? How expensive are they?
i just got mine and...i think im gonna wear them..their too cool to just sit around
Lucky you. Enjoy.
I was about to order a pair. The largest size they come in is 10....I’m a size 11 😔😭😭
They may have just sold out of the larger sizes. I picked up a pair in 11 and they definitely went higher than that. Keep your eye out, they may turn up on the 2nd hand market yet.
These are my Bug Stomper's,There arnt many like them ,But these are mine !! lol
So sweet!!
