I sit through all the RUclips ads to support this show.
We appreciate it. I do the same thing with my favorite channels.
#solidarity my comic brother 😃
Im super pumped!
Famous Tony from Hack the Movies is in this!
And super famous. 😁
It's that guy who was in The Dark Knight Rises!
If you ask him nicely he may mention it!
Another great episode as always! I hope Tony returns for more episodes!!
Oh, I'm sure he'll be back at some point
Its quite a commute from rental rev... er.. ahh Hack the movies, but Tony is a pro and i too hope to see him back again on Pegwarmers.
@@JONNYSORENSEN_AU yeah Tony can afford all those toys cause of his Batman movie role so he’ll be back soon I bet
The Kenner Aliens toyline was supposed to be based on an animated series similar to Robocop and Rambo, it wasn't "ignoring the movies." There is supposedly one episode made but I don't believe it's been leaked.
Yeah, we talked about that they were based on cartoons, but that information wasn't known back in the days so it was very confusing to kids that saw the movies.
@@Pegwarmers Even if it was terrible, kinda sad it didn't happen.
Genndy Tartakovsky also attempted to make an Aliens animated series which never came to fruition.
I'm not sure if that's even true, I've also heard the whole thing is an urban legend and there were never any plans to make an animated series at all. We've all seen the screencaps from _some_ kind of animation but has anyone actually seen the animation itself? For all we know they could've made that to promote something else entirely. I would've assumed it was the toys but they just used clips from the actual movie in the toy commercials, too.
The X men fold out cover #1 is actually going up in value, definitely nostalgia tied with covid collecting craze.
I see toy people.
It's super famous Tony from Hack The Movies! 😁
Scorpion alien was my fave.
So cool, but the feature was on a hair pin.
@@Pegwarmers agreed, lots of those old spring-loaded action features don’t stay locked in place.
Nice!! This was one of my favorite toy lines of the 90s! I remember hearing rumors of this line happening shortly before it came out and wondering if it’d be based on Alien3. Hahah
Tony's instagram promotion brought me here. I still have the Bull Alien, The Flying Queen, and Corporal Hicks!
I live the gripping feet on the flying queen.
@@Pegwarmers heck yeah! Also after watching the episode I remember DEFINITELY having that awesome exploding damage alien, but the pieces to that got lost over the years lol. I remember the mini comics that would come with the action figures too, and how they made Bishop look more robotic. I think Dark Horse prob did the comics given the time period
That flying Queen was always one of my favorites! And that exploding alien was such a pain to put together after it got used too many times
I see Tony from hack the movies and I click. Great video!
Time for more Pegwarmers!
Thanks for checking in!
Tony sure knows a lot about toys!
Hes an old man! Not really. But when youve lived it, then you literally were there... such as when they rolled out those gaudy kenner alien figs my mate bought then traded to me when he had enough of them. I used to sees then shelfwarming in same store as generation two tank megatron in the 90s. 😀
I never had the chance to buy those figures since I don't have adult money like Tony has
Maybe some day you'll be famous and have adult money.
@@Pegwarmers I'll never get famous like Tony
Thank you.
The size of gummy worms compared to gummy bears paints a horrific picture of the gummy universe.
Don't forget Swedish Fish.
I still have the Bull Alien and tiny comic book that I got as a kid.
It's one of only two of my childhood toys that survived to adulthood.
I had the bull, scorpion and gorilla my mate traded to me. No idea where they are now 🤔
Years ago, when I was a kid, my local KB Toys had a massive clearance salle of the billion and a half alien and predator peg warmers they had, so I cleaned out my piggy bank and got all of the predators for like $1.50 each, even that Spike Tailed one that I didn't care about because it didn't look like any of the ones in the movies.
I love stories like that from when we were kids!
@@Pegwarmers heck yeah. I still have two of the helmets, specifically the ones modeled after the jungle Hunter and City Hunter. Only reason I have them is because they were stored in a cardboard command base my mom and I made, so they were saved from the yard sale that eventually claimed the figures themselves. Years in the attic reduced the base itself to a crumpled pile by the time I went looking for it again, but the helmets were still in there, much to my nostalgic delight, so I cleaned them up and gave the purple one a coat of silver paint to make it more movie accurate, and now they sit among a little display on my desk.
Got to thank Tony for being on this show made me subscribe to pegwarmers great show can't wait to see another episode
loving the show
Thanks! We are all trying really hard to put out a great product.
@@Pegwarmers hitting home runs guys. The cine podcasts you guys are doing are awesome and highlight of the week for me. 😀
Awesome episode! I have watched and listened to this one so many times in the past week. I love your show 💯
Thanks so much!!
WOW! How did you guys get such a celebrity as world *famous* Tony from Hack the Movies to appear on the other side of the roo... I mean on the Podcast?☺
I asked him really politely.
Also didn't realize that newt is the producer now I feel bad for shunning him at retrocon 🤣
You shunned Newt?
I walked up to Tony and told him I was a fan and he was like oh see somebody wants to see Tony not new and I gave him the hand gesture of go away but in reality yes we know newt is a good guy I also called Justin Jason and was like hey Keeran
@@TandLtoys um... its pronounced "Beeran" , actually! But no, not really, dude has slimmed down big time.
Did u say beercan.
Come for the toy talk, stay for the praying mantis facts. Aliens was one of my favorite toy lines from the early 90s.
Thanks for watching!
It's nice to hear Newt again. I hope he's doing better
A few years back I had the bull alien and I posed my neca bill from contra riding him like it's an intergalactic rode. I liked it so much I kept him posed like that for months
Great display idea
NEWT!!! 😁😁😁😁😁
Having been absolutely obsessed with the Alien line as a kid, you guys had a lot of errors in this episode.
I collected all the aliens and predators. They also made a King alien too.
This channel is great . I subbed . I miss retro toys
Welcome to the channel!
Apone had a spring-loaded waist, you'd use that to chuck the grenades.
Vasquez came with a pulse rifle...I believe the only pulse rifle in the entire line, which is weird.
Bishop's secondary weapon looks to be a cattle prod, some toy designer referencing Brett's cattle prod from the first movie, no doubt.
The same exact thing happened to my Bishop's Gatling run, actually. Cheap plastic.
I didn't remember that Apone's waste was spring loaded, and I thought Bishop was spring loaded.
The Hicks figure shown at 46:03 is from the Reaction series, not the Kenner line.
We knew before the episode came out, but a new editor was being trained and I didn't want to complain.
My brother and I had the first four Aliens in the series.....I left mine in the blister packs while he displayed his on his book shelves. It was around that time that we had seen Alien 3 at the cinema, which was.....okay (could have been better).
The time lag on making toys based on the 2nd film is so odd.
I need to be honest with you guys. I never paid attention to the Aliens vs Predators, Aliens, and Predators toys. I was really into the Star Wars, GI Joes, Transformers, Ghostbusters, Batman (Keaton versions toy line), Super Friends, X-Men, Robocop, Ninja Turtles, Star Trek The Next Generation, and so on. Anyways, guys, I wished I did collect.some of the Aliens and Predators toys. With this in mind, I wanted to say that since Pegwarmers with Kevin and Mike had Tony and Newt it made it a little more entertaining. Additionally, I also had an entertaining time when Kevin showed up for the GI Joe and Transformers episodes for Hack The Movies (or Tapes). Therefore, a combination of Pegwarmers and Hack the Movies- back to back- episodes can help the congruency of movies with toys... Anyhow, who cares, I probably had too much coffee this morning. Man, I like these podcast crossovers, as Tony the Tiger would say, "Grrrrreat."
I appreciate your kind words and I'm really glad you you are enjoying the content. Sounds like you had a lot of great toys as a kid.
Alien Queen DOES have extra arms in the films. Tyvm.
SHE ONLY HAS 4 ARMS! THE TOY HAS SIX!
@@HackTheMovies No...with all due respect. She had two additional vestigial T-Rex type limbs. That's four arms and two legs. 6 limbs.
Fun videos as always!
Thanks! It's always great when Tony is on the show.
The Super Mario 64 thing is them trying to artificially inflate the price of older games. if you watch those sales, they are always to the same 3-4 people buying and selling to each other so as to set a precedent for the price being so high. The guys who own these companies are the same ones buying them at these insane prices.
Been waiting for this episode
Did it live up to the hype?
@@Pegwarmers it sure did! Happy to see a toy line I loved as a kid. With the bonus of Tony and Newt!
I used to have most of the Aliens they released, but always really wanted the predator toys. I remember they had a send away for the invisible predator, unfortunately I only knew one kid who had one.
The invisible Predator is a great mail away option.
"...babysitting my girlfriend's son." Hahaha...She must've been out on a date.
Or taking her other son to his doctor's appointment. Ha ha ha.
@@Pegwarmers Possible, but I wouldn't bet on it.
I remember your friend who's dad drew Batman. He was the pal in your Monster in my Pocket vids right?
Yeah Derek from the Monster in my Pocket videos, his Dad wrote Batman for a long time.
I love the comment about Mario kart 64 that was actually very hard to get where I live and if you were the one lucky soul in the neighborhood who had that game all the kids were at your house I think availability is a regional thing because that game nobody could get there hands on where I live
Oh yeah, region and population density are factors.
Kenner Aliens huh? So Kenner really has a thing for toys of 20th century FOX movies when it comes to Star wars. Do you think that Hasbro will make an "Alien" vintage collection?
Once a toy company and a studio had a relationship they usually had a strong partnership. Neca makes Kenner tribute figures.
Please cover the Alien Resurrection and Lanard toys! I own all of them!
Thanks for the suggestion.
battle corps cutter...any points?
I have a lifeline figure I had to change his o ring he was in amazing shape got him home as soon as I took him apart his front croch piece fell off and I was so upset and now I can't find a waist section for lifeline anywhere I'm sad lol
Lifeline is pretty fragile... Not sure if it's the red plastic
@@Pegwarmers they bad part is I can find every part for him except the waist section unless I want to buy another figure which I might break down and do one of these days by the way loved the episodes of the alien and predator toys I loved those when I was a kid
Watch Karl Jobst extensive video on the whole grading debacle. It's great. It's definitely money laundering.
Yeah they covered (and predicted...) this over on Pat the NES PUNks CU podcast which ive been listening to since back then and they totally called this scam bs of wa and heritage, plus the same guys pulled the same scam already with coins apparently.
I had that!!! what if the hulk had killed wolverine .
It's a classic!
Mic Newt.
no no child actors got them toys for free most of the time because they are advertizers or to keep the kid happy, its what i heard, thats probably why he sold them because he kept wht he wanted.
Tony, I fully agree with you on MacFarlane toys. The paint and sculpt is nice, but the articulation, if it exists, breaks the sculpt. And they always super fragile.
And I've held this opinion for years. Until they started making Warhammer 40k. I have the Primaris Ultramarine, Necron Warrior, and Adeptus Sororitas Battle Sister, and they're damn nice. Not quite Figma/Figuarts good, but damn nice. And the Space Marine is a damn solid chunk of plastic, feels like you can bludgeon a man to death with it.

Ha he’s wearing a pixel Dan shirt!
Dan's the man!
