The joints in this section were a bit loose though, and I could see this becoming a problem for the figure standing eventually. The articulation has plenty of options, with the upper legs able to extend outward a bit allowing for Big Chap to even sit cross legged. Hiya recently released in improved 2nd version of their Predator Jungle Hunter figure so perhaps Big Chap will eventually get the same treatment. The teeth lack fine detail and the silver paint in the area spills upwards a little. The detail is overall fantastic with the only problem spot I can see being the mouth. The paint job works well, with a semi-glossy black look, featuring grey and slight green tones for the accents and highlights. The figure is not without a few issues, but overall it’s a worthy Big Chap. The Big Chap by Hiya Toys is a solid figure, presenting a faithful recreation of the original Alien. Many figures of this Alien design have been produced by different companies through the years, and fans have compared these releases to see which company has produced a figure with the best screen accuracy. Big Chap is considered by many to be the pinnacle of Xenomorph design, the classic original designed by H.

Recently they’ve released their first Alien figure from the original film, known by fans as ‘Big Chap’ and also how it’s named on the packaging. While I typically preferred larger 6″ to 7″ figures when I was younger, I’ve come around to this smaller format, and Hiya has brought very nice detail and articulation regardless of the size. The ‘Exquisite Mini’ figures by Hiya are 1:18 scale, a bit less than 4″, and in line with classic G. There’s even quite a few more planned for this year, and it won’t be long before they’ve released figures from every film in the franchises (sans Prometheus), as well as from the video game Aliens: Colonial Marines, which is where they started with the Alien license. At this point I would imagine only NECA has them beat for the sheer variety of posable figures they’ve put out. Hiya Toys just keeps releasing new Alien, Predator, and AVP figures.
