I just bought mine off ebay and I can't wait to get it. I love this movie. Actually I love all those 80's(and early 90's) sci-fi movies like Event Horizon, Deep Star Six, Leviathan, Virus, etc. They take me back to those late night movie scare-fests as a kid. I really wish they made more of those kinda movies nowadays. Anyway, I'll probably be doing a touch-up on mine as well after seeing how well yours came out. Nice job!
Wow, that Goliath repaint is really nice. I wish I was able to re-paint figures, I don't trust myself enough lol, I'd probably fuck up or something. If for some ridiculous reason you decide to ever sell your Goliath, hit me up! But I imagine you'll be holding on to it for life, for good reason! It's beautiful!
Really cool. I get very fascinated when I see complex machines. Even if they're just toys, the parts that they make to look complex as in the movie. You did a great job on the paint too.
Aun recuerdo esta película y sus geniales monstruos que estaban muy bien diseñados, lástima que sea una película infravalorada y sea poca la gente que la aprecia, para mi esta en mi top de las películas que yo amo pero los demás detestan. Muy buenos juguetes de colrccion, ojalá y yo hubiera tenido alguno. Buen video.
I'm glad you found this film and i hope for you that you will get the figures someday. There is a Goliath figure on ebay right now, but its from USA. (05.2024)
There's a product called Rejuvenate Wood Floor Polish, it will tighten up those hip joints without making them unable to pose anymore. Hope you haven't glued them yet!
Good work! Very good movie... even more we are now building and beyond with those robot insects. I remember when I first saw one (insert robot), this movie came to mind immediately. I'm working on an autonomous 1:8 scale rock crawler and the possibilities keeps growing. Liked and subbed :) p.s. I'm not a Google fan either, but I gave when I started posting :)
Maybe the director just found the concept alone intriguing enough to make something of his own than just a "copy by the books". Or he just wanted to make a special effects heavy and gory movie. Who knows.
@@DerMovie1984 in the comic, the Virus was just an alien computer virus that hijacked it could. In the movie suddenly it was a lifeform that decided humans were the virus....one makes logical sense...& the other was in the movie. Still loads of daft fun though & makes a great double bill with Deep Rising :-)
That movie was pretty good for a sci-fi movie at the time. I read the comic back when I was a kid, and it was way better than the actual movie though. I think that if this movie were to be rebooted today, we would get a heck of a movie!
If you put some drops of very watery glue or nail varnish in the joints and keep moving them as it dries, it should make them tighter but still useable.
{SPOILERS} I didn't mind the movie. I thought the animatronics were pretty good and a nice thing to see after so much CGI in modern films. I also didn't mind the plot, as it's refreshing to see an alien using humans for spare parts rather than something to just eat.
Hell yea! I loved this movie. I remember thinking "Wow, this movie had some real meat to it, it's been ages seen I've seen a good horror movie", so I was surprised when my movie buddies all felt it was trash.
awesome showcase . always wanted the Goliath but it was too expensive in the only show I saw it in. but those repaints are nice. I know its been a while since you posted this but if you still have it and didn't glue the legs some furniture polish can tighten loose joints on figures
Movie was a head of its time, you should also try to find a movie called Moontrap, it has a a similar story about alien robots that turn humans into spare parts.
Good video, I wish I could buy those repaints but I would prefer to hear your real voice because I just hate it when people use text to speeches because its just so overused and just sounds bad
Understandable. I can speak english, but with a heavy german accent. =S I will maybe try to speak in one of my videos, if i find something that is worth making a video about. Thank you for your comment. =)
I enjoyed it! First time i saw it, this movie tense as fuck for me atleast when i was young like 8 years old but it is still good today and more and more i look at that movie, these bots remind me terminator but that is no shit! :)
An underrated gem. It's a sci-fi horror masterpiece-- who says everything has to be on the nines; shame on you though for repainting rare action figures💩👎
