Hi Ken!

No, I scrolled back and I got a confirmation too. Looking forward to
seeing these. Then we'll have to trade to be sure we got a complete set!

Every box of 10 contains every figure with the exception
of Lt. Ellis, and since Lt. Ellis is only in one out of
every 4 boxes of 10, I suspect that anyone who manages
to get a Lt. Ellis figure is going to want to keep it!

So I doubt that there will be much trading going on
after all...

Hey folks! I just got my UFO alien model from Monsters in Motion of
California. He's 12 inches tall and made of very heavy material. He has to
be washed and put together, painted and his green visor etc put on. The box
shows his costume as being red and silver, but on my TV, even with the new
videotapes I bought last year, the alien costumes STILL look orange and
silver to me. Any comments on this?

I'm planning to do a diorama of him with one of my Barbies as his "victim".
He even comes with an alien weapon just like in the show. Very pleased with
him. Check out www.monstersinmotion.com or call them at 714-577-8863 if
you're in the US.

Ciao - Pam

Could be your TV set. Many TV sets are designed to make sure
that flesh tones always look like flesh tones, and an unfortunate
side effect of this is that things which are supposed to look
yellow or red end up looking orange. If you watch the UFO DVDs
on a computer monitor instead of a TV, you may notice that the
yellows and reds seem much more accurate, because computers
don't have this "feature".

(alternately, it could be the videotapes were poorly transfered
with inaccurate colors)

So Marc, when I paint this thing, it SHOULD be red? Pam

Yes. Red and silver.
