There are some new A L I E N & Predator 2009 Calendars available for pre-order in the Alien/Predator subsection of Westfield Comics here.

Do you know why there's no Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem calendar? Because the movie sucked, that's why. Movies should not be greenlit by marketing and accounting departments. Just because you CAN film a movie with Alien and Predator costumes in the Canadian woods because it's cheap and you can get a tax break, doesn't mean you should. Cash in on the fan's good will and soon there'll be nothing left...

Yeah, I said it.

Good times.

For those of you having trouble assembling your Aliens Snap Kits (and other similar collectibles), here's a helpful tip: warming the plastic makes it breeze to insert the ball joints into place without risk of breakage. Simply warm a bowl of water in the microwave for minute, places the pieces in the water to warm them up for 30 seconds or so, then carefully take out (vareful not to burn your fingers), and finally assemble the male to female ball joints. The plastic will be much "softer" and forgiving - making the kits much easier to assemble.
