Check Out Sideshow's ALIENS Power Loader Statue
When I watched James Cameron’s Aliens as a kid it was the coolest freakin’ thing ever! I had never seen anything like it and it completely blew my mind. I wanted to be a Colonial Marine and of course, I wanted to strap in and operate one of those awesome-looking Power Loaders! That thing was so badass.
Sideshow Collectibles has a crazy-detailed statue of that Power Loader that you can now buy, but it’s not cheap. Here are the details:
The Caterpillar P-5000 Powered Work Loader, commonly referred to as a Power Loader, is a commercial mechanized anthropomorphic Exoskeleton used for lifting heavy materials and objects. More importantly it was also used by Ripley to defeat the Alien Queen!
Painstakingly recreated from the original blueprints, no detail has been spared to make this the most accurate Power Loader replica ever made.
Presented for the first time ever as a Studio Scale model - exactly the same size as the model used in filming the movie! Standing an imposing 33” tall, and 25” wide this truly is an EpicTM scale model!
Amazingly detailed, it features a webbing operator harness made of real material, a working light-up hazard light on top, and an accurate weathered finish.
As with all Hollywood Collectibles pieces this museum quality Studio Scale model is constructed from heavyweight polystone and mixed media, then hand painted to the finest detail. A HCG Exclusive Edition of the Power Loader is also available, click here for more details.
The statue will cost you $1200, but you can always just look at it in the photos below for free!
