MISSED OPPORTUNITY: ALIEN 3 DISH MODEL

Ah Nuts! The "Micro-Wave Communication Dish" on FIORINA "FURY" 161 (Alien3) was up for sale at an online auction and I missed it! It went for $2,500 which I would have gladly spent to own it... if I had $2,500 to splurg. Pretty neat!

Oh, and in Alien: Resurrection, Gediman mistakenly calls it "Fury 16". Come on Whedon, know your source material.

*thanks, Andrew!

If FIORINA was a Lead works for making shielding etc... why does it have 3 huge kick ass radars ?!

Jim said...

Um... to communicate with The Company?? er... retrofitted once it became a Prison... to, um, communicate with The Company???

That's all I got... that movie is so flawed, so who knows!

It seems a bit like overkill !! I think it just made the shot more intersting !! :)
