The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

 Post subject: APONE's Disappearing Rank???
PostPosted: Tue Feb 11, 2025 1:28 am 

Country: United States
I have been doing some research on the BDU's worn by Apone and noticed that the Sgt. stripes seem to disappear on occasion. So, I am guessing wardrobe had multiple jackets made for him (The camo pattern changes as well from scene to scene). The the third picture is a very poor screen grab that I took from when Apone (stunt?) grabs the incinerator during the chest bursting scene.

I was wondering if anyone had any ideas of when the last two 'behind the scenes' pictures in the APC and corridor were taken? Are they publicity stills, screen test or actual shooting days?

Thanks

That checks out. Screaming eagle (ground marines) or ship patch (flight crew) on the right. Flag and Rank on the left.

Ha! :D Total newbie mistake. I guess my mind automatically put rank on both arms per Army regs. Thanks for taking it easy on me.
