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!

Hey bud,

If you can (not sure how big your plums are...). I'd pull the ab-pad/cod up a couple of inches.
The main belt is supposed to sort of sit over the main abdominal armour plate a bit.

Image

The bottom of the chest plate and the abdominal plate are designed to tesselate (after a fashion).



My initial feelings are that the belt was probably originally supposed to sit below the abdominal armour on the Ab-pad, judging by Terry's original concept drawing. But in reality, it probably got hoiked up during filming by them yanking on the grenade straps. Hence the belt sitting over this bit of the armour.
But hey ho...

That's just me.


Enjoy Collectormania.
