Unboxing videos? Yeah. I love unboxing videos. I love unboxing videos made by Baptiste Coudert. So here’s a sweet little video featuring his disembodied French voice and hairy arms praising the merits of NECA’s recently released 7 inch tall 40th Anniversary figures. All 7 of them released to date (Ultimate Alien, Ripley, Kane, Translucent Alien, Brett, Parker and …yet another Alien, this one bloodied). Check it out. It’s great fun as always.

But wait, there’s more! Baptiste has also made a video review of Eaglemoss recently released statue of the Betty space craft that appears in 1997’s ALIEN Resurrection movie. It’s a great video featuring his awesome signature sexy French voice sans hairy arms. C’mon, man!  Don’t cover up the arms! The hairy arms are all part of the charm for these videos!  Ah, whatever. Anyway; it’s also a great video, well worth watching to witness Baptiste’s fine evaluation of this vehicle.

Normally, I don’t like to provide spoilers or make any announcements prematurely but on this occasion I’ll make a minor, teensy-weensy exception. Nonetheless, it’s kind of appropriate to tuck this little detail in this News item so here goes. In his correspondence with me, Baptiste has shared information he has had the good fortune to be in the right place at the right time simply by living in France. Which is really cool and all but that’s all I am prepared to say right now; but trust me. If this good fortune pans out, one of his upcoming ALIEN videos will be very, very special indeed! I for one am excited for this eventual release of the video.

You go, Baptiste! That French voice accompanied by hairy arms fondly handling and assessing space monstery goodness cannot be stopped! Do it.
