Alien Trilogy U.K. VHS boxset.

This is one legendary box set. Released in 1993 as a Limited Edition it included a  t shirt which mine is sadly missing. I do however have everything else which includes:


Four VHS cassettes, one for each film plus the making of Alien 3.




Twelve art prints, four from each film.




A booklet covering the making of all three films.



Three badges, one for each film.


A flyer advertising the Alien War live experience which ran at the Trocadero centre in London. Plus a 2 for 1 entry pass for the same event.


And a certificate showing the Limited Edition number.


This is how all box sets should be. When you are paying money for films you probably already have a box set has to be extra special, and this one is. The case is beautifully designed, the life size facehugger is exquisitely detailed. The artwork contained in the prints and booklet is amazing. The badges are a nice little extra and the Alien War flyer brings back good memories of going there with my cousin in the mid 90's. If your an Alien fan and don't already have this i recommend you keep an eye on Ebay for one. And if anyone happens to have two of the t shirts, can i buy one?
