Alien (1979)

This is just a bit of a placeholder post because I haven't as of yet actually blogged on the Alien spacesuits and they are truly iconic.  We'll be back this way just as soon as and with more words and pictures.

Something to consider between now and then is the possibility they these suits may have been inspired in part by the design of the Planeta Bur spacesuits.  This was suggested by Madmyk in a recent comment and it's indeed food for thought.  As an aside to that; I don't actually seem to be able to comment on my own blog at the moment so can't reply directly to such things however, your thoughts and opinions are always welcome so keep them coming and feel free to debate these issue amongst each other until I can sort this problem out and join back in.
