Yup, eBay. There isn't anyone currently making Predator or Aliens figures so it's either on-line retailers or eBay.
McFarlane Toys made some killer Predator figs for one of their "Movie Maniacs" line a few years ago. The Stealth and Celtic ones were very cool.
Someone also made anniversary Aliens figures around 2000 - 2001 that looked pretty decent as well.

Yep, Ebay. And I meant what I said about have fun. $$$
I look sometimes but just can't fund the back-collecting right now.

Couldn't find that anniversary figure you were talking about, but I did find those Movie Maniac figures. I also found a ton of Aliens Kenner made. Their very cheap so I'm shooting mostly for those.

Does anybody have a list of all the Alien figures made by Kenner?

The Kenner Aliens are WAY outdated. They were awesome back like 10+ years ago, but by today's standards, they are weak at best.
If you want some good Aliens and Predator figures, eBay really is your best bet. The McFarlane AVP ones, series 1, are excellent as are their Movie Manics ones.
If you want larger figures, and have the cash, Hot Toys has been putting out some very cool figures that are 12" tall. Sideshow imports them to the US. You can get those on eBay as well or at many online retailers.

Dang. All the other alien figures cost like 20-30 bucks each.

So anybody know what alien figures are good, but at the same time cheap?

You'd need a time maching for that.

Yeah, but for the price of a time machine you could get all kinds of figures. ;D

Yeah, but for the price of a time machine you could get all kinds of figures. ;D Yeah, but the way the Universe works is that we'd all be too broke from buying the time machine to buy any of the hard to find figures or ones we know will be worth a lot of money in the future. But that's Karma (the metaphysical representation of debt <good and bad>) for ya. This for that, kinda like you can't have a 1 sided coin, just doesn't work without the reverse, obverse, and middle/edge. I still remember holding (and not buying) X-Men #94 and #95, multiple Megos & Micronauts, and tons of other cool things over the years. Not to mention all of the stocks and precious metals I could have bought if I had known that they would would (or will) be very profitable.
