We all know by now that Shaw is having some diffuculties in the medical pod, being attacked by what looks like to be a first-gen facehugger. But if you look closely, it seems ditinctly like a chestburster.

To the left it looks like a tail! I don't know, that just what it looks to me. Thoughts?

And if you look much closer, you will see an umbilical cord going to Shaw's stomach. In later pictures, she has staples on her abdomen. Not a chestburster, but some kind of awful offspring compliments of an infected Halloway- at least per the majority of speculators. It has been surgically removed by the medical pod. Creepy looking rascal!

Yeah, it looks like some freaky alien version of a baby lizard.

Looks like a hybrid of a chestburster and Hugger. Whatever it is, it looks VERY threatening. Great job with the footage Jeremy!

Wasn't there some early footage, or pics, of something squirming around in Shaw's stomach? I'm betting this creature was "c-sectioned" out...

Could she have been infected by the mutant somehow to create a weapon that would then kill the rest crew?

I can see this being the First Gen type, coming from Holloway and into Shaw...Not as Biomechanicl as the Alien, yet because it has yet to cross with the Space jockey perhaps...

Another thought: Could this creature eventually go on to spawn the eggs that Kane eventually finds in the hull of the derelict???

Just as there's no traditional Xenomorphs in this movie (as according to R. Scott), I'm betting there won't be any other creatures from the original movies as well. Eggs, facehugger, chestbursters, etc.

What's suppose to be the difference between a chestburster and a Xeno?....they one and the same thing...so a chestburster is a newly born xeno....just never really got why people have separate names for these beloved monsters..;)

The hi-Res Trailer is over at Apple Movie trailers and you can clearly see a mouth visible and the smooth head. She had a C-Section, a messy a tube from all the wiggle from her new child.... I guess the Xeno, we think of started off different and then evolved...by Hollow's hand perhaps?

Thinking this is something new, or a pre-alien. Hoping the xeno's are an old species. Having the crew accidentally "create" them will be a let down to me.

I may work for the company, but im really an OK guy.

@ genjitsu17...don't even care how they come about...as long as they do...we were the hosts in Alien...so the Xeno we know and love share bit of our DNA...if the Prometheus crew accidentally created the precognition of the Alien creature (xeno) ...they certainly did not do it alone!

I agree with Juxtapose, and even still this creature is obviously got to be the first gen. If its not then how did the first xeno come about?? And for those of you who keep calling the Sj's ship the Derelict..... thats not what it is called... that was a word used to describe the ship in the 2nd movie Aliens. So ya.

Hmmm... wait a second. If this offspring is theoretically a first-gen xeno- not having any Space Jockey DNA or having mixed with David yet- then why is the Xeno on the wall in the cave (or inside the derelict) appear to be the fully-formed version we are already familiar with? It seems to me that the xenomorph, in the form we know and love- already exists, somewhere.

Since it one of the first xenos, it could be hibrid of facehugger and chestburster, a faceburster.

Calling it the derelict is fine since we now know FOR SURE Aliens is canon. Just read the Weyland site for LOADS of proof. (Acheron, powerloaders, marines) Guess some people are still fighting the truth.
