NECA are releasing an Alien figure inspired by the Xenomorph designed and created by Tristan Jones for Dark Horse Comics' Aliens: Defiance series. Below are a couple new images of the new figure, up close. Check it out:

Members of NECA's Alien Club can pre-order their own figure now!

I'm quite a fan of this design myself. What do you guys think?

I'm growing quite fond of this new carapace design. And I'm so glad that NECA continues to use the triple-jointed leg design from the Isolation series, it breaks up the human figure into something truly otherworldly! Upvoted :)

Looks nice...

"And I'm so glad that NECA continues to use the triple-jointed leg design from the Isolation series,"

Indeed i think this is the RETCON look for all Xenos from now on, the Source i had did say that the new Xenos will have this kind of change to its anatomy to fit with the Queen design and also they would move on all fours more than stand up.

This allows them to get around more quicker,  and so they would move like say Chimps do

No Problem...

I think its just now Technology is as advanced that peoples visions can be put to the screen better... Alien was Fantastic... sadly by todays standards while the effects are great (but no dis-respect to those under 25, i think some do not really understand the limitations of effects from the 80's and prior).

But indeed back in the days, the Man in Suit was just that...  as Technology Evolves so does the chance to re-create a vision..

I know some Alien fans may not like the New Design, but its a evolution... in time we would get used to it....
