Thanks to the new NECA figure images we have a clearer look at the Scorched Xenomorph from Alien: Romulus and how it differs in appearance to the original Bigelow Chap / Kane's Son Xenomorph from the first movie. There are quite a number of differences, check out some photos for reference below:

We know the Xenomorphs born on Romulus were spawned from Big Chap's DNA, could they have spliced other things or tampered with the genetic makeup to create a less-than-perfect organism?

I like the Scorched Xenp's design, looks like a mix of 1979 Big Chap and the Alien Resurrection cloned Xenomorphs. While the Scorched Xeno appears bigger than the Big Chap, I just noticed that the skull eye sockets are smaller.

It looks like the Scorched head is a bit more bloated than Big Chap's as well which might explain why the eye sockets look smaller. Scorched looks deformed to me, disproportionate body parts making it look creepier by all accounts. An abomination no doubt.

I'm curious why the Scorched has these hook-like appendages on its feet, though:

Yep, these creatures didn't come from the standard Ovomorphs but were artificially recreated in a lab (using the black goo I suppose?). In the final trailer, there's a monitor that has an image of a Facehugger and a prompt that says "printing". 

I wonder if we will see more Xenomorphs other than the Scorched.

Buckle up, 3 weeks left.

Lean and hungry. The claws on its feet are not looking good though.
