Prime 1 Studio has released a teaser video for unannounced product relating to ALIEN Romulus on facebook. Much like today’s NECA announcement, very little information accompanies the post but it does confirm content is currently under development. 
Accompanying the video is the ambiguous phrase “Something is coming…”. That’s all the information we currently have right now. Nonetheless, Prime 1 Studio’s reputation for releasing extremely high quality statues and figures means expectations from this manufacturer will be high among fans. Again, no other details regarding price or availability are included in the announcement but this as yet unrevealed content is likely to be released around August 16, when ALIEN Romulus lands in cinemas worldwide.

These bilingual card variants are fascinating as they provide a window into the distribution of these figures not only across the entirety of North America but also into Europe as well. Thank you Eric Fisher for the posting this article. It’s a curious read for anyone who may be interested in obscure details regarding thirty year old children’s toys based on creatures that want to rip your face off. Yeah. That’s me.
Not being a US resident, I’m guessing the “Holiday 2024” release window refers to the end of the year. Here’s what the developer has to say about this upcoming title “This brand-new single-player, action-horror VR game features an original story that fully surrounds players within the terrors of the Alien universe. Designed by Alien fans for Alien fans, Survios brings their expertise to crafting this technically advanced, and frightfully immersive Alien virtual reality game.” I love ALIEN video games and have spent a lot of time playing them during the past quarter century. Yeah. That’s a long time. I don’t have a VR set up but that might change if this title is released to a positive reception.
I haven’t played these myself, I’m more of a video game junkie than a table top enthusiast. Nonetheless, I have been wanting to play the Ravensburger ALIEN Fate of the Nostromo board game for some time, though. Might have to try that title one day. Still, AvP2 and ALIEN Isolation have been great video games. I’m happy with those.
The range includes a long sleeve shirt, two short sleeve variants and a zip up hoodie. Prices range from US$30 to US$50 dollars each and all are available in different sizes. DON’T WAIT! Here’s what the supplier has to say about the limited availability of this item, “THIS DESIGN WILL VANISH ON MONDAY, APRIL 29 @ 1 PM EST. This will be your only chance to grab this design before it’s gone FOREVER. NO REPRINT, EVER. You’ll have to BUY… or DIE!” You can order yours now directly from

ALIEN Day has been celebrated ever since it was inspired by fan Alaric Hahn who proposed the date 4/26 (April 26) back in 2015. The date is inspired by the planet appearing in the ALIEN series, designated as “LV-426”. In following years, Fox adopted it as the date to be an opportunity to promote various official and licenced announcements. Typical announcements in the past included comics, books, action figures and a plethora of other merchandise items on (or around) this date. Recent years have seen declining involvement and support from Fox/20CS but fans around the world have increasingly adopted the day as one of celebration.
This figure does look clean but a significant number of parts are missing. A dome is included in the sale but it’s a reproduction part, a post market fabrication by a third party. Along with the absence of the original dome the following items are also missing: both arms, the dorsal crest between the shoulders and all four quad appendages immediately below that crest. A set of seven obvious holes penetrating the upper torso are testimony to these pieces having gone astray, leaving the figure in a dramatically incomplete condition. To offset these blatant deficiencies, both halves of the tongue are present and the mouth activation trigger appears to work as intended. This appears to be a standard US version of the toy and not one of the rarer Canadian samples. Both versions of Kenner’s ALIEN toy were distributed in Australia. A great item if its condition is of no problem to you if you live in Australia want to add one to your collection without having to pay (at least) another AU$100 for postage from the US.
Bucket leak or just a leaky bucket? We don’t know. Nothing public has been announced or released regarding this item nor any verification this leak is legitimate. Leaks of this nature can fall either side of the truth. Nonetheless, there’s some interesting features to be queried here. The head design appears to be inspired by the Protomorphs appearing in ALIEN Covenant. Maybe, the creatures in ALIEN Romulus share some design elements with that iteration of the Alien? We’ll have to wait and see.
This is a wonderful item and my very grateful thanks for permission to use these images of this sample go to 
One important feature part still extant on this vintage toy is the presence of the dorsal crest mounted between the shoulders. The fact this toy possesses this much sought after piece in place gives him value. While this is a good thing for this frequently missing part in situ, the dome and both tongue parts are absent. As is the left arm. Oddly enough, if an arm goes missing, it’s usually the left limb. Why so many of these vintage Kenner ALIEN figures lack the left arm rather than the right is a peculiar oddity I don’t understand. Nonetheless, loose limbs do become available for figure in this condition and when they do, the left arm commonly sells before any right arm also offered for sale. There’s been a few sales recently of loose items and this has been consistently the case. The left arm sells first. This imperfect figure is an ideal restoration piece. It is also equally perfect for tearing down and salvaging parts to be used in another build that may itself be missing a right arm and dorsal crest. Then sell the carcass – or remaining parts individually – on eBay. You might even get your money back.
