NECA Reveals Kenner Tribute Figure Packaging.

It’s Facehugger Friday; and everyone knows what that means, right? On Facebook today, NECA revealed packaging for their upcoming quarter scale ALIEN figure. This box is very much a tribute to the box the original Kenner toy was released in 40 years ago. So much awesome.

Here’s what NECA have to say about this item “The final packaging for our Quarter Scale Alien Big Chap is a tribute to the 1979 Kenner Alien figure. You can look forward to this figure shipping out to retailers on November 20th!”

No price is available just yet but this does look fantastic. It’s even packaged with the wire core tail coiled between its legs. At around 2 feet tall, it will be larger than the original Kenner item by around 20-25%. I wonder if there will be a poster included like the Gentle Giant figures from a few years ago had; and what’s the age rating on this item? I bet it won’t be rated AGES 5 AND UP. That would be bold, hilarious and probably illegal now. And the fantastic use of the logo featuring the figure’s head is great, too. Just like the original – except with the ‘gruesome details’ uncensored this time around.

Here’s some more images.
