MEZCO TOYZ Announce Concept ALIEN Figure.

MEZCO TOYZ has announced their upcoming concept Alien figure and are assuringly releasing this as a feature rich item worthy of any collector’s attention. You can pre-order directly from MEZCO TOYZ right now for US$100. This fine looking interpretation of the prototype Alien suit is due for release sometime in June, 2022.Among the abundance of features this 1:12 scale (18cm tall) figure includes is “a seamless body designed with an internal skeleton armature that creates the feel of the creature’s suit” and accessories aplenty including a pair of eggs, multiple small Alien forms and a number of interchangeable body parts including hands and mouth parts. Here’s more of what MEZCO TOYZ have to say about this upcoming release “The aggressive eponymous creature has a hinged jaw with interchangeable inner mouths, as well as an interchangeable chest plate pierced by the ASSO-400 Harpoon Grappling Gun, as seen in the final scene of the movie. All of Alien’s accessories have taken on a semi-opaque, milky look to compliment the originally designed Alien suit and honor the conceptualization of what became one of the most iconic movie monsters ever created.”

The concept Alien suit is well documented. It was an experimental treatment of Giger’s design during filming in 1978 to create a version of the creature, in translucent form. The original translucent suit was abandoned during filming as it lacked durability and tore easily, making it impossible to use on set. It has subsequently been celebrated multiple times by NECA with three versions of this the prototype suit and it’s great to see MEZCO TOYS also tackle and embrace this unusual treatment of the creature.
