Today I added the latest ALIEN ReAction figure page to the guide dedicated to these collectible toys. This page features all 7 figures released on ALIEN Day in 2021 consisting of six Aliens along with a minor variant of Hudson. You can find this page here. This area of the site has grown to become a major section on HIDEOUS PLASTIC and it currently stands at 25 pages in length. It is dedicated to documenting every ALIEN ReAction figure item Super7 has released to date; and is now complete.
Want to know something about any of these dozens of ALIEN figures? You’ll find it here.
As to whether Super7 will one day return to making these grotesque collectible toys emulating classic 3.75 inch Kenner format, no details are available. A new ALIEN streaming movie and television show is coming sometime soon. Will Super7 be one of the companies to jump aboard the inevitable licencing train to produce more pocket size space monstery goodness for us to consume? …or is this the end of the line for the ReAction ALIEN product range? Will we see a 10th Anniversary celebratory release of ReAction ALIEN figures (Say, a pair of vac metal coated silver versions of the Alien and compression suited Kane) on April 26? That would be sweet and timely but it’s unlikely at this stage.
Nonetheless, Super7 have released a slew of product that is more than inspired by old Kenner toys. These modern day interpretations on Classic vintage play things owe their existence to a cancelled children’s toy line that failed to see production more than forty years ago. Commencing a decade ago in 2013, Super7 started filling this void and making these wonderful weird things available to us. Thank you Super7, Brian Flynn and your team for this most astonishing effort that made our childhood dreams (and nightmares) come true.
