We’ve just had our first peek into what NECA will be producing in terms of action figures based on ALIEN Romulus. TOYARK has a gallery of photos NECA has on display for the San Diego Comic Con preview night. There is at least one previous unseen reveal among the lot. At the very least, it’s a small reveal with big implications.
Along with a fully articulated Romulus Alien figure NECA appears to be releasing a handful of other accessories. Of particular note is the confirmation of the long rumored presence of the original Alien creature in the movie, encased in a protective resin-like cocoon. We witness this mysterious object being recovered during one of the trailers and here, the contents are fully revealed. It is definitely, 100% Giger’s original designed creature we last saw being expelled by the Narcissus engines – and likely the source of all the creatures present aboard Romulus’ Renaissance station. I wonder if both halves of the cocoon will be included? Various small Alien forms such as a pair of facehuggers, a chestburster along with the new rifle we are already relatively familiar, also appear to be included as part of this line up. No mention of any human(oid) characters appear in TOYARK’s gallery or post; just go and check out their gallery for many more images of NECA’s ALIEN Romulus (and PREY) figures from SDCC24’s preview night. No doubt we’ll be seeing a ton of new photos from con attendees pop up online during the next 24 hours. The Big Chap is back! Hoo-boy!

Sure took yer time, Kiddo. Forty five years, to be exact. Nonetheless, loving the vibe.
