Chinese toy manufacturer 52 Toys (Five Two Toys) is showing off several new licenced ALIEN themed products at this year’s Wonder Festival event, currently being held in Shanghai. It looks like they are displaying at least three new ALIEN products at the event. A highly stylised Alien figure in the 1/12 scale, an articulated facehugger with what appears to be wheels underneath; and what also appears to be a new entry in their ongoing series of ALIEN MegaBox figures. I’m curious about that facehugger. I’m hoping there are some cams – or other mechanism – inside the toy that will allow the legs to move up and down as it is pushed forward. That would be super neat feature not done previously to my knowledge in a toy or figure. The other item of significance is the Alien which can fold up and become a cube. 52Toys have now made a variety of these Alien themed MegaBox figures. An Alien, Queen Alien and powerloader have been afforded similar treatment in the past, each of them being able to use their articulation to fold and reduce the figure to the volume of a small cube. There is no mention of price, availability or when these pieces will become available. You can visit 52Toys current product range on this Facebook page.
