The new Eaglemoss model of the USCSS Nostromo is now available. You can order it online. Details can be found here.
This does look neat. Here’s what Eaglemoss has to say about this new item, limited to only 3000 units worldwide:
The first ship available in the Alien & Predator collection the iconic USCSS Nostromo star freighter ship from ALIEN.
The USCSS Nostromo, registration number 1809246(09), was a modified Lockmart CM-88B Bison M-Class star freighter captained by Arthur Dallas, registered to the Weyland-Yutani Corporation.
This U.S.C.S.S. Nostromo ship’s architecture, particularly its interiors and the vast spires of its refinery structure, were inspired by the cavernous haunted houses and castles from Gothic Horror films such as Nosferatu.
The ship measures a whopping 20 cm long and produced in a combination of die-cast and high-quality ABS plastic. This vessel is a limited edition collectable, only 3000 worldwide, and each ship comes with a numbered certificate of authenticity.
Sounds good to me. Eaglemoss also have preorders available for their upcoming boxed sets of the Mantis and Snake Alien as well as their Bull and Gorilla Aliens. These are 2 of the 3 known Retro ALIENS collection sets themed on Kenner toys released in the 1990’s Eaglemoss have announced.
Here’s the third pair in this collection, the Scorpion and Panther Aliens.
