The machine pistol totin’, cigar smokin’ synthetic xenomorph known as ‘Jeri’ is being added to the ever growing roster of Eaglemoss “definitive collection” of ALIEN figurines.  The upcoming figurine can be pre-ordered now from Big Bad Toy Store.A unique character, part android – part Alien, Jeri appears in the ALIENS Expanded Universe and was featured in the Dark Horse comic (and novel), ALIENS: Stronghold.  Jeri will be hand painted, cast in metallic resin and be in 1/16 scale.  Estimated availability is expected to be sometime in December, 2018.  Pre-order now.

Jeri is definitely one of the more outlandish characters in the entire ALIEN Universe.  I’m looking forward to seeing him being released by Eaglemoss.  On the other hand, wouldn’t it be nice if NECA were to pick up and release their own licenced Jeri figure?  Certainly, it couldn’t be difficult.  They could use their already extant ALIEN: Isolation figure with its digitigrade legs as a base, alter the hands so they can hold a firearm (be it the machine pistol, a pulse rifle or Ripley’s flamethrower; and hey, Presto!, you have Jeri!

After all, how difficult would it be to add a cigar?  C’mon NECA!  You’re falling behind.  Eaglemoss is churning out product and keeping fans happy.  So, what are you going to do, NECA?  Huh..?
