Published

on

You knew that Randy and the folks over at NECA would be cooking something up for Cold Iron Studios’ Aliens: Fireteam Elite at some point, and that time is now with the announcement of the first wave of figures based on the co-op shooter. Series One of the line kicks off with the Runner and Prowler Xenomorphs.

Per Toyark, both figures stand 9 inches tall, feature bendable tails with 30 points of articulation, and will come in windowbox packaging. The two figures are expected to ship June 2022, and retail for $39.99 each.

And if you’re looking for more NECA Aliens figures based on video games, the “movie deco” figures based on Capcom’s Aliens vs. Predator arcade game are out now.

Aliens: Fireteam Elite (which we reviewed here) is available now for Xbox Series, Xbox One and Xbox Game Pass, alongside the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC via Steam.
