“Get away from her. You bitch!”

While Sigourney Weaver’s Ripley may be the centerpiece of the Alien franchise, I don’t think Fox understands the potency of popularity behind the character “Newt” from James Cameron’s Aliens.

But you want to know who does? NECA, who just kicked off “Alien Day” with a look at their own Rebecca “Newt” Jorden 7″ Scale Figure.

In the director’s cut of Aliens, we learn that Ripley had lost her daughter, which sets the stage for her “motherly” connection with Newt, who was played by Carrie Henn. While this aspect is lost in the more action-oriented theatrical cut, Cameron still gets this point across, which makes the relationship between the two one for the ages.

In fact, Neill Blomkamp just revealed that Newt is an intricate part of his Aliens followup that’s currently on the back-burner to Ridley Scott’s Alien: Covenant.

NECA has confirmed that Newt will “mostly” be a San Diego Comic-Con exclusive, which means you better have your credit card ready this July. Also revealing today is NECA’s Vasquez action figure, which only sweetens the pot. “Anytime, anywhere, man!”

Rebecca Jorden, known to most people as “Newt“, was the sole survivor from the Hadley’s Hope settlement on Acheron following a Xenomorph infestation at the colony. She was the daughter of Russ and Anne Jorden and sister to Timmy Jorden. The United States Colonial Marine Corps unit which was dispatched to the moon in 2179 discovered her hiding in the colony’s ventilation system. She subsequently became close to Ellen Ripley, who later risked her own life to rescue Newt from the Xenomorph Hive.

Newt was one of four people to survive the infestation on LV-426, along with Ripley, Corporal Hicks and the android Lance Bishop, who was badly damaged. She later died when an EEV carrying her crashed on  Fiorina “Fury” 161.

The Kenner throwback Ripley is now available on Toysrus.com.
