New NECA Figures Imagine the Aliens from the ‘Aliens vs. Predator’ Arcade Game as Movie Characters

Published

on

NECA once again steps outside the box with their Aliens line of action figures, this time around turning three Xenomorphs from the world of arcade games into “movie deco” figures.

This particular batch of monsters is from the Aliens vs. Predator arcade game from 1994, which brought the two franchises together long before the movie ended up getting made.

NECA explains, “The unique Alien adversaries seen in the game get the movie treatment, with new deco imagining their look had they been included in the subsequent movie. The figures use the super-poseable Ultimate body, with over 30 points of articulation and bendable tail.”

Included in the mix are…

  • Arachnoid Alien
  • Chrysalis Alien
  • Razor Claws Alien 

The figures stand approximately 9″ tall. They’re shipping in October 2021.
