For Alien fans growing up in the 90s, it’s almost a certainty that your first Alien figure was either a resurrected and cybernetically augmented Colonial Marine from James Cameron’s Aliens or a wild and wacky hybrid Xenomorph XX121 produced by Kenner! My first Alien figure was certainly one of those hybrid Aliens – the Bull Alien.
It’s a figure that I’ve always had a soft spot for, and I’ve been impatiently waiting for NECA to release their take on the concept like they have done with many of Kenner’s older releases such as the Scorpion, Snake, Boar and Panther Aliens.
One of the more charming things about Kenner’s original figures was that they included little mini-comics, which were focused around the marine or Alien the comic came with. All of the mini-comics formed a loose narrative around the concept of the resurrected Colonial Marines – or Space Marines as they are called here – battling Aliens around the galaxy and seemed to be very much a stylistic continuation of the aborted Operation Aliens TV series.
