We’ve known for a couple of days now that in August we could be watching Alien: Romulus with a promotional Xenomorph popcorn bucket strapped to our arms, but thanks to The Garfield Movie News Twitter account, we’ve now got our first glimpse at the upcoming mini-Xenomorph!

It ought to insert well enough into the Dune one's opening.
Probably a bit above the intended age range for Easter eggs, though.

There was another idea but for a drink cup that had a face hugger on its back and the straw was meant to be like it's Proboscis that feeds the embryo into the host.

Rather gross 🤮
Everything's so damn serious these days, it's kinda nice to imagine people running around the cinema with an Alien head pretending they are aliens.
It's the Covenant design or closely based upon it. Note the prominent ribbed pipe running across most of the side of the head positioned above an equally prominent bone-shaped design element. It's the Giger meets flayed man/skeleton Covenant look, completely different to the big 'B' small 'm' biomechanical look of Alien3;

This came to mind for me as well lol
You're certainly not bringing my mood down lol

Couldn't help myself but to think of this, seeing how it slides onto the user's arm.
Anyways, this is cute. No idea if my theater chain is going to get these (the Dune: Part Two one was unfortunately an AMC exclusive, but my main chain is Showcase), but if I can get one I intend to.

Either way, it will be a nice little collectible.
Seconded.
You know what? I would be all in if it was an ovomorph (egg) bucket.
The popcorn is irrelevant, I just want a big plastic Alien head and can't get one (easily).
Definitely looks like the Covenant head, think they just used a mold they already had on hand I guess.
They've been doing them the last few years at most of the major theater chains, at least here in the States. Some of them are surprisingly cool. They had one from THE BATMAN that looked like a replica of the cowl. I also picked up a rather large ECTO-1 light up bucket from GHOSTBUSTERS: AFTERLIFE that scaled up nicely with some of the figures I own. A little custom paint job and it looks rather impressive on display. Yeah, this is a thing now.
The way this one is designed you can wield it like Lex's Xeno shield from AVP.
Makes me think of that Alien Cook Book.
Mine too god damn it.
God my country sucks at having fun.
Maybe this one shoots acid.
As a major sucker for movie theater promo stuff, I'd just like to say: AHHHHHHH!!!!
