NECA have released the first pictures of their Alien 18″ Action Figure based on Ridley Scott’s Alien.

In 1979, audiences were terrified by Ridley Scott’s genre-redefining science fiction masterpiece: Alien. In 2008, fans finally get what they’ve been waiting for: an Alien 18″ Action Figure from NECA! Captured in painstaking detail, the Alien hits shelves this spring. We’ll be releasing more details at NECAonline as they become available, but for now take a look at our first official images of this highly anticipated figure! And make sure to check back at NECAonline for the latest updates on Alien collectibles and more!

Thanks to Von for the news. Edit by Hicks: I’ve just posted up some high-res images of the 18″ Alien as well as some high-res pictures of Wolf. Thanks to Mark at NECA.

Im geting that figure nice    ;D  

Now that is an Alien.

This is what the Alien is a true masterpiece. Sure Aliens and Alien 3 had reasons for changing the designs. But Resurrection and AvP what the hell? They diverted too much from this bad ass.   Anyway great figure I'll definitely get this when it's released.

Very nice. It looks like the capture some of the more passed-over details like the forwards slope of the top front teeth and the small size of the 'stinger' on the tail. Those feet look a bit strange but I wouldn't be surprised if they're dead on. I know Kyle Windrix (spelling?) said he really wanted to make it the best original alien figure ever created.

that looks better than the 12 inch figure by McFarlane that i have!!!   :D     ;D  

Meh, I think it looks too....gangly.   That doesn't look like something that would go running through air vents, and hiding in the corners of escape pods.

looks great. now all we need is a predator in the same scale    ;D  

wow. that is very impressive. heres to hoping the production piece looks as good as the prototype.

I'm going to buy this for sure.

Production pieces never unfortunately look 'as good' as the prototype

wow that 18" figure looks badass even much better than what i got of the 12" figure from mcfarlene toys. why cant they make the aliens in the movies look more like the one from Alien which is a masterpiece and Aliens which is a masterpiece too. i loved the desgin in alien 3 but resurrection's desgin is ok but the desing in avp sucked. but i'm definately gonna add this awesome alien figure to my collection of Aliens/Predator collection.     ;D     ;D     ;D     ;D     ;D  

OH. MY. GOD. That thing is absolutely beautiful. I am SO going to buy this.

You have GOT to be sh1tting me.   :o    That looks awesome. I'm so glad I've been saving my cash instead of buying a figure from the Requiem line, because it's gonna be blown on this.

When they say 'painstaking detail' they ain't kidding! Giger would be proud!

Nice dome!

WOW This is a must get figure, I am going to get it if i pass my finals :)

Hellz yeah!I am Happy I saw this before I decided to order the Requiem Alien!

Nice   ;)  

I hope we see much more from NECA, I would love an AVP Queen.

By the looks of it NECA will be making a lot of new Alien and Pred figs. I hope they make Alien 3 and 4 figs.   ;D   Also, that 18in. fig looks very cool. The classic look makes me drool. Me being an Alien fan thats a need to get. I already have Hybrid.   8)  

What about the alien from aliens?  Still the best looking version EVER.  Would love to see that one made.  Would buy that one in a heart beat.

Well Mr.Spoon, the AVP-R Alien warrior fig NECA made and is on shelfs now is basicly the same kind of Alien design as the ones in Aliens. Their made for war.   >:D  

I want it   8)  

Excellent. I hope this line continues. With the high prices being paid for Hot Toys and Sideshow they can really get into their market and do well.

LOOKS FANTASTIC TOY!!!!!!!   8)     8)     :o     :o     :o  .

Now that is What the alien looks like. Future film makers take note..this is what it should be, not those wobbly headed attempts of the past few films!

If this is together in a fight with the original predator....  Awesom   :o  

That looks beautiful!

It is badass, but it's too big. Dunno where I could put it   ???  

Wen is spring?

The figure is overall amazing exept the feet, but I know they would be changed as well as the colur.

Can't wait to get this. Everyone else keep there figures in the box?

I do    :)   I m jus guna leave it in the box and look at it everyday

That is truely fantastic

looks cool

There will most likely be an unrated or uncut DVD version so itll be better.  As for the UK fans: just do yourselves a favour and go see the movie coz it is an improvement on the first.

Yo Shrek wtf is that link for? Anways can't wait for this fig.

I'm going to wait and get the 8 in. verison of the alien, they will be making an 8 in. one from aliens too.can't wait.
