'Alien: Romulus' Xenomorph popcorn bucket

[Cosmic Incubation]

The way this one is designed you can wield it like Lex's Xeno shield from AVP

This came to mind for me as well lol

I wonder if the dome is supposed to be rippled or if that is just the lights playing on it? The bottom jaw seems much wider too, almost like a beard.

I really like it! I know some folk here are seeing the Covenant head due to colouring, but I think looking at the side it's definitely inspired by the Alien 3 runner head (in fact I'd go and say its shape compares nicely to that tweet Fede Alvarez shared before he was announced as working on Romulus, where he put of a photo of the (rather battered)prop for the runners head and asked fans for help in identifying which movie it was from. :-D

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;

I think this is really cool   

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.

A human skull (fake lol) could be nice for the next predator entry.

Saw some odd other suggestions on google of an egg as a overmorph as a popcorn bucket/box

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 🤮

I once had an idea for an Alien Easter egg with jelly facehuggers.

Probably a bit above the intended age range for Easter eggs, though.

I'm surprised the egg popcorn bucket hasn't already been done.

[426Buddy]

Yeah I think an open egg would have been more functional as a bucket. But the head has more of the "cool" factor.

Egg bucket. I want my egg bucket.

All new definition of an Easter basket!

[DarkAshenWolf]

Looks cool!

AvP vibes in the movie's 20-year anniversary! Let's gooo!

[Thatguy2068]

Is this Popcorn Bucket also breedable?

[skhellter]

With enough effort
