Hot damn! That is sexy. I know they churn out variants but damn, NECA has a great eye for them.

Is that meant to be Pred Xeno vision, or whatever the technical term for that is?

I do really like the look.
Do the joints hold up good? My original Grid fell apart out of the box and I haven't picked up an AVP Xeno since   :-\

It's actually very sturdy and I have not had issues with any of the joints.

It's fitting that this and discussion of the old Resurrection figures come up as the same time, as this figure very much reminds me of this special edition toy:

It's very apparent now that this is just the warrior alien with new forearms, head, and tail tip.

Is this an observation or a complaint? Either way, it's a smart use of the existing molds.

Both, cause that doesnt look anything like the Kenner version.  It looks, well, like they grabbed the warrior alien, slapped a couple new pieces and called it Gorilla alien. It's not like the Mantis that looks like they were actively trying to create an upgraded design.

Ouch. That's outside my price range for that. How does that compare to some of the other busts?

And the Series 10 gallery is up! http://necaonline.com/2016/12/closer-look-aliens-series-10-kenner-tribute-action-figures/?utm_campaign=AlienS10bloggallery&utm_source=necaIGFB&utm_medium=social

For less than twice this price, one can buy the Sideshow Maquette Jockey that is full polystone, more accurate and better painted, not to mention quite the same size. Come on NECA...

Something interesting about this Space Jockey though is the third Norstomo crew in a suit next to it that appears to be Lambert. Pic is small, but the colors of the suit can't be mistaken, also it's not clear to see, but I guess there's a kind of a grin on her face, not a neutral expression.
