Any ideas what the neca item in the loot crate box was?
Based on the teaser image NECA posted on instagram, my prediction is "glow in the dark Alien eggs".

Does anyone have any Loot Crate experience? Have NECA been involved before? How exclusive are the "exclusives".

I have so far bought/ordered all of NECA's Aliens figures (but only two from the other films) and don't want to miss out (or pay through the nose on ebay) for a legitimate Aliens figure.  But I would be disappointed if it wasn't from Aliens, or was a hokey repaint like an all silver warrior or something.

I get that the surprise is the whole point, but is there any way to really speculate?  Randy hasn't dropped any hints?  I couldn't find anything online.

Pretty sure yesterday  I saw a twitter pic teazed by NECA of what looked like an egg carton

It won't be a full-on 7" action figure in the lootcrate, but Lootcrate stuff does tend to actually be exclusive.

Like I mentioned, NECA posted a photo on Instagram that seemed to show the cardboard "egg carton", but with the "Lootcrate" logo on it.

See, I'd be disappointed in that.  We have it already.

Will the Loot Crate still be available by the time that people have received theirs and can confirm the contents?
Again, I get that that's not the point, but I haev zero experience with Loot Crate.  ???

I would be a lil disappointed because I don't have any NECA figures and I had been crossing my fingers for an alien figure, but oh well.

No, by the time it starts shipping, it won't be available to buy anymore (either by design, or by being sold out).

Cool video.  Good job.  This neatly compliments my take on the same figure.  I really like it.  It does feel like NECA are exploiting their already established Series 2 sculpt and the figure can be mistaken for a quick and dirty cash grab; but the whole translucent feature does have great appeal when displayed with a back lit light source. 

You should try it!  This is where the figure really holds its own.

Jenette Goldstein has shared a proper view of her figure head:

I doubt Neca will do a version of the Alien warrior that looks like a guy in a costume. The versions we have are pretty accurate to what it was supposed to look like if it were a real Xeno. Though i would have liked a bit more articulation in their Aliens n Preds so i could get them in awesome realistic crouching poses.

I actually wouldn't mind a special edition action figure of the Dog Alien with plantigrade legs.

Potential future 'concept' figure?  Extant Dog Alien sculpt, maybe with series 2 Alien legs..? 

Would NECA re-purpose their moulds to do that kind of thing..????

Um... yeah.  I guess they would.  ;)
