Like I said I totally get that and I agree. They somehow did not make that mistake with the Prowler and Burster with the face area. (Which can be fixed with some hot water, cold water, and water texture paint.) But better the face than the whole figure for me.
Also it does come out taller than all the humans and some of the Predators that I have.
It can also run on one arm and one leg with the others in the air it is so well balanced, good luck getting "the ultimate" doing anything similar.
If a Runner figure can not do this pose then I think it does not succeed as a depiction of the main trait of it honestly, that being the posture, and elegance in that particular way of moving rather uniquely from the other Aliens.
