heh Neca always messes up the information on what they base their figurines on.
A sequel sounds good but the first film should be critically well received as well as have a nice box office hit before they talk about sequels, otherwise they are jumping into something with both feet.
As for the connection to alien, i am not sure but i think i have seen urn like objects in one of the pictures and in the original concept, the second stage xenomorph was in a urn not an egg.
