Prototypes for 3 3/4″ action figures were developed for the movie Alien way back when but never produced. Super7 is changing that. They’ve dug up reference images and prototypes and are making the long lost figures real. Yeah, they’re rad.
The line up includes The Alien, Ripley, Ash, Dallas, and Kane. Pre-orders for the figures will begin at San Diego Comic-Con; they’ll be priced at $19.99 each.

Lego minifigs are all well and good, but this super-sized version of the classic White Spaceman is by far the best.

This is an actual functional figure, too, and even has a removable helmet.
