Check back for updates as more info is released.

Preview of NECA Aliens Series 8 Weyland Yutani Commando

An army for the Marines to fight!
In a strange way I'm hoping these don't look good... cos then I'll need at least two of 'em!
Nice to see them doing some of the less iconic, but still cool stuff from the series.
I don't recall, why didn't they do a Vasquez figure?
BTW, with the internet being the source of misinformation that it is, I've heard both that Jenette Goldstein DOES and DOESN'T want her likeness used for a figure. I swear I've heard that Randy said that she had no interest.
However, straight from Jenette's Twitter account comes the real deal, and it seems that she'd be cool with it if approached: https://twitter.com/jenettebras/stat...04473041862657

There have been a few occasions (I think) where Randy has been coy about something so it would be a surprise when it was revealed.
Then, like a month or two later came the official announcement. When I asked him what was up, he said - you guessed it - "I was being coy."
IMO, good sculpts of Vasquez and Drake would be 'Must-Haves.' I can just picture them standing back-to-back in my display. Yeah, baby, YEAH!
Drake needs to come with an alternate melted head.
Yep finishing up the Colonial Marines would be a dream come true.

Huh. I don't even remember this character.
I love 'ALIEN 3' especially the BluRay extended edition; and that APE suit figure is the bomb! This looks like it's going be another terrific release from NECA.
-Windebieste.
85... but yes, you are otherwise correct.

These heavy clad guys escort Bishop II into the smelter at the end of the movie. Presumably their All Purpose Environmental gear will be enough to protect against attacks from the Alien that's loose and running around the facility (Acid blood, head bite, facehugger...)
EDit:
This is how they appear in the movie:
-Windebieste.
Will that thing's elbows even bend more than 10 degrees? That joint looks tight.

And every time I see that character I just see a dude in an anti-dog bite suit.

I shouldn't be surprised since so much of Dead Space is inspired by the Alien series(and the Thing and Event Horizon of course), but I didn't realize the cold environment suits from Dead Space 3 were so clearly based on this specific suit. Very cool.
AvP was supposed to made him be alive at a different time.
It's been confirmed by the production that Bishop II is human, but I like to pretend he is an Advanced Model Droid.
