NECA Life Size Alien Facehugger Foam Replica -Toyark Photo Shoot

Posted on October 19, 2016 at 10:14 am by Joe Moore under Aliens and Predator Toy News, Random Photo Shoot

Late last year, NECA released a great looking foam replica of the Alien Egg and Facegugger. The life size foam replica set cost almost $450. With the price being what it was, it meant many of NECA’s Aliens fans could only admire it from afar. Thankfully, NECA offered a compromise and a few months ago announced that the Facehugger replica would see a standalone release. Not only that, but the price would be less than $60! The Alien Life Size Facehugger is now available. Toyark sponsor Entertainment Earth sent one along and we have a gallery and review. Read on to check it out.

NECA Alien Life Size Facehugger Foam Replica

Pros

  • Fantastic sculpt
  • Excellent paint
  • Bendable tail works well
  • Very affordable

Cons

  • Individual fingers aren’t bendable

Overall
The Facehugger came packaged in a cardboard box with the Alien logo and a little Facehugger art on it. It was a bit too large for my photography display, and is mainly just a mailer. The Facehugger has a small tag with a barcode on it for retail stores. It’s easily clipped off. When the Egg and Facehugger set were originally announced, I had planned on getting that eventually. Even at $450, it was a steal for such a massive collectible and display piece. The big problem, for me, was the Egg. I simply had nowhere to easily display it. With the standalone Facehugger, the space issue became much less of a problem. I’d still like to get the egg at some point, but this is a fun way to hold me over.

The sculpt on the Facehugger is outstanding front to back. The intricate details, such as the fingernails and gruesome underbelly look very authentic. The paintwork here is simple, but effective. The Facehugger is mainly a yellow-ish tan, with washes of darker browns throughout. The underside uses much more reds and dark browns. There’s a clear coat over the whole piece, giving it a wet and slimy appearance. It measures at 3.5 feet long and is just about 2 foot wide from the two longest appendages. Being cast in foam, the Facehugger is extremely light weight. The tail features a metal wire running through it, allowing it to be bent and posed in a few different way. The assorted fingers, however, cannot be bent and are solid foam.

If you have the room, this is extremely easy to recommend. The price is just right and the Facehugger looks fantastic in hand (or on your face). Check out a few select photos below and a full gallery after that.

    Always wanted one myself and now NECA made it real (or close enough). Really glad that I bought it though, as is stated in the review, the fingers are unfortunately not bendable.

    Love scaring my girlfriend with it! (once hid it under her pillow - great times)... Also love the fact that my 2½ years old daughter likes to take it for a walk by dragging it by the tail

    Man, too bad the fingers are not bendable. They really need to make one with fingers clasped so you can wear that on your head!

    Far out that looks realistic! That under-side of the facehugger really looks like a big red sore vagina doesn't it? So intense. Gives a lot of credit to that theory that the underlying subtext of Alien/s is the fear, trauma and consequences of rape.

    Anyways sorry, I know that's way off topic and sorry if it's inappropriate. The creature looks amazing, so detailed! Awesome photo shoot as well, some great shots there!

    bendable fingers and it would have been an instant buy.
