Alien – 40th Anniversary Collection Wave 4 by NECA

Posted on December 10, 2020 at 2:22 pm by Joe Moore under Aliens and Predator Toy News

NECA Alien 40th Wave 4 Figures 001

NECA has released images and details for their fourth wave of figures celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Alien. This assortment features re-releases of Ellen Ripley and Joan Lambert in their Nostromo Space Suits. They will get upgraded using photo real face printing tech, and what looks like some additional paint adjustments throughout. It also includes an upgraded Big Chap Alien with a new paint scheme based on H.R. Giger’s original sketches. The wave is currently scheduled for a May 2021 release. See additional info below, and the new photos after the jump.

Released to theaters in 1979, Alien became one of the most successful films of the year and has since grown to be a timeless sci-fi classic. To celebrate the film’s 40th Anniversary, NECA is releasing an ongoing series comprised of new releases all year long, with at least nine different Limited Edition action figures to collect. Each release will be a limited production run, so act quickly!

Wave 4 will include previously released fan favorites Ripley(Compression Suit), Lambert(Compression Suit), and Giger’s Alien, with various upgrades and improvements. Both Ripley & Lambert will feature photoreal facial deco of Sigourney Weaver and Veronica Cartwright! Giger’s Alien features new paint deco based on HR Giger’s original concept artwork.

Each figure will come packaged in a 40th Anniversary Kenner inspired window box to commemorate the occasion.

    It’s been discussed. Just delayed, because - you know - 2020

    I got wave 2 pretty late, then got stuff that was more time sensitive, so I had been holding off until wave 3 to lump those 2 sets together. In hindsight, I probably should have just posted them a while ago.

    Well so much for the theory that this wave would be new versions of Dallas, Lambert and Kane in their crew uniforms.

    I have the original releases of Lambert and Ripley, so these are a pass for me. Especially with the higher prices today. The faces do look much better though. I wonder where these will be sold. It is nice for those who missed out on the original releases I suppose.

    The Walmart wave is still MIA, I hope I can actually find them in stores.

    To this day I've never seen a trace of the Target wave, I'm still pissed about it. They need to ship that wave out again.

    Why does Ripley look like Rocky Balboa?

    Wave 4? What wave has Ripley, space suit Dallas, and white Xeno in it? Because that's the only one I have seen so far. I'm still waiting to see Brett and Parker. Though, I don't have the money to buy them right now, so that means I'm bound to see them soon.

    That was wave 1, which was Target exclusive. Wave 2, with Brett and Parker was specialty shop and online retailers.

    Great. Just what we wanted. A 4th Big Chap and two space suit reissues.

    Honestly i feel it's a little tone death but completely unsuprising. NECA went the safe and easy route. Anyone collecting these wants the entire crew in their jumpsuits.

    There was a big chap in every wave plus the ultimate plus the SDCC exclusive so this is technically the 6th. I love me some Xenomorphs but i'm a little over Big Chaps at this point.

    When are they going to do Dallas, Kane, and Lambert not in a space suit?

    Actually, I probably should hold off on Parker and Brett because knowing my luck, NECA will release the aforementioned three in a big 7 piece box set.

    I was lucky enough to run across the wave 1 Ripley/Dallas wave just once months ago at a Target and never saw them since. That wave was clearly distributed poorly in limited numbers. I have a few friends still wanting that Ripley and will probably have to resort to Ebay now. NECA should do another run and maybe offer it on their website now like they've done with some of the poorly distributed Target TMNT sets.

    And yeah, I'm concerned about how easy it will be to find the Walmart wave with Kane and Ash. I never once saw the Walmart exclusive Super Shredder, and I'm thankful NECA offered it online through their website as an alternative to hunting at Walmart. They need to do the same with the rest of these Alien figures.

    Really? Because Ripley and Dallas are at like every other Target I go to.

    Wave 1 was in my targets like all summer, feel like I could still find them if I looked hard enough

    Makes you wonder what will be released 10 years later for the 50th Anniversary?

    So do you think they will do an Aliens 35th anniversary line next year?
