The long delayed third assortment of Alien 40th Anniversary Figures from NECA look to finally be getting a release later this month. A pre-order listing is now available on Walmart.com, with the set listed for release on January 14th. This wave features a Big Chap Alien, an all-new Ash, and a re-release of Gilbert Kane with a new head sculpt.
Alien – 40th Anniversary – 7” Scale Action Figure (Set of 3 Character) – NECA
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 Wave 3 will include Ash with the licensed likeness of Ian Holm, and for the first time, Kane in compression suit with the licensed likeness of John Hurt! Kane will come with 2 interchangeable heads, while Ash will include a severed head and a variety of accessories. Also included in this wave is a classic Big Chap. Each figure will come packaged in a 40th Anniversary Kenner inspired window box to commemorate the occasion.
The set is priced at $89.99. Click the link above to order. You can see some official photos after the jump.

Thanks for the heads up! Moved it out to its own thread.
Aw, you have to buy them all together? That kinda sucks, I didn't want that Kane, but now I have to get him in order to get that neat Ash, huh.
Thank you! Just ordered.
Be blessed my friends, that ain't no preorder link. I ordered mine last week, received em on Monday!
Really didn't want another big chap but it was worth it to get Kane and Ash without the fight at retail. I had been using a modified Dallas head as Kane for ages so it's nice to finally get a proper Mr.Hurt in there-

...and to head off the complaints about how short Ash is- Ian Holm was 5'5. Not to bad a scale next to 6'3 Yaphet Koto. The Pressure suits are all a bit large- but overall I think they did a decent job scaling everyone
Shame Neva never hit Ripley's face. I kept holding out for a 1/4 scale Ripley. The first release with the long hair is better than the new release with the long hair for her.
Still hoping NECA does 1/4 scale her, but NECA seems to be only producing Turtles in that scale and nothing else.
BTW, is Ash's face painted, as opposed to being cast in flesh-tone plastic? If so that's a bummer, because it contrasts the Parker, Brett, and Ripley figures.
Wow, for once Walmart screws up in my favor. I got Kane and TWO Ash figures today in the mail instead of Kane/Ash/Big Chap. I didn't need another Big Chap. I think I'll try to resell or trade that extra Ash.
Mine came today. The look stunning, but as always with Neca, there are surprises. The leg snapped right off on Ash at the right knee. Huge air bubble in the peg. Man thought this crap was over with neca.
