With Neill Blomkamp now officially hired to write and direct a new Alien film for 20th Century Fox, you might have Aliens on the brain. Arguably the most relentless entry to the franchise, James Cameron's Aliens still leaves indelible marks on viewers' minds with its seemingly endless waves of Xenomorphs coming to sink their teeth and spray their acidic spit on Corporal Dwayne Hicks' Colonial Marines and Ellen Ripley. If the images of those Xenomorphs crawling through the ceiling and striding across the floor have stuck with you since first watching Aliens, then you might want to start saving your allowance money, because the folks at Hollywood Collectibles Group have revealed an upcoming offering that will be on display at this year's San Diego Comic-Con: a life-size Alien Warrior statue that depicts one of the territorial Xenomorphs from 1986's Aliens.
Unveiled by HCG in their official newsletter, the 1:1 scale Alien Warrior statue was recently examined in further detail with pictures taken by Jason Melcher that were showcased on The Toyark. In addition to an imposing, tall frame that's sure to spook unsuspecting guests to your home, the Xenomorph's emerging pharyngeal jaw is displayed, as well as its at-the-ready talons and many other frightening features.
Though there's still no official word on when this statue will be released, how much it will cost, or how many will be available, HCG has revealed that their Alien Warrior life-size statue will be on display at their San Diego Comic-Con booth #4331. Below, we have multiple looks at the statue (Thanks to Jason Melcher Photography via The Toyark for the photos!):
