With acid spit, blades, blasters, sheer strength, sharp tails, pharyngeal jaws and many more deadly resources, the Predators and Xenomorphs have used their respective abilities to destroy humans and each other on the silver screen time after time. These shadow stalkers from space are legendary fright film figures and for a long time NECA has further immortalized their legacies with high-quality collectibles, and 2015 will be no exception, as several new Predator and Alien franchise figures were recently revealed by NECA at New York City's Toy Fair.

The prototype for the Alien 1/4 scale action figure, Dark Horse Predator comic book figure, and Aliens Power Loader figure were unveiled at the Toy Fair and were shown online with further details.

Alien (1979) 1/4 Scale Action Figure Prototype (slated for a May release): "From the original 1979 movie that shocked audiences and jump-started a legendary film franchise, the Xenomorph known to fans as “Big Chap” gets the deluxe treatment!

This incredible action figure stands over 22” tall, and has a hinged jaw that opens, revealing an inner mouth that extends for realistic movie action. It has almost 30 points of articulation, including double knee joints and a bendable tail, and extra attention has been paid to all the eerie details that made H.R. Giger’s designs for Alien so mesmerizing."

Dark Horse Comic Book 25th Anniversary Predator (due out in June): "Celebrate the 25th anniversary of the first Predator comic book!

The Dark Horse mini-series followed NYPD Detective Schaefer (Dutch’s brother), whose investigation of a string of brutal murders leads him to an army of Predators ready to converge on the city. This 8” tall figure recreates the Predator’s appearance on the cover of issue #1, and has all-new deco in comic book colors and shading.

Featuring plenty of articulation and a new ceremonial staff accessory. The deluxe window box packaging uses original comic book art and comes with a special bonus: a commemorative mini-comic reprint of Predator #1!"
