In 1979, action figures were created for Alien, but never released. We wish we could have played with these figures growing up, but at least we'll have a chance to own them now thanks to Super7. We gave you an early look at the collectibles from the WonderCon show floor, but we now have a new set official images for the figures and pint glasses:
Action Figures: "In 1979, prototypes for 3 3/4” action figures for the ALIEN film were developed but never manufactured. Through our network of industry and collector contacts, Super7 has unearthed reference material and original 34-year-old prototypes and will now make these “lost toys” a reality.
Under authorization from 20th Century Fox, Super7 will produce the full series of ALIEN toys as part of our ReAction Figure Series (Retro-Action). Each is stylized exactly as items from the “golden age” of action figures with approximately five points of articulation, accessories, and period-authentic blister card packaging.
ALIEN REACTION FIGURES - $19.99 each, Available in August/September, Preorders will begin at San Diego Comic Con!
