NECA’s long-running collection of Alien/Aliens toys has been nothing short of a massive gift to fans over the years, packed with so many different characters and unique offerings that you need a checklist just to keep track of all the awesome. What’s next? Series 10, now available for pre-order, is a full-on tribute to the classic Kenner Expanded Universe toys of the early 1990s. Straight out of Comic-Con, we’ve got all the images and info for ya today!
Series 10 includes the powerful Gorilla Alien, the Queen Facehugger, and Mantis Alien, which is cast in translucent green just like the original Kenner toy. Taking inspiration from those designs, the NECA team has transformed those Kenner classics into modern versions with all of today’s detail and articulation.
These highly detailed figures stand over 9″ tall and are fully poseable. The special blister card packaging is an homage to the classic card art as well, featuring custom illustrations and a color palette that ties back to the toy shelves of the early ’90s.
Each figure even comes with a reprint of the classic Dark Horse mini-comic that was included with the originals!
