Xenomorph Concept Edition

Summary

Hmm…The Xenomorph Concept Edition stands out within the One:12 Collective line as a unique homage to H.R. Giger's original design that was never realized in film due to technical limitations. Its pale, translucent coloration and semiopaque accessories reflect the conceptual phase of the iconic creature, offering a distinctive aesthetic compared to previous versions. This limited edition figure captures the "what if" scenario of a translucent Alien, making it a compelling addition for collectors and fans of the franchise.

Nothing here yet. Know its story: the character's origins, the design, how it was made?

Pros!

  • Unique translucent design inspired by H.R. Giger’s original concept, offering a different aesthetic compared to the standard Xenomorph.
  • Enhanced paint applications with a semi-opaque, milky look on accessories, contributing to the overall creepy design.
  • Includes multiple accessories such as eggs, facehuggers, and a chestburster, all made from a translucent plastic, enhancing their visual appeal.
  • Features a seamless body with articulated joints, allowing for dynamic posing despite the figure’s delicate nature.

Cons!

  • Primarily a color variant of the existing Xenomorph figure, lacking significant new features beyond the translucent design.
  • Concerns about the durability of the seamless body over time, with a risk of cracking if posed in extreme positions for prolonged periods.
  • The frosted dome obscures visibility of the internal skull detail, which may disappoint collectors looking for intricate internal designs.
  • Packaging design lacks variety, presenting the same image on both sides, which some collectors find unsatisfactory.
  • High retail price compared to the original figure raises concerns about value relative to the perceived quality and lack of paint detail.

Product Description

Based on the originally intended design for the Alien suit by H.R. Giger, that was never used in the final film due to insurmountable technical challenges, this pale, translucent Xenomorph is a limited edition and never to be produced again by Mezco.

The One:12 Collective Alien “Concept Edition” features a seamless body designed with an internal skeleton armature that creates the feel of the creature’s suit from the film’s developmental stages. The aggressive eponymous creature has a hinged jaw with interchangeable inner mouths, as well as an interchangeable chest plate pierced by the ASSO-400 Harpoon Grappling Gun, as seen in the final scene of the movie.
