12-inch Deluxe Alien Action Figure
Here is the fearsome Xenomorph in all its horrible glory. McFarlane Toys has devoted another series of Movie Maniacs to Alien vs. Predator. This is the first 12-inch scale Alien deluxe action figure from McFarlane. Ellen Ripley and friends fought hard to keep this creature off their ship. Now you can own it for your home! And don’t forget to check out Socreepy’s summary of one of my favorite horror movies - you guessed it, ALIEN!!

Frightening Fact:
The Alien’s life cycle, which involves laying eggs in the stomach (from which the hatchling alien will later burst out) was inspired by the spider wasp, which lays its eggs in the abdomen of spiders. This image gave the screenplay writer such nightmares that he included the concept in Alien.
