Definitely. Not a license I'd ever expect them to tackle, and certainly not this colorful. I'm intrigued to see what's in store though.

Does it say how many points of articulation the Xenos have? I would guess close to 6 or 7 by looking at them

That yellow Xeno looks badass, I can see some potential with this line, especially since it gives 3 3'4 inch collectors a cheaper alternative to Hiya Toys haha

Reminds me of the Chunky Cheese Pizza Monsters from TMNT '87.

Lanard is making some great stuff these days at prices that big names can't come close to touching.

I get that the detail isn't always as great as other companies, but they consistently make new molds with lots of articulation and the price is usually less than half of the products from the big names.

I remember when I stopped collecting 3.75" MU figures the price point was $12.99 it had reduced articulation and rarely had any accessories. At that same time Lanard was making 3 packs of "The Corps" figures that had 3 figures with more articulation than what Hasbro was offering, tons of accessories, and even included a motorcycle for $9.99.

I think this will be a great line to complement what they have already produced and I'm sure there will be a number of collectors that will want each different Xeno they make. Plus even though they are not in perfect scale these will also make great "smaller" Xenos for the Alien vs Predator arcade or Contra figures from Neca.

That's intriguing. They start doing Predators and they can have all my money.

Well this is unexpected.
I wish the aliens weren't brightly colored and the human figures were better than t-crotch repaints, but they do look fun and affordable.

Could be Disney trying out some smaller, less expensive action figure companies for their lesser known (vs Marvel/StarWars)properties. Lanard would probably be a much easier and cheaper purchase for the Mouse than Hasbro if they are looking into doing their own action figures down the road...

Good.
I like Lanard, and they could use a bankable product.

I think people are forgetting how many licenses they've had lately, Kong Skull Island, Rampage, Getting the Alien license makes a lot of sense. I would really like to see them get higher profile lines, especially how GI Joe isn't really a thing anymore and licensed product is getting more and more expensive.

Lanard could balance the market a bit better.

Fun and affordable! I'll be getting them. Packaged with a simple diorama backdrop is a plus. If the colors start to bother me, they can be easily repainted.

This is what makes ReAction 5 PoAs with rigor mortis even more depressing at $18.99.

And it comes with an action feature! This line is getting more and more exciting by the minute. The color scheme reminds me of the old Konami Aliens arcade game. (Best. Game. Ever. Or so says my 9 year-old self.)

Holy smokes. I'll be getting, like, 3 of each. I hope this takes off! This is what I want out of a "Kenner inspired" line. I hope more IPs to come, too.

The yellow one looks like it has ankle and wrist joints too.

They will probably only cost $10

I'm over here literally trying to buy less figures, and then they smack me with these. I dunno, there's just something really awesome about these, if I see them in the wild, I may have to bite.

Did they really have to make the Aliens look colorful? Jesus, why did Lanard had to screw this up completely?
