Yes however "Skrulls" is tied to Fox not Marvel in the movie-verse because of the Fantastic Four reboot. At least thats my theory.

[bmorr]

fiiiine. big ass Shitari ears.

[thechris]

Haha, this looks like Marvel vs. Star Wars. Yup this literally looks like someone put Marvel figures into a dio with Star Wars figures.

[tlasjr]

How much time do they have to make FF3? Have they ever released details of the rights agreement? Do they maintain the rights to charecters not seen or implied in the movies made?
It doesnt seem consistent. For example they had to rush first class into production to avoid losing xmen but wolverine came out well after silver surfer.
I dont care what they call the liens anyways, just curjous.

This looks similar yet possible perhaps im thinking this guys race check out his foot and the mysterious ailens feet although no two thumbs

[bmorr]

looks(or is) a golden looking beta ray bill?

[Jason Abbadon]

Whatever they'e supposed to be, yu can bet they'll repaint into some nice Skrull shock troops...but those feet have to go! Open toes on a battlefield is just poor planning.

[martymcfly160]

the aliens in the movie sure as hell aren't skrulls unless these directors/producers are gonna try and redesign them but i think its funny how hasbro is trying their best to not release anything about these aliens. we don't even have these figures in stock and the only figures of the aliens we have are the ones in this diorama.

[Boba Fettuccini]

Oh hey, another movie alien debate! We haven't seen any of those in a long time! Carry on boys, this one is sure to be more conclusive and constructive than the others.

[Jason Abbadon]

Well, if we really wanted that we could just read a review of the movie from the UK.

But speculation beats spoilers any day!

[decepticon_mark]

Without giving any spoilers away, there is a quote from Whedon over on comicbookmovie.com where he does give the identity of the aliens at a press confrence.

[Jason Abbadon]

It's the Rigellians, obviously- they look exactly like that in every way.

HA! Checking out that site it seems I was, as always, 1000% right!

Quote:

"The alien race are the Rigilleans -- or a version of them -- because they are not one of the key races and they don’t have a storied history. That wasn’t the point. I know this debate will go on long after I’m dead. I would say it was the Kree-Skrull race. Dont blame me on this, I just do whatever Jason Abbadon says...he hits me if I get too lippy."

Here's a nice closeup of the alien- he does indeed sport a purple inge to his greyish skin- so the figs are not too off there.
Looking at them, the figs are a good likeness.

And a shot of the one fig we need above all others.

10 stories you might have missed: The Avengers aliens really arent Skrulls

"The alien race is the Chitauri, or a version of them," the director revealed, "because they're not one of the key races in the story and history. That wasn't the point."
