The upper arms, legs, tail, feet, parts of the head sculpt are all newly sculpted. What seems to be the same are mainly the hands and torso, as there was nothing that needed to change there to accommodate the updates.

Yeah, that all makes sense, and it certainly seems to give NECA the leeway to say "all new sculpt." Kinda.

BTW, I missed this pic. You replicated the pose the alien was in when it was hanging upside down from the ceiling right before it got Brett! Genius shot, dude.
