Years back, a company, (I think it was SOTA, but I could be wrong), was trying to get a "Creator" line off the ground. Hitchcock, Romero, Spielberg, Cameron, Lucas, and Tarantino were slated, among others, but the only rights they could get were Hitchcock and Tarantino, so the line never happened. Again, this is what I remember, I'm probably wrong, as it was at least 10 years ago. I just recall reading a blurb about it in a magazine.

I think this is a neat figure, and a good way to flesh out the marines, while trying to secure more likeness rights, I'm sure. Can't really complain about them releasing this before others, if they don't have the rights. I'll take a non-essential figure over no figure any day.
