I get that you don't want to (excuse the pun) alienate the mass market with a restricted release that's a "must have", but even a figure with a new headsculpt, or accessory, or new anything would of been better! Ocassionally NECA has done some repaints that are clever/novel enough to warrant a second purchase (the jungle demon predator for example), but the volume of alien repaints is just too much. I just don't think this is good enough for the "reward" for buying all the club figures, and concept of it is a stretch in any case, the box art inspired, really? I hate to sound like a hater, but I'm just very disappointed.
Maybe a happy medium would be diorama pieces instead? Not cardboard cartoon stuff, but things like melting space deck effects and cocooned figures? With a bit of pre-planning they could even be designed to fit together. That would entice me.

Committing to buy every figure in the range is the real stretch. Especially with the Prometheus stuff.
