They did sculpt it, it's just noticeably smaller. I doubt NECA is concerned with offending people when you look at past figures like the trilobite from Prometheus or Henrietta from Evil Dead.

I did a little bit of digging and found that H.R. Giger actually thought Alien Resurrection was an "excellent film."

Here is a direct quote from Giger himself.

"The creatures in ALIEN: RESURRECTION are even closer to my original Alien designs than the ones which appear in ALIENS and ALIEN 3. The film also resurrects my original designs for the other stages of the creature’s life-cycle, the Eggs, the Facehugger and the Chestburster. ALIEN: RESURRECTION is an excellent film."


In fact it appears the only thing he didn't like about Resurrection was that he wasn't given a credit for the film which he expressed very clearly in a letter to FOX in 1997.

It seems even the Father of the Alien design himself gave the movie and the creatures (which would include the Newborn,) his seal of approval. I think that kind of speaks volumes.
