Detailed sculpt? Check.
New articulation? Check. Creepy yet awesome paint application? Check.

This is exactly the type of SDCC exclusive that I can get behind, mainly because it's a neat/fun exclusive yet it's also non-essential. More toy companies need to follow suit with ideas like this (looking at you, Hasbro).

For all the people (including me) who are wondering WTF the "pizza monster" on the TMNT cartoon was, I guess they threw in a homage to Alien in some random episode:
This is a really great idea for a SDCC exclusive for the reasons The Heat already said- it's neat/fun yet non-essential. |

So. An Alien's been swimming in the sewers and it turned yellow/brown. Should we just call this "Poop Alien"?

Looks like the Warrior designs from Requiem so I'm definitely excited for a reveal of a traditionally colored one in the future.

If anyone is a Alien Club member and wants to buy an extra one for me, I would pay cost + shipping + a little extra.

Awesome, but I'll be hitting mine with a more 'cartoony' - vivid yellow.

God dammit. These SDCC/NECA club exclusives suck for Australian collectors. Going to get stuck with $200 scalper prices. Really despise NECA for locking us out.

Sadly I learned during my time in community college that it a dying actively. I actually got weird looks from people because I was reading a book.

I'm not having a go at you, but why do Con exclusives have to exist at all in cases like this? They could easily sell this on their eBay store and make money almost direct; or am I missing something?
I could understand it purely as an incentive for the Club, maybe. But even that's asking a lot from fans who have been laying down ever increasing money for years. It's not like you won't have Asian bootlegs within days... why enable those twats any further? I totally understand the BS licencing that goes on, but I'm not sure they couldn't at least sell this one direct. As stated before, it's also bloody confusing for fans trying to obtain lines they've spent so much time and money on! 'Is X Con only? Con and Club? Club only? TRU exclusive? Regional exclusive? NECA store only? Available on eBay?...' It's ridiculous for Americans, never mind the rest of the world - we'd need to be writing shit down every couple of days to keep up!

I think they're doing it this way so the Club members feel like it was worth it to join. I, however, did not join, nor do I feel like I missed the boat. What I will end up paying for this on eBay will still be cheaper than what they charge for shipping.
