The year is 2122. The spaceship Nostromo, en route back to Earth, receives a signal from an intelligent life form. Investigating, the crew lands on a small asteroid, only to find a derelict ship, the fossilized remains of an alien, and countless egg-like objects.

Released amidst the massive sci-fi boom sparked by the success of "Star Wars" and "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," ALIEN was a landmark sci-fi horror film that shocked not only movie fans but audiences across the board. While an elite team of staff, including director Ridley Scott, screenwriter Dan O'Bannon, visual effects artist Carlo Rambaldi, and costume designer John Mollo, came together, it was undoubtedly H.R. Giger, who designed the alien (colloquially known as Big Chap), who left the most indelible impression.

More than 40 years since its release, the character "ALIEN Big Chap" remains as captivating as ever. This time, it is reborn as a statue, based on the soft vinyl figure produced by Marmit. In addition to its impressive 600mm height, the entire body features a water print for shading, faithfully reproducing its details. The head hood is a hybrid construction using soft vinyl. Complete with a base and plate, this item is perfect for interior display and an irresistible product for any ALIEN fan.
